Release of Metal Latch

The audio begins with the distinct metallic sound of a latch being manipulated. You can hear the slight squeak of metal against metal, indicating the release of a lock. This could be from an old chest or a heavy door, its latch finally giving way. The sound is rich and echoes slightly, as if bouncing off the surroundings. As the latch is released, there's the faintest hint of a creak, almost like a sigh of relief. Following the release, there's a resonating sound that signifies the opening of the chest or door. You can almost feel the air shift as it swings open. The sound fades into a soft close, the latch clicking back into place in a satisfying manner. The audio ends with a finality, leaving behind the image of a secure metal lock on a recently opened and then closed chest or door.
