A number of magnetically assisted latch mechanisms are presented, where the latching and unlatching action is done with reduced user effort, therefore promoting speed and efficiency without sacrificing the strength of the bond of the connected components. The latching mechanisms are designed to secure panels or other similar small and large mostly flat components. The latching method is done by a rotating component that takes all the separating load once rotated into the locked position. The rotatable lock, or hammer, is also locked itself into position to prevent accidental movement by the hammer.

A shelter includes: at least two side walls; a back wall; and a roof, wherein the side walls, the back wall, and the roof comprise a material that is weatherproof and insulated, and wherein the shelter is collapsible, detachable, and portable. The shelter can also include at least two side walls, wherein an upper end of the at least two side walls conjoin to form a roof. The shelter is lightweight, detachable, and portable. The shelter can be weatherproof and insulated for permanently or temporarily housing people and/or animals. The shelter can be transported to a desired location and assembled on-site with ease. When the use of the shelter is no longer desired, the shelter can be quickly disassembled and transported to another location.
