I just had a barn door installed in my laundry room, but it slides open too easily, and my cats can push it open without any trouble. I'm looking for a way to keep it closed securely without needing a lock. Any suggestions?

You might want to consider adding some magnets to the door. They could help keep it closed without much hassle!
Using soft-close hardware could be beneficial! They provide a little resistance, which means the door won't just slide open easily. It may be pricier, but it should do the trick for keeping your cats out.
A simple hook latch could work like a charm. Something like [this one](https://www.amazon.com/skysen-Privacy-Latch-Sliding-Black/dp/B07Z1C1NGV) might be just what you need to keep that door shut securely!
