9765 magnetic catch is an Amerock Corporation catch designed for full inset door applications, so it provides a defined pull point that helps hold a door shut in its final position. The tan magnetic housing visually blends with many light cabinet interiors, which can help the hardware recede from view on finished work. The product uses a Z-shaped strike for full inset door applications, so the strike geometry reaches the back of the door edge while the door face sits flush with the cabinet frame. This Z-shaped layout supports secure engagement between magnet and strike, which helps reduce door rattle when the cabinet is closed. The catch belongs to the Locks and Latches|Catches category, so it functions as a small closure device that helps keep doors from drifting open in normal use.
The Amerock Corporation CM9765FPT magnetic catch uses its 11/16 inch high magnet housing to sit low against a cabinet surface, which helps installers reference frame lines and hinge locations when planning placement. The 3/4 inch depth of the housing determines how far the magnet projects, so its position can be chosen to meet the 1/2 inch deep strike in a straight path. With a strike plate height of 1-1/8 inch, there is a vertical band where the magnet can engage, giving flexibility when aligning to existing door reveals. The 1-1/2 inch strike length provides front-to-back coverage on the door edge, which helps the magnet find the strike even if the door settles slightly in normal service.
This magnetic catch is designed for full inset door applications, so it is suited to cabinets where the door face sits within the frame opening rather than overlaying it. The Z-shaped strike works with this layout by stepping to meet the inside of the door, so the catching surface aligns with the magnet while the outer face remains flush with the cabinet frame. The compact magnet housing at 11/16 inch high, 3/4 inch deep, and 15/16 inch long lets the catch sit on rails, stiles, or cabinet floors without dominating the interior, which is useful when space is constrained by shelves or interior dividers. The 1-1/8 inch high strike plate gives a modest vertical area that can line up with the magnet at different mounting heights, supporting use on a range of door sizes within the full inset style. The tan housing color coordinates with many lighter woods and laminates, which can be important when the catch is visible inside open cabinetry.
The 3/4 inch depth of the magnet housing and 1/2 inch depth of the strike plate define the working air gap between door and cabinet, so installers can use these dimensions to set a consistent closing feel across multiple doors on the same run. The 1-1/2 inch length of the strike plate increases the front-to-back engagement area, which can help the magnet maintain contact even if the door experiences minor movement from loading or normal wear. The catch sits within the Locks and Latches|Catches product class, so it functions as a simple mechanical aid to keep doors resting against their stops instead of drifting open from small frame irregularities. The Z-shaped strike for full inset door applications also brings the metal contact surface closer to the magnet without building out the door face, which helps preserve the intended full inset appearance while still delivering a positive closing point. Together, these dimensions and shapes support repeatable alignment on cabinet projects that use inset doors.
The 9765 magnetic catch is designed for full inset door applications, so it suits doors that sit flush within the cabinet frame rather than overlaying the face.
The Z-shaped strike for full inset door applications steps inward to reach the door edge, so the magnet can engage while the door remains flush with the frame.
The CM9765FPT magnet housing is 11/16 inch high, 3/4 inch deep, and 15/16 inch long, so it occupies a compact footprint inside the cabinet.
The strike plate measures 1-1/8 inch high, 1/2 inch deep, and 1-1/2 inch long, providing a clear target area for consistent magnetic engagement with the door.
The tan magnetic catch finish coordinates with many light-colored cabinet interiors, helping the catch blend visually with shelves, sides, and back panels.
This Amerock magnetic catch is listed under Locks and Latches|Catches, so it serves as a cabinet catch that helps keep doors closed against normal movement.
