Design for a Lock for the Door to My Kids' Fort
My kids, my father, and I together built a pretty cool fort. It is not complete yet, but it is enclosed and has a door. The problem, however, is that the door does not lock (or even latch!)
The fort is elevated 4' off the ground. Structural designs for the fort are managed in (TODO: Create Project)
In previous forts (see this blog post) I've used a screen-door type setup wtih a spring to pull the door closed. However, for this design I want to provide a little bit more security and weather-resistance.
Me and my kids are the primary stakeholders. I am concerned about the safety of my kids and security of our property. My kids are concerned about having fun with the fort.
This project is a good excuse to learn some new technologies and to play around with model-based systems engineering tools on a soup-to-nuts project.
