A dispensing system for flowable liquids that includes a dispensing base (12) for holding a refill package of a flowable liquid. A door (16) is pivotally mounted to the dispensing base (12) by a first pivot means (24) so that the door (16) can have an open position and a closed position. The system has a push handle (18) pivotally mounted to the door (16) by a second pivot means (30) and a latching means (36) integral with the dispensing base (12) to pivotally secure the push handle (18) at the second pivot means (30) when the door (16) is closed so that the door (16) is held secure in the closed position and the push handle (18) may be used for dispensing. The dispensing system also includes a release means (40) for disengaging the push handle (18) from the latch means (36) so that the door (16) may be moved to its open position.
