Abstract
A door assembly for an aircraft passenger suite includes a stationary wall, a rail mounted to the stationary wall, a carriage translatably mounted to the rail, a movable door, and a lock pin mounted to the door. The door assembly further includes a carriage subassembly mounted to the carriage including a receiver for receiving the lock pin, and a spring-loaded clamp for exerting a retaining force on the lock pin to retain the lock pin in the receiver. In embodiments, the lock pin has a configuration in which a force required to disengage the lock pin from the receiver is greater than a force required to engage the lock pin in the receiver. In use, in the event of mechanism failure, force can be applied to the door to decouple the lock pin from the receiver to move the door to facilitate egress.
