Tamper-resistant latch assembly for slidable partitions with channelized keeper

摘要

An apparatus, latch assembly, keeper and installation method for use in slidable partition applications utilize a keeper formed of first and second angle members that are secured together in an overlapping relationship to define a U-shaped channel within which is disposed a tubular guard projection for protecting a latch from tampering by unauthorized personnel. Optional guard members may also inhibit access to the U-shaped channel when the slidable partition is engaged in a closed orientation.
