HOOK AND EYE # 3

Door hook and eye, also known as a cabin hook or door stay, is a simple mechanical fastener for keeping doors, gates, or windows open or closed. It consists of a hook attached to one surface and an eye-shaped loop or catch on the other, which the hook slides into to secure the opening. The primary purpose of a hook and eye is to provide a hands-free way to hold a door in a specific position, such as keeping it open against wind or securing it closed.
