9765 magnetic catch white from Amerock Corporation is a magnetic catch assembly designed to hold cabinet doors closed using a compact magnet housing and multiple strike options, which helps installers match different door constructions on a single job. The magnet housing is specified at 1-15/16 inches high by 3/4 inch deep by 11/16 inch long, so it occupies minimal space on the frame while still providing a defined contact point for the strike. That compact size helps when working inside tight face frames or narrow cabinet rails where clearance is limited. The product is listed under locks and latches in the catches class, which identifies it as a holding device rather than a hinge or lockset. The white finish referenced in the description supports use on light-colored cabinets where a neutral catch appearance is preferred.
The 1-15/16 inch high magnet housing provides enough vertical surface to align with the chosen strike plate while still fitting along cabinet frames, which supports consistent contact when the door closes. The 3/4 inch depth of the housing defines how far the magnet projects from the mounting surface, so installers can position the strike plates to meet that depth and achieve dependable pull without overtravel. The flat, L-shaped, and Z-shaped strike plates share a 1-1/8 inch height, giving a consistent target area against the magnet housing that simplifies layout across mixed door conditions on the same project. The different length and depth dimensions on each strike plate allow the same magnetic catch body to serve inset, overlay, and full inset door layouts, reducing the number of different catch styles needed on the job.
The web description states that this magnetic catch uses three strike types: flat for inset doors, L-shaped for overlay doors, and Z-shaped for full inset doors, so a single part number can address several common cabinet door conditions. The flat strike plate at 1-1/8 inches high by 3/4 inch long gives a low-profile contact surface that suits doors where the door edge sits flush with the cabinet opening, helping keep the hardware out of sight. The L-shaped strike plate at 1-1/8 inches high by 7/8 inch deep by 3/4 inch long adds a formed return that extends over the door edge, which provides a positive contact point when the door overlays the face frame. The Z-shaped strike plate at 1-1/8 inches high by 1/2 inch deep by 1-1/2 inches long provides a stepped geometry that reaches further across the door edge for full inset doors, which helps account for reveals and offsets. By having these defined strike geometries tied to specific door types, installers can align the magnet housing once and then select the strike that matches the door style, which supports repeatable closure feel across a project.
The magnet housing size of 1-15/16 inches high by 3/4 inch deep by 11/16 inch long concentrates the magnetic pull into a compact block, which makes it easier to position on narrow frames without conflicting with hinges or adjacent hardware. The shared 1-1/8 inch height across all three strike plates standardizes the vertical engagement zone, so layout marks can be transferred between inset, overlay, and full inset doors while maintaining the same relative strike height. The varying depths and lengths - 3/4 inch long for the flat plate, 7/8 inch deep and 3/4 inch long for the L-shaped plate, and 1/2 inch deep and 1-1/2 inches long for the Z-shaped plate - provide different reach profiles, which lets installers fine-tune how close the door sits when the magnet engages. The product is classified under locks and latches as a catch, indicating its role is to hold doors closed rather than provide security, which aligns it with cabinets, closets, and similar interior applications where positive closure is needed. The white description aligns with light cabinetry, giving a color reference that helps coordinate visible hardware in open cabinet interiors.
The 9765 magnetic catch white uses a flat strike for inset doors, an L-shaped strike for overlay doors, and a Z-shaped strike for full inset doors, so it can serve several cabinet door constructions on one project.
The BP97653W magnet housing measures 1-15/16 inches high by 3/4 inch deep by 11/16 inch long, giving a compact mounting footprint that suits narrow face frames and tight interior cabinet spaces.
The flat strike plate is 1-1/8 inches high by 3/4 inch long, providing a simple contact surface well suited to inset cabinet doors where the door edge aligns closely with the cabinet frame.
The L-shaped strike plate measures 1-1/8 inches high by 7/8 inch deep by 3/4 inch long, so its formed leg reaches over the door edge to engage the magnet on overlay doors.
The Z-shaped strike plate, at 1-1/8 inches high by 1/2 inch deep by 1-1/2 inches long, is specified for full inset doors where its stepped profile helps bridge the gap between door edge and magnet housing.
The Amerock part number BP97653W identifies this specific white magnetic catch assembly, which helps match the same catch across cabinet runs or reference it in project documentation.
The Amerock Corporation 9765 magnetic catch white gives one magnet housing with three defined strike plate geometries, so a single part number addresses inset, overlay, and full inset cabinet doors across a project. The compact 1-15/16 inch by 3/4 inch by 11/16 inch housing fits into tight cabinet framing, while the consistent 1-1/8 inch strike plate height simplifies layout when working through a run of doors. For cabinet and woodworking jobs sourced through Wurth Baer Supply, this BP97653W catch offers a clearly specified way to deliver positive door closure across varied cabinet constructions.
