Snap-In Magnetic Catch 14/16 Gauge is an EPCO catch designed for heavier metal cabinet doors, so it secures doors that need more holding force in metal casework. The aluminum case is self-aligning to the strike plate, which helps the catch and strike pull into position as the door closes, reducing fussy alignment during installation and use. This catch snaps into a 3/4 x 1-3/16 opening in 14/16 gauge or 18/20 gauge metal, so it works within standard punched or cut openings in metal doors and frames. The lifetime magnet provides long-term magnetic holding strength, supporting repeated door cycles in busy environments. As part of the EPCO line in the Locks and Latches Catches category, this catch fits into cabinet builds where a magnetic solution is preferred over a mechanical latch.
This EPCO snap-in magnetic catch is built to snap into a 3/4 x 1-3/16 opening in 14/16 gauge or 18/20 gauge metal, so once the opening is prepared in the metal door or frame, the catch seats in place without separate brackets. The aluminum case is self-aligning to the strike plate, so as the door closes, the magnet helps pull the strike into position, supporting a reliable close even when the opening has slight positional variation. Designed for heavier metal cabinet doors, this catch is well suited where a metal door needs a defined closed position without a mechanical latch. With a lifetime magnet, the catch maintains its holding function over the life of the cabinet, supporting repeatable performance in daily use.
This EPCO snap-in magnetic catch is specified for heavier metal cabinet doors, so it suits metal cabinets where door weight or size benefits from a firm magnetic close. The catch is designed to snap into a 3/4 x 1-3/16 opening, so any metal door or frame panel built from 14/16 gauge or 18/20 gauge metal with that opening can accept the catch directly. Because it falls under the Locks and Latches Catches category, it fits projects where a magnetic catch is preferred as the primary door-retention method instead of a spring latch. The aluminum case surrounds the magnet, so it ties the device structurally to the sheet metal, supporting use in metal cabinetry across shop, storage, or service environments built around metal casework.
The aluminum case on this catch is self-aligning to the strike plate, so when the door closes, the magnet assists both alignment and closure, helping compensate for small shifts in hinges or metal flex over time. This design reduces the sensitivity of the close to slight door sag or frame variation, which can limit rework on cabinets after installation. The lifetime magnet maintains its magnetic pull, so the closing action and holding force stay consistent even after many door cycles in daily use. Because the catch is designed for heavier metal cabinet doors, that sustained magnetic strength supports doors that see frequent opening in higher-use metal cabinetry. Identified by EPCO part number 558-P, the catch can be repeated across multiple cabinets for uniform door behavior and predictable installation steps wherever the same opening size and metal gauges are used.
The Snap-In Magnetic Catch 14/16 Gauge is designed for heavier metal cabinet doors, so it suits metal casework where door weight or size benefits from a strong magnetic hold.
The EPCO 558-P snap-in magnetic catch fits a 3/4 x 1-3/16 opening, so it matches that specific cutout or punched opening in metal cabinet doors or frames.
This snap-in magnetic catch is specified for 14/16 gauge or 18/20 gauge metal, so it works with commonly used sheet-metal thicknesses in metal cabinet construction.
The aluminum case is self-aligning to the strike plate, so the magnet helps pull the parts together as the door closes, easing alignment demands on hinges and casework.
The lifetime magnet in this EPCO catch maintains magnetic holding strength over time, so the door continues to close firmly after many opening and closing cycles.
The snap-in design for a 3/4 x 1-3/16 opening allows the catch to seat directly in 14/16 or 18/20 gauge metal, so installation fits cleanly into metal cabinet fabrication steps.
The Snap-In Magnetic Catch 14/16 Gauge from EPCO combines a snap-in body, aluminum self-aligning case, and lifetime magnet, so it fits projects using 14/16 gauge or 18/20 gauge metal doors with a 3/4 x 1-3/16 opening. For heavier metal cabinet doors where a magnetic solution from the Locks and Latches Catches category is preferred, this 558-P part provides a defined close and repeatable holding force. Choose this catch when metal cabinet construction and door weight match its specified opening size, metal gauges, and magnetic catch style.
