A fluid substance may be dispensed from a container with a fluid dispenser. The fluid dispenser has a housing connected to the container and a passage for providing fluid communication between a nozzle attached to the housing and the container. A pump positioned within the housing draws the fluid substance from the container interior and pushes the substance through an orifice in the nozzle. Attached to the housing is a pivotable door which is moveable between an open position wherein the fluid substance may be dispensed and a closed position wherein the door inhibits the fluid substance from being dispensed. The door has an aperture located remote from the nozzle orifice. Extending from the housing is a tongue which is configured to engage the aperture in the door when the door is in the closed position to prevent the door from being opened and to prevent the fluid substance from being dispensed from the nozzle orifice without first disengaging the tongue from the aperture and moving the door to the open position.

A nozzle of a trigger sprayer that discharges liquid pumped through the nozzle by the trigger sprayer, the nozzle comprising: a fluid discharge passage extending through the nozzle, the fluid discharge passage having an inlet opening at a rearward end and a front wall at an opposite forward end of the fluid discharge passage; a discharge orifice passing through the front well; a door connected to the nozzle above the front wall for movement of the door between open and closed positions relative to the nozzle, the door being displaced from the discharge orifice when in the open position and the door covering over the discharge orifice when in the closed position, the door having a projecting tab on an edge of the door opposite its connection to the nozzle and the door having an aperture through the door positioned adjacent the projecting tab; a tongue projecting forwardly from the nozzle below the front wall, the tongue extending to a distal end of the tongue positioned forwardly of the front wall, and the tongue holding its distal end stationary relative to the nozzle in a position where the tongue distal end will pass through the door aperture as the door is moved from its open position to its closed position and the tongue has a detent formed thereon adjacent its distal end, the detent is sized to pass through the aperture when the door is moved from its closed position to its open position.
