Abstract
A locking bar (3) for use with a slideable panel (9), for example, sliding glass patio doors. The bar (3) includes first and second telescoping members (14 and 15) and a locking mechanism (16) at the point of attachment of the two members. The first member (14) is fixed against movement toward and away from the second member (15). The second member (15) is capable of telescoping movement relative to the first member (14). The locking bar further includes a bracket (19) for holding the second member (15) against movement relative to the slideable panel (9).
