Ives 326A92 Heavy Duty Magnetic Door Catch Aluminum

Product Description

The IVES 326A92 is a heavy duty magnetic catch designed for door and cabinet applications in commercial and residential construction. It uses a magnetic mechanism to hold doors in the open or closed position without mechanical latching hardware. The aluminum finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for interior installations. At 3 inches long, 2 inches wide, and 0.75 inches in height, the 326A92 is compact enough for standard door and frame conditions. Carpenters, door hardware installers, and general contractors typically install this component during new construction or retrofit projects.

The 326A92 is suited for interior door applications where a low-profile, non-mechanical hold-open or hold-closed solution is needed. Typical installations include office doors, cabinet doors, and passage doors in light commercial and residential buildings. The aluminum finish coordinates with other aluminum-finish door hardware and accessories. Each unit is sold individually, with case quantities of 10 available for larger projects or stocking purposes.

No special tools or trade licensing are required for standard interior door hardware installation.
