Seeing a door latch signifies a troublesome servant who is distressed by setting out on a journey. A bolt placed behind a door signifies a child, a disabled wife, or a slow-moving animal. Sometimes this dream signifies safety from fear, protection from an enemy, and buried wealth. If a poor person sees that he has a bolt with him, it signifies wealth and benefit.
Seeing the door of one's own house locked with a bolt signifies that the dreamer is unable to safeguard worldly affairs.
