outer door handles for locking, and pressure-sen-
sitive surfaces on the inside of the handles for
unlocking. Pressure-sensitive indentation for locking

It is important that only one pressure-sensi-
tive surface is activated at a time. If the han-
dle is grasped at the same time as the lock

plate that can only be used for unlocking.
