What is this round thing on the pantry door in The Shining
When Wendy locks Jack in the pantry, there is a round object on the door.
I thought that it was something to help out if someone gets trapped in the pantry, but based on the scene, it seems like that's not the case.
What is this object?

@Joachim I'd have to watch again to see the outside, but I am pretty sure that you could just push the door open.

This photo is almost as good a canonical Jack Nicholson photo as "Heeeere's Jack!" Wonder why we don't see it too often?

It's a commercial walk-in refrigerator door handle, known as a 'push-strike'
Basically it just pushes through the door onto the regular latch on the outside so you can get out... unless in this case someone has locked it from the outside. You can bump it with your butt if your hands are full.

I seem to do well on "kitchen equipment in the Shining" questions, ref movies.stackexchange.com/questions/43645/… ;-) It's scarily bizarre, really. Except for the fact I used to live above a hotel kitchen, I wouldn't have a clue either ;-)
