Abstract

See full text

A latch mechanism for a bathroom stall door includes: a sliding latch having an engagement portion and a user contact portion, the user contact portion having a latch movement section and a door movement section; a door bracket configured to attach to a door and that restrains movement of the sliding latch relative to the door, the movement being restrained to a sliding movement; and a latch catcher configured to attach to a frame adjacent to the door, the latch catcher receiving the engagement portion of the sliding latch when the sliding latch is in a latched position. The latch movement section is configured to translate movement of the user to movement of the sliding latch between an unlatched position and the latched position, and the door movement section is configured to translate movement of the user to movement of the door between an open position and a closed position.
