In one embodiment of the invention a locking device is provided, the device comprising a first movable object; a second movable object; and a housing, wherein the housing defines at least (i) a cavity, (ii) a first bore for receiving the first movable object, and (iii) a second bore which opens into the cavity and intersects with the first bore, and in which the second movable object is at least partially disposed; whereby upon movement of the first movable object into a locking position within the first bore, the second movable object is moved to a position in proximity or in contact with an abutting surface within the cavity. Related combinations of such devices, as well as releasable hinges and closures employing such configurations and related methods are also described.
