Abstract
A portable door latch is used on commode stall doors in bathrooms in which the stall door latches have been broken or undermaintained. The easy-to-use device includes a pair of disk-like members which are affixed on a nylon line for sandwiching the door against the jamb from inside the stall during use. When the user desires to exit the stall, the device is easily loosened and removed for storage in the pocket of the user.
