What it does

A magnetic catch holds a cabinet door closed and lets it open with a straight pull — no mechanism, nothing to wear out, nothing to adjust once it is set. The catch body screws to the carcass and the steel strike plate screws to the door.

It is the simplest and cheapest way to stop a door drifting open, and on a light door it will outlast almost anything else in the cabinet.

Single or double

A single magnet suits light doors — bathroom cabinets, small cupboards, display units. For a heavy or tall door, or one that gets pulled hard, a double catch gives roughly twice the holding force and is less likely to let go when the door is knocked.

Fitting notes

• Fit the catch first, then the plate. Close the door onto the magnet to mark the plate position exactly.
• Most catches have slotted screw holes so you can shift them a millimetre or two after a test close.
• Mount as far from the hinges as possible for the best holding effect.
• A tiny gap between magnet and plate loses a surprising amount of force — set them to touch.
