ABSTRACT:
A combination of a screen door latching apparatus, commonly having a small indoor push handle and a substantially thin guard plate that becomes retained between the handle housing and a frame of the screen door. The guard plate is elongated and protects the screening material from accidental hand abuse. The combination also enhances security by means of the guard plate by shielding the door latch locking trigger from outside view and access. The prominent guard plate helps occupants to quickly identify the door latch location, assisting a hurried egress. The guard plate helps to guide ones fingers toward the small locking trigger of the door latch which is particularly important during panic situations.
