Abstract

A locking device comprising
- a displaceable bolt having at least one through hole;
- an internal control component comprising at least one internal control component pin;
- and
- an external control component comprising at least one external control component pin;
- wherein the internal control component and the external control component are positioned on opposite sides of the displaceable bolt, and
- in a normal state of the locking device, the at least one internal control component pin and the at least one external control component pin are both at least partially inserted into a respective at least one through hole of the displaceable bolt, such that the internal control component and the external control component engage the displaceable bolt in order to displace the displaceable bolt, and in an override state of the locking device, only the at least one external control component pin engages the displaceable bolt in order to displace the displaceable bolt it.
