Push type magnet catches

[phil2010]

I will making some wardrobe and alcove units ,what type of push magnet catches do you recommend

Surely the whole point of a magnetic catch is that you don't push it. It just works by proximity.
Maybe you can expand on what you mean or give an example link or picture?

You can get a push type magnet catch, I use sdslondon for all my catches etc.

I have just finished some cabinets with touch/push latches, the non magnetic type and they work really well.

I use these ones, pricey, but you get what you pay for. If you get the bracket for them too, there is adjustment on them. there is a small mag on them and you get a little metal plate to stick on the door.

I've just done a couple of mirror fronted vanity cabinets with the same push to open catches as mtr1 and they work very well provided you are having layon doors. Not sure how they would be with larger wardrobe doors as you have to use unsprung hinges so any slight twist in the door swill not be shut by the hinges.

Apologies, I just looked at the link and saw no mention of 'magnetic'
