3 Minutes to understand what is Magnetic Door Hardware.
Are you puzzled by magnetic door hardware? Is it just a gimmick—or a genuine innovation for interior doors? Spend three minutes to get up to speed on the magnetic door hardware family!
1. What Is Magnetic Door Hardware?
Magnetic door hardware is a premium subset of residential door‐fitting systems. It typically includes:
-
Magnetic door locks
-
Magnetic door latches
-
Magnetic door catches
-
Magnetic door stops
Magnetic Door lock includes 2 types, European magnetic mortise lock and American Magnetic Tubular Latch Privacy/Passage.
In commercial settings, only the door stops are used; other magnetic components are exclusively for luxury residential projects.
2. How Does It Work?
Magic! The key of the magic is - a magnet!
The secret is simple—a magnet. Every piece of magnetic door hardware relies on a concealed magnet that automatically attracts metal. Once you install the component correctly, it snaps into place without any adjustment or fine-tuning required.
3. Why Choose Magnetic Door Hardware?
Seamless, Minimalist Design
As interior design trends toward 2025–2030, minimalism reigns. Magnetic hardware sits flush or hidden within the door, creating clean lines and uncluttered interiors.
Simplified Installation
Unlike bulky mechanical strikes, magnetic locks and latches use an invisible strike plate—no “T” or “D” strikes and no extra drilling into the jamb. That means a faster, neater installation.
Quieter, Smoother Operation
Built with soft-yet-durable materials, modern magnetic hardware reduces noise compared to traditional metal-on-metal latches. It isn’t completely silent, but the sound is significantly muted—ideal for spaces where you want to minimize clatter.
4. Zuperior Hardware’s Magnetic Offerings
Magnetic Door Latch (Privacy & Passage)
Our American-standard magnetic tubular latches fit standard door bores. Currently available in a 2 3/8″ backset, with a 2 3/4″ option coming soon.
Additional benefits over conventional latches:
1. No snagged clothing:
Ordinary strike plates can catch and tear fabric. Our flush magnet eliminates that risk.
2. No extended strikes needed:
It's a magnet magic, no mechanical movement. So it does not need a D or T strike space for the physical function. Saving from buying extended strikes for non-standard door jambs.
3. Scratch-free faceplates:
Since the latch only engages when closed, there’s no rubbing or scratching against the strike.
