Latch
A latch — the catch that opens or holds a door — often touches appeals for aid met unkindly, or a broken catch hinting at discord. The dream may ask where you're closing yourself off from someone's urgent request, whether a fastening between you and a dear friend has come loose, and what you're shutting out that deserves letting in.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for latch, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of a latch, denotes you will meet urgent appeals for aid, to which you will respond unkindly. To see a broken latch, foretells disagreements with your dearest friend. Sickness is also foretold in this dream.
