What does the pronunciation of latch mean?

The pronunciation of bolt is shuān, which means a sliding bolt inserted horizontally behind the door so that the door cannot be pushed open; Bolt the door. This word usually appears in ancient literature or poetry, but it is not commonly used in modern Chinese. The explanation is as follows:

Latches are usually made of wood or metal and have different shapes, but they are composed of two parts: one is fixed on the door panel and the other is fixed on the door frame. When the door is closed, the two parts of the latch will slide and plug together, thus locking the door.
