ABSTRACT:
A locking device comprises a support attached to a door and a striker attached to an adjacent door jamb. A bolt carried by the support includes coplanar ends received in slot members of the support. A central offset section of the bolt carries a padlock which is movable between locked and unlocked positions. In the locked padlock position, the padlock body abuts a shoulder of the support, preventing the bolt from moving. In the unlocked padlock position, the padlock body moves downwardly to clear the shoulder and allow belt movement. The locking device is symmetrical about a vertical axis and accordingly can be used without modification on left-swing and right-swing doors. The support and bolt are designed to be made from simple stamped metal pieces.
