Abstract: A non-residential door latch comprised of a serpentine rigid bar. Mounting plates for locating the bar through a typical gate such that a downwardly curving portion of the bar is exposed on one side of the gate to form a handle while an inwardly curving portion of the bar is exposed on the opposite side of the gate to form a striker. Horizontal movement of the handle creates a corresponding vertical movement of the striker. An "L" shaped support bracket incorporates an elongated slot which fits over the end of the striker and limits the vertical movement of the striker. A latch bracket mounted to the gate post incorporates an elongate slot, open at one end into which the striker falls and is captured.
