ABSTRACT:
A latch including a handle operative only in response to a grasp-like pull. In a preferred embodiment, the handle comprises a rod bent into a general C-shape to provide a pair of ends. The handle is pivotally mounted. Operation of the handle pivots a first handle end in an arc to move a latch bolt approximately parallel to the chord of said first handle arc to move the latch bolt from an engagement to a disengagement position. The second end of the handle normally closely abuts the latch casing to preclude operation of the handle by a push.
