A lighting fixture's housing () is hinged at one end or portion and includes a door () which latches to the housing () at an opposite end. A latch (), which contains a mating hook (), is connected to the housing (). A latching surface () on the housing () interlocks with the mating hook () when the door () is closed. The latch member includes a main () and secondary flexing portion () with the mating hook () therebetween, as well as door push portion () and handle portion (). The door () is opened by applying a force to the handle portion () which deforms the main () and secondary flexing portion () to disengage the mating hook () from the latching surface (), as well as pushing or applying a force to the door to help disengage it from the housing ().
