Abstract

Abstract The lock for roller shutters comprises a hood-shaped body secured to the roller shutter and presenting a cavity directed downwardly, in such a manner that, when the roller shutter is lowered to its closure condition, the body encloses within its cavity an anchoring ring fastened to the threshold of the door. A straight bolt is mounted axially slidable in the lock body, so as to be capable of engaging the anchoring ring. A cylinder lock mechanism, also housed in the body, ensures the locking of the slidable bolt in its closure position.
