Light pull force magnetic catches from Amerock Corporation provide a controlled holding force that keeps doors closed while still opening easily, which helps on standard duty cabinet and furniture applications where a light touch is preferred. The aluminum casing around the magnet creates a compact housing, so the catch sits neatly where mounting space is limited yet a positive close is required. Magnets rotate within casing to maintain maximum contact to strike, which means the face of the magnet automatically aligns to the strike plate and maintains consistent contact over repeated cycles. That rotating action supports reliable holding performance even when door alignment is not perfect every time. The catch and strike plate combination works as a simple mechanical closure, which gives installers a straightforward way to add or restore door retention without complex hardware.
The magnet housing dimension of 5/8 H x 1 D x 2 L gives installers fixed reference points, so layout on rails, stiles, or case panels can be planned accurately to align with existing clearances. With the strike plate at 3/4 H x 1-1/8 L, there is a defined target area for the rotating magnet to contact, which simplifies positioning on the door edge or stile. Because the magnets rotate within casing to maintain maximum contact to strike, slight variances in mounting height or angle are better tolerated, which can reduce rework when cabinets are slightly out of square. The aluminum casing forms a single, solid magnet housing, giving a clean rectangular shape to register against edges or jigs during installation.
This magnetic catch from Amerock Corporation is categorized as a standard duty catch, which aligns it with everyday cabinet and light door applications rather than heavy structural doors. The light pull force description indicates a modest holding strength, so doors stay shut under normal operation yet open without excessive effort, important for cabinets accessed many times during a shift or day. The aluminum casing around the magnet creates a compact, durable-feeling body, so it suits mounting on cabinet frames, interior partitions, and similar flat surfaces where a small footprint is preferred. The defined magnet housing size of 5/8 H x 1 D x 2 L means it can sit along narrow face frames or inside cases without projecting far into storage space. The 3/4 H x 1-1/8 L strike plate dimension gives enough face area on the mating door or panel, which helps the rotating magnet find consistent contact when doors are closed from slightly different angles.
The magnets rotate within casing to maintain maximum contact to strike, so as the door swings shut the magnet face can pivot into full alignment with the strike plate, reducing point contact that can weaken hold or create rattle. That full-face contact helps the light pull force perform efficiently, because more surface area is engaged between magnet and strike plate on every close. The 1 inch depth of the magnet housing gives a stable base for the rotating magnet mechanism, which supports smooth operation over repeated openings and closings. At 2 inches long, the housing offers a generous mounting footprint, so installers have space to position fasteners for a rigid attachment on wood or similar substrates. The 3/4 inch height of the strike plate paired with 5/8 inch housing height keeps both parts in a similar vertical band, which simplifies aligning components during layout. Together, these dimensional relationships and the rotating magnet design create a predictable closing action that supports repeatable results across multiple cabinets in the same project.
The Amerock CM9783AL is a magnetic catch with a magnet and strike plate, used as a standard duty catch to hold doors or panels closed using light pull magnetic force.
The CM9783AL magnets rotate within the casing to maintain maximum contact to the strike plate, creating a broad contact area that supports consistent holding strength during repeated openings and closings.
The CM9783AL magnet housing measures 5/8 inch high by 1 inch deep by 2 inches long, giving a compact body that fits in tight spaces while still offering a stable mounting footprint.
The CM9783AL strike plate measures 3/4 inch high by 1-1/8 inch long, providing a generous target area so the rotating magnet can seat fully for reliable closure.
The CM9783AL is described as a standard duty magnetic catch with light pull force, aligning it with typical cabinet and furniture doors where moderate holding and easy opening are required.
The CM9783AL uses an aluminum casing as the magnet housing, giving a defined rectangular shape that mounts neatly on cabinet components and supports the rotating magnet inside.
The Amerock CM9783AL light pull force magnetic catch combines an aluminum casing magnet housing of 5/8 H x 1 D x 2 L with a 3/4 H x 1-1/8 L strike plate, giving installers known dimensions for planning cabinet or furniture layouts. The standard duty rating and light pull force description align with everyday door applications where frequent access and smooth opening matter. Magnets that rotate within casing to maintain maximum contact to strike support consistent closing performance across multiple doors on a job. For projects calling for a compact, standard duty magnetic catch with defined sizing and controlled holding force, this Amerock magnetic catch CM9783AL is a practical choice.
