Abstract
A surface-mounting multipoint lock includes an elongated housing having a lower end, an upper end, and a mounting member. The lock is configured for attachment along and external to a non-hinged vertical edge of a swinging panel along substantially a full extent of the non-hinged vertical edge. A plurality of spaced latch bolts in the housing include an upper latch bolt proximate to the upper end of the housing, and a lower latch bolt proximate to the lower end of the housing. The latch bolts are substantially laterally movable between a locked position and an unlocked position.
