Abstract: A latching assembly for latching the swingable door associated with a cap as mounted over the bed of a pickup truck. The latching assembly is activated by a manually rotatable handle mounted centrally of the lower edge of the door. The latching assembly includes a pair of elongated rigid rods which project outwardly toward the opposite sides of the door and have latching bolts mounted on the free ends thereof, which bolts are disposed for latching engagement with the adjacent side jams. A removable fastening element, such as a screw, coacts between each bolt and the respective rod for permitting the bolt to function either as a deadbolt or as a spring-bolt. When the fastening element is present, the bolt is rigidly secured to the rod and functions as a deadbolt so that the handle must be manually rotated to move the bolts during both opening and closing of the door.
