Description
E05C covers bolts, latches, and mechanical fastening devices specifically designed for movable wings such as doors and windows. These devices secure wings in closed or open positions and include barrel bolts, slide bolts, toggle bolts, espagnolette bolts, and similar locking mechanisms operated manually or semi-automatically. The classification encompasses both the fastening hardware itself and integrated fastening systems that function as part of door or window assemblies, excluding padlocks and key-operated locks which are classified elsewhere in E05.
