This guide is for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners looking to secure cabinet doors and drawers. The key benefit is reliable closure, preventing doors from swinging open. A potential caveat is the need for precise alignment during installation. These are medium-sized magnetic catches designed to provide a secure hold, featuring a 6kg pull strength and coming with necessary mounting plates and screws. The pack includes 12 units, offering a cost-effective solution for multiple cabinets.

This pack contains 12 magnetic cupboard door catches.
Each magnetic catch has a pull strength of 6 kilograms.
The catch comes with a single metal plate designed to work with the magnet.
These are designed for wooden cabinet doors. The plate is metal, so they should hold onto a metal surface if positioned correctly, but they are intended for use with the provided plate on wood.
Each magnetic catch measures approximately 42 mm in length and 20 mm in width.
Yes, each catch comes complete with a single plate and screws for installation.
The catches are white.
Check the alignment between the magnetic catch and the metal plate. Ensure they are making firm contact when the door is closed. Verify that the screws holding both components are tightened securely.
Confirm the correct plate (metal for magnet, not another magnet) is used. Ensure there are no obstructions between the catch and the plate. Re-check alignment for maximum magnetic pull.
If screwing into particle board or soft wood, the holes may be stripped. Try using slightly larger screws or wood filler to create a more secure anchor point.
This is less common with magnetic catches. If the door is very stiff to open, ensure the magnetic force is appropriate for the door's weight. For lighter doors, consider if the pull strength is excessive. Ensure the door mechanism itself is not binding.
Setup:
Compatibility: These catches are compatible with most standard wooden cabinet doors and drawers. They are designed for interior use on furniture.
Care: Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish or the magnetic components.
