We designed these recessed magnetic catches to fix the things that our clients did not like about traditional roller bolts: such as being a little aggressive to use, noisy, and with a visible strike plate.
Utilising high-strength neodymium magnets which we have carefully encased in solid brass housings, they ensure a door is easy to use, silent in operation, there are no visible strike plates, and being made from brass, they will perfectly match other Joseph Giles hardware.
If you're wondering which finish type to select, here's the key difference: living finishes gently patinate and change over time, ageing gracefully, whilst ageless finishes are either naturally unchanging, or boast a protective ceramic coating which mean the finish stays consistent.
Details
This magnetic catch has been designed specifically for full-size doors, including wardrobe doors. This can be fitted on the top, bottom or leading edge of the door.
Made from solid brass with fully-concealed high-strength neodymium magnets. Both parts attach using 6mm woodscrews which are fully concealed once assembled. The operation is completely silent as there are no moving parts, the solid brass housing ensures that they can be supplied in all our signature finishes.
While this is designed for full-size doors, to ensure easy operation the holding force is not as strong as traditional roller catch and so we do not recommend it is used in areas where there is airflow.
Includes:
South pole magnet with a two-part brass flanged housing
North pole magnet with a two-part brass flanged housing
Required fixing screws (not visible)
