Abstract
A door assembly in which an elastomeric roller, carried by a door, rolls against a latch member to pivot the latch member in one direction until the roller reaches a detent and then pivots in an opposite direction to lock the roller in the detent and the door in a closed position. The door is opened by pivoting the latch member in the first direction to release the roller from the detent.
