Product Information

Full details

The DoorMag Bifold Door Magnet is an ideal solution for homeowners and professionals looking to secure patio, bi-fold, or French doors without the need for traditional, floor-mounted hardware. By utilizing a high-strength magnetic hold, this device keeps doors firmly in place during windy conditions or high traffic, offering a sleek alternative to mechanical catches. While it provides excellent stability, it is important to ensure your door surface is compatible with the mounting requirements to avoid potential alignment issues.

FAQs

Can this be used on exterior doors?

Does it require professional installation?

No, the unit is designed for DIY installation using the provided self-tapping screws.

What are the dimensions of the unit?

The DoorMag is 29mm in diameter and 61mm in height.

Will this work on all door types?

It is specifically designed for bi-fold, patio, and French doors where a parallel surface is available for mounting.

Is the magnetic force adjustable?

No, the magnetic force is fixed; however, you can optimize the hold by ensuring perfect alignment between the two contact points.

Does the package include mounting hardware?

Yes, the product comes with the necessary self-tapping screws for installation.

Troubleshooting

The magnet is not holding the door securely.

Check the alignment of the two components to ensure they make flush contact when the door is closed. Ensure no debris is blocking the face of the magnet.

The unit feels loose after installation.

Verify that the self-tapping screws are fully tightened and that the base plate is flush against the mounting surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates the need for floor-mounted stoppers
  • High-strength magnetic hold for wind resistance
  • Clean and modern visual appearance
  • Simple installation process

Cons

  • Requires precise alignment for optimal magnetic catch
  • Not suitable for doors with excessive gaps between the leaf and mounting surface
  • Requires drilling into door frames or walls for mounting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward due to the screw-fixed design. Simply unscrew the back plate from the unit, align it with your desired mounting position on the wall or the parallel door leaf, and secure it using the provided self-tapping screws. Before drilling, test the magnetic engagement to ensure the unit aligns perfectly when the door is in the desired open position. To maintain performance, wipe the surface of the magnet with a dry cloth periodically to remove dust or debris, which can reduce the strength of the magnetic bond over time. Ensure the unit is kept dry if used in exposed exterior locations to maintain the integrity of the finish.
