Frequently Asked Questions | FAQs
Which cupboard door catch is best for a handleless door?
Bumper push latches (also known as touch latches) are the ideal choice for handleless cabinet designs. They allow you to open the cupboard with a simple press against the door, providing a sleek, minimalist aesthetic without compromising on a secure close.
When should I use a double ball catch over a magnetic catch?
Double ball catches offer a stronger, mechanical friction grip, making them highly effective for heavier doors or locations where a standard magnetic catch might not provide enough holding force. They also feature an adjustable tension mechanism to dial in the exact resistance needed for your specific cabinetry.
How do childproof cabinet catches work?
Childproof cupboard door catches feature a spring-loaded mechanism that mounts to the inside of the cupboard door and the frame. They allow the door to open just enough to press a hidden release lever, keeping hazardous materials or tools securely locked away from children while maintaining easy access for adults.
