oven lock
Cooking appliance latch
An oven lock is a safety mechanism that secures an oven door, preventing it from being opened.
During self-cleaning cycles, the lock engages automatically because temperatures inside reach dangerous levels.
Some ovens have manual locks to keep children from opening the door: Make sure the oven lock is on when the kids are in the kitchen.
