Buying Guide

Latch type and operation

Choose between push-to-open or magnetic latches for knob-free operation, or mechanical catches for a positive hold; operation affects installation and daily use

Material and finish

Select metal or brass finishes to match cabinet hardware and resist wear; brass sets offer a traditional look while plated metal often provides higher corrosion resistance

Pack size and value

Consider pack quantity (4–16 pieces in common sets) relative to the number of doors/drawers to avoid repeat purchases and to get better per-piece value

Mounting and compatibility

Verify mounting screw types and hole spacing against your cabinet door thickness and frame to ensure proper fit and avoid extra drilling

Magnetic strength and adjustment

Look for adjustable strike plates or magnet tension so you can tune engagement for soft-close or firmer catches depending on door weight
