bolt lock
Sliding metal latch
A bolt lock is a lock mechanism where a metal bar (the bolt) slides into a receptacle to secure a door.
The term distinguishes this common type from other locking mechanisms like combination locks or padlocks.
Deadbolts are the most familiar variety: Make sure you engage the bolt lock before bed.
