Stick it through the plastic bag and try it before you buy a bunch and leave the store. You might have to cut the screws; buy some nuts that you put on before you cut them. When you remove them it fixes the thread. | |

The door can be pulled open like before and closed without activating it to pop open but its not hard just to press in to reset the position if it pops out. I haven't used these for years because they are a bit expensive but cheaper than new pull hardware. The latches were called push to open, just looked them up 1$ to 12$ ea | |
