A locking system is disclosed for locking and unlocking a door such as a cockpit door between the cockpit and cabin of an aircraft. The locking system has a door held by hinges on a door frame and movable between an open position and closed position, and at least one closing means that can lock the door when it is in the closed position. The locking system includes a compressed air source that can be coupled to the closing means to move the closing means from an unlocking position to a locking position by supplying compressed air, and at least one venting valve coupled to each of the closing means in order to conduct compressed air away from each closing means when in the open state, in order to move the at least one closing means from the unlocking position to the locking position.
