Systems, devices, and methods for an easy to a dual latch system that work simultaneously for locking a blade iron part of a ceiling fan blade to a motor-rotor housing. A first mechanism includes a protruding catch end with a vertical slot through the blade iron. The protruding end of the blade arm is pushed against a spring biased ledge member in the motor-rotor fan housing and when the blade iron is moved downward the protruding catch end hooks about an upwardly raised member inside the motor housing, and when the spring pushes the ledge member outward locks the blade in place with the first mechanism. The second mechanism includes a spring biased latch member with angled face under the first mechanism. A fixed protrusion under the blade iron in the direction of the motor-rotor housing forms a gap between the blade iron and the tab. When the protruding catch end of the blade iron is moved downward, the latch member is pushed outward by the spring and the angled front face of the spring-based latch member is directed into the gap, actuating the second latch mechanism.
