Abstract: A locking assembly for a glider rocker having a gliding chair seat mounted on a stationary base. A latch bar is adapted to extend horizontally and transversely with respect to a gliding direction of the chair seat. A mounting assembly is provided for attaching the latch bar to the chair seat, the mounting assembly being operable for selectively lifting and lowering the latch bar with respect to the chair seat. A bracket affixable to the base, has an upper end provided with a downwardly extending catch slot into which the latch bar slideably fits when the latch bar is aligned therewith and lowered by operation of the mounting assembly.
