Tonitrui Upgraded Strong Magnetic Door Catch, Replacement for Traditional Door Ball Catch, Quite & Easy to Install, Use for Top of Door, Closet Door, 2 Pack, Silver

The Tonitrui Silent Ball Catch is a great little piece of hardware. It feels solid, the magnet is surprisingly strong, and once fitted, the door closes with a smooth, satisfying click. No rattling, no slamming, just a clean, quiet hold. Installation was straightforward — as long as you’ve got basic DIY skills, it’s a quick job. Everything lined up nicely, and the adjustable design makes it easy to get the perfect fit. If you want a reliable, silent door catch that does exactly what it promises, this one is spot on.

Used to replace an old spring / roller type catch. Fitted pretty well in place of the old fitting. Easy to adjust but since it's magnetic and simply slides out it doesn't provide a strong closure 'force'. This was not a problem in my application. Recommended.

Great item strong and hard wearing

Worked ok but not brilliant. If your closes ok these will work but I can see if your a not hanging correctly the magnet won’t hold your door shut.

I swapped these with original handles and now just have a door knob and this catch on a cupboard. The door cons closes easily and silently and looks good. I am now going to swap handles on other cupboard doors to the same mechanism. Good value for money, easy to fit and the magnet holds the door shut.

Excellent item, such a simple and easy to fit, clever idea that works well

Works well, used to secure a door that wants to open. Has a magnetic cylinder that catches on steel plate. Quieter than the ball latch it replaced but not silent so not able to give 5 stars.

Huge improvement on the ball latch I replaced with this

This was a great replacement for the spring-loaded ball catches that wore out. It's not silent. Changing the old ball catches out was easy. The new catches fit perfectly.

Parfait. Très bon produit et facile à mettre en place. Il fonctionne parfaitement bien. Merci.

Funktioniert sehr gut.

These magnetic closet door latches are exact fit replacement for the ball and socket style that always end up damaging the door casing. Easy to adjust the magnet to hold the door firmly. Wish I found these earlier as I would have less casing to repair!

I do not know why the product listing shows installing by drilling into the side of the door and wall. It's clear that the designer went to great lengths to produce a product that could replace the ball catch mechanism that installs on the top of the door. I have several interior doors that had ball catch mechanisms and they were not good. Some were too tight. Some were too loose. One became so loose that it stopped catching at all. They were all so noisy and we stopped fully closing the doors and just rested them where the ball meets the edge of the top plate. This product fixed all that. It fit in to the original holes, including the screw holes...no drilling required. It took me a while to figure out that this item was the one I needed. There are several versions of magnetic ball catch hardware on Amazon with slightly different sizes. So measure your existing hardware first. If it matches, you are golden. The magnets are both strong and not strong. Before installation when I manually moved the magnets close, they snapped together with a solid force. But if I close a door with too much force it can escape the magnetic force and bounce back out. There was a little bit of adjustment to learn how to work with the magnetic catches and now it's working very well. There was one other issue. Without the ball physically catching into the depression, the door would hit the back wood before the magnet would catch it and center it. That was quite noisy. To resolve that, I put a bit of weather stripping on the door frame to absorb the impact. All in all, I'm quite happy with this upgrade.
