Bathroom door opens when traveling

About half the time when we arrive somewhere, we find that the shower door has come open and has been swinging around. It looks like the little latch thingy is rotating just enough to let the door come open. Has anyone experienced this and resolved it?

    @Photomom, pop off the little cap and there is a screw that can be tightened on the latch. If it’s still loose, the wooden toothpick trick of putting toothpicks in the hole with glue to tighten up the hole should work.

    Yes, ours loosened up too. At one point it turned to the 'locked' position all by itself!

    I think that was when I moved it higher, to be reachable from inside the shower (fear of being locked in the shower with no one around to let me out!)  :s

    Thanks. I had tried tugging on the latch thingy but it wouldn’t budge, didn’t realize there was a cap. The screw was pretty tight but I was able to give it about an eighth of a turn. Will see how it does on our next trip, to uCamp!
