I realize that this latch won't work with all enclosures, but I designed it to meet my needs.. I needed something to close the door on my 3D printer enclosure and it works well.
I came up with a 2 piece snap together design that has enough friction to not close by itself, but pivots with little effort.
It only allows for 90-deg rotation. It can be reversed depending on which direction is needed.
I found that it's best to delete the support under the retainer on the base piece (see pic
