Can someone tell me what this is called? Not even sure it's considered a screw, but whatever it is, I would love to know the name of it. Several of these things hold the door to my waterheater in place.

It's a turn latch with a flat head screw.

Thank you very much! Should have come here to begin with :-) I spent over an hour searching the internet trying to identify this thing by name, with no luck. Then I post here and 20 minutes later I have an answer!

We aren't always that fast, but we try.
Thanks, Greg
