A little hard to install, works ok.

It’s a little hard to install, it would have been much easier if the plate was bigger than the magnet - the plate is almost the same size as the magnet and hence may not catch well if the installation is not accurate.The only issue I see is - there are 2 strips on the magnetic where the ferrous plate catches - they are not level on all magnets and hence will not catch with full strength. I have seen this issue with 2 out of 6 catches.

Pros
  • Customers love that I go the extra .ile to install quality products
Cons
  • The black color doesn't match other cabinet hardware.

Easy Install for my opinion

These were a breeze to install. Very sturdy. There were a few of the strike plates that wouldn’t set with the adhesive tape. Other than that no issues.

Pros
  • Well-made: Elliptical slotted screw holes also help to adjust the location to align the steel plate with the magnet piece. These furniture magnetic latches come with stainless steel mounting screws. You don't need to worry about the screw that will easily break during the installation process again.
Cons
  • They tend to rust quickly when exposed to moisture.

Great hardware.aside from the screws

These magnetic closers work really well except for the included screws. Even with pilot holes the screw heads stripped really easily, even when hand screwing with a screwdriver. I'd highly suggest buying alternate screws if you're going to buy these. Or maybe you'll have better luck than I did.

Pros
  • Powerful Magnetic Force: Each mount houses a single magnet with strong force that holds the plantation shutter, cabinet door, drawer, lid securely closed. Good for using on the door which the latch or hinge is useless. Also perfect for keeping your little pet from break into your cabinet for fun.
Cons
  • They're not strong enough to keep cabinet doors closed when there is a slight draft.

Keeps cats out! best in my review

My cats are clever. They are so clever, in fact, that they try breaking into my cabinets for fun. While I had grown accustomed to the random banging that sounded like A midnight remodeling session, their eventual success in their never ending quest to gain access to every inch of the house required me to finally take action.These magnets, while not enough to stop a toddler or a human in possession of very little patience, are sufficient to prevent a pair of very patient and very determined…

Pros
  • Keeps the cabinet doors closed.
Cons
  • They're easily misaligned, which causes the cabinet doors to sag or not close at all.

Easy Cabinet Fix - my new review

The hinges on my 22 year old kitchen cabinets were worn out and several cabinets wouldn’t close all the way. I found these magnets and decided to give them a try. The magnets are good and strong. They were easy to install. Now my cabinet doors close all the way! It was a very inexpensive solution. I am once again a happy homeowner.

Pros
  • The catches are easy to adjust, so you can fine-tune them to ensure a perfect fit for your cabinets
Cons
  • They're not suitable for use in areas with high foot traffic or activity.

Opened and missing adhesive strips

Reduced rating because package was opened and was missing some adhesive strips. Not returning as can still mount without. Made installation a bit trickier without them. Product itself works as expected

Pros
  • ‎12 Pack
Cons
  • They're difficult to clean and maintain.

Great but note your shelf to door depth

I found the design nice an compact. The magnets seems great. The only thing that hurt the success in my application is the distance from the door to the anchor point on the shelf. The place where the magnet had to be was too deep and they wouldn’t secure the cabinet door as they couldn’t make contact. I returned the item.

Pros
  • These catches are perfect for use in a kitchen, where cabinets are frequently opened and closed
Cons
  • They're not suitable for cabinets/drawers that are frequently exposed to direct sunlight.

Great magnets, but buy better screws

Save yourself some time and frustration and purchase some better screws from the hardware store before attempting to install these. See my picture of a ruined screw.After purchasing better screws, installation of these magnet latches was a breeze. Be sure to pre-drill your holes prior to screwing in the screws, otherwise you may snap them (even the good new ones).The hold of these magnets is great -- my 15-pound cats are both unable to open them -- yet they are really easy for humans to open…

Pros
  • ‎China
Cons
  • They're too difficult to remove once installed.

Would be great if the screws were better.

The magnets themselves are good and the adhesion really helps with lining up both pieces. My only complaint is at the least bit of resistance, the screws strip too easy. I predrilled the hold and tried many bits that 'should' have worked for the size heads these have and almost every screw I've installed has stripped. I've installed 6 so far and they are keeping the cat out of the cabinets, but I'm thinking about buying new screws for the remaining ones I have to install, which will add more to

Pros
  • Unlike traditional cabinet latches, these magnetic catches don't require any special skills or tools to install
Cons
  • They're easily broken or damaged during shipping.

Terrible screws best in my review

Quality of magnets is fine as well as strike plate but dear god you would have to try so hard to design a more terrible screw. Just go buy screws from the hardware store and throw the ones that come with this away. It will save you so much time even accounting for the drive to Home Depot. The screws heads are not the correct shape for ANY size Phillips bit. The drill bit will wobble in the tiny screw head and it will turn sideways every time you try to drill it in. Even better they are not…

Pros
  • The Jiayi 12 Pack Cabinet Magnetic Catch is a great value, providing 12 magnetic catches at an affordable price
Cons
  • They don't provide enough resistance to keep out strong winds.

Great Replacement Latch

The magnetic latches that came with our window shutters are cheap plastic - after 5 years, most have broken. I had been looking for a replacement that would fit into existing hol

Pros
  • They're also great for use in bathrooms, laundry rooms, and other areas of the home where you need to keep cabinets securely closed
Cons
  • They can scratch or damage the surface of cabinets/drawers.

Cat opening up your cabinets?

We were struggling with our cat opening up the kitchen cupboards to snoop around or to dig through the garbage can (located in cabinet under the counter). We have picked up some magnetic locks similar to this from the store and they just seemed 'weak". Not a strong pull to them at all. I decided (and crossed my fingers) that I would try these as a last attempt to keep the cat out. (Knowing if they didn't work-I could just return them). We received them quickly, installation was very quick…

Pros
  • Tricky to install
Cons
  • They're overpriced for what they offer.

Great, but didn't fit my cabinets.

These are well made, I wanted to replace the old latches that were 2 round rollers, unfortunately, these will not fit in the center where the old latches were. The only place they will fit is on the bottom shelf, while they would work there, I have some items that just barely slide in due to the height, so putting these on the bottom could get in the way. I'm not knocking the magnets, I believe they are excellent, and I will look at seeing how I can modify and make them fit on the side, out of…

Pros
  • The magnetic closure ensures that your cabinets will remain closed and free from dust and debris
Cons
  • They're not suitable for use in RVs or other vehicles that experience constant movement.

Great for the price So far everything ok.

Nice for the price, made good, good fit, looks nice. I would buy it again, I'm happy with it and it did meet my expectations.

Pros
  • Exactly has described. Great value
Cons
  • They tend to wear out quickly, leading to frequent replacements.

Screws not useable for my opinion

Nice solid magnets but the screws are pointless. They are cheap and break.Go ahead and buy new screws if you choose these. Magnets work well but the screw are not useable. It's nice that the magnet plate is adhesive and you get a perfect placement.

Pros
  • ‎Black
Cons
  • They're not secure enough for cabinets containing valuable items.

Great product but misleading item description

These did not have the double sided sticky tape on them as shown in picture's and videos. This was one of the reasons I chose this item. It still served it's purpose but description is misleading.

Pros
  • The magnetic catches are made from high-quality materials, ensuring that they'll last for years to come
Cons
  • They're not suitable for use in humid environments, such as basements or bathrooms.

Easy Install on my review.

These are very easy to install compared to others. The magnetic strength is very good. Overall very happy with the product, I even bought it again.

Pros
  • It is Sturdy. Screws are included.
Cons
  • It's an upgrade from the plastic but the product had been opened and repackaged without the screws.

Excellent latches, worthless screws

The latches themselves are top quality. Throw the bag of screws that comes with them in the trash. Go to your hardware store and buy as box of screws for 5 bucks. You might be tempted to think, if I pre-drill I can turn them in by hand with a small screwdriver. No you can't. These aren't even worth saving in your screw bins. They aren't useful for anything. Look after buying screws these went from 9 bucks to 13 bucks. A dollar as piece is still a decent value, but it still reflects poorly on…

Pros
  • The Jiayi 12 Pack Cabinet Magnetic Catch is suitable for use with both cabinet doors and drawers, making them a versatile option for any home
Cons
  • They're too weak to keep out curious pets.

Great magnetic strength

Very strong. Works to keep my pet hamster out of our kitchen cupboards that won't close properly. I wish both magnetic pieces, not just one, had a sticky strip to help install.

Pros
  • With their sleek and minimal design, these magnetic catches won't detract from the aesthetics of your cabinetry
Cons
  • They're not suitable for use with cabinets/drawers that require a tight seal.

Magnets Worked, Screws Sucked

Do you like easily installed projects? If so, you can buy this but get better screws. With predrilling, these screws will conveniently round off just enough that the magnet slides and doesn’t work right. First one installed easily and the rest kept rounding off. It came together with different screws.

Pros
  • Very good magnets
Cons
  • They're not strong enough to keep cabinet doors firmly closed.
