[0002] In daily life, door latches are usually installed on doors or cabinets to make it easier to close them tightly. However, existing door latches are either glued on or have exposed mounting holes. Glue-glued latches are easily removed or damaged by the glue coming off, or the screws in the exposed mounting holes can be unscrewed, rendering the latch useless. Furthermore, the glue is difficult to control, easily overflowing, and the exposed mounting holes make the door unsightly. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a door latch that effectively locks and provides safety protection while preventing it from being easily disassembled or damaged. In addition, the door latch is also aesthetically pleasing, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
