cabinet latch
Cupboard closure mechanism
A cabinet latch is a small fastening device that holds a cabinet door closed.
Unlike hinges, which allow movement, latches secure the door in place until deliberately released—by pushing, pulling, or pressing a button.
Common types include magnetic catches, roller catches, and child-safety latches: The cabinet latch broke, so the door keeps swinging open.
