ABSTRACT:
A door latch assembly having open and closed positions comprises a door latch and a locking clip removably mounted upon it. The door latch has a bracket mounted on a door and an elongated bolt with a shank slidably and rotatably seated in the bracket. The bolt includes a shank with a handle at one end and a locking arm at the other end extending substantially perpendicularly to the shank. The bolt is rotatable at least 90.degree. about its axis to move the arm between a first position to a second position, and is also reciprocable axially in the bracket to move the arm portion from a first position spaced from the bracket to a second position adjacent to the bracket. The locking clip is removably mounted upon the shank of the bolt between the locking arm of the bolt and the bracket in the first axial position of the bolt, so that, when the clip is mounted upon the bolt, the clip restricts the axial movement of the bolt from the first position by its abutment against the bracket.
