A
Guide to Builders Hardware Terminology:
Other Door Fastening Devices Chain Door Guard. A connectable device used to limit the extent to which a door can be opened. Door Bolt or Fastener. A mechanical device operable from one side of the door and used to fasten the door in a closed position. Roller Latch. A mechanical device used to fasten a door by means of a rolling plunger which engages a socket or catch. These have become somewhat obsolete where selfclosing or automatic closing is used due to the resistance a roller latch provides against complete door closing. They are not permitted in health care facilities under some codes.
