Locking Bolt or cross bolt mechanism?

Is the intent that the bolts extend into the door frame on each side? Is it just one door?

Suggestion-teeth on bolts might need to be symmetrical, I think. Never had the ones on my gunsafes uncovered to see what they actually look like.

those doors have 8 bolts- 2 on each side. There are even 2 on the hinge side.

It is supposed to open a door and you are looking at the inside. Non of it is supposed to be to scale as it was just something I was thinking and for some reason I could not find out what this might be called.

The reason I did this is I wanted to use the name in my story but for the life of me could not come up with it and was having a hard time finding any reference on the internet or perhaps there is to much info and I could not find the right info.
