Deltana MC327 Magnetic Catch 3-1/8" x 1" x 3/4"

That's exactly what the MC327 is for. It's a magnetic catch that holds the door closed by magnet alone, so the door needs no latch, no strike prep and no visible latch hardware. Steel construction, and it's rated by Deltana for commercial use, not just residential cabinetry. You mount the catch body to the frame or cabinet interior and the strike plate to the door, and the door pulls open against the magnet.

The Trimco 810 Series heavy-duty magnetic catch covers the same job as the Deltana MC327. The MC327 is a steel magnetic catch measuring 3-1/8 inches by 1 inch by 3/4 inch, rated for commercial use and packed with its mounting hardware, so it holds a door closed without any latch hardware in the door edge. The Trimco 810 is the heavy-duty magnetic catch in Trimco's 810 Series. Both are surface-applied magnetic catches for the same kind of opening, so the decision usually comes down to the case dimensions you can fit and the finish you are matching on the rest of the door.

Yes. Each MC327 ships in an individual poly bag with its mounting hardware included, so you're not sourcing screws separately. It's sold by the each, so if you're doing a run of doors, order one per opening.

A magnetic catch like the Deltana MC327 holds with a magnet and steel strike, so there's no mechanical wear part and no click, and the door face stays clean because there's no latch bolt or strike mortise. A roller or ball catch gives you a positive detent you can feel and is more forgiving of a door that shifts seasonally. If the reason you're buying is a cleaner look and a cheaper install without latch prep, the magnetic catch is the right call.

ZenSupply carries the Trimco 810 Series heavy-duty magnetic catch as the step up. The Deltana MC327 is a steel commercial-grade catch at 3-1/8 x 1 x 3/4 inches, which suits cabinet, closet and light passage doors; for a high-traffic opening where you want more holding force, look at the Trimco 810.

Deltana classes the MC327 as commercial. It's a steel-bodied catch, not a plastic cabinet catch, so it holds up in an office, hospitality or multi-family setting on closet, millwork and cabinet doors. It is a catch, not a lock, so it provides no security, only hold-closed.

Both are built for commercial openings. The Deltana MC327 is a steel-bodied catch at 3-1/8 inches by 1 inch by 3/4 inch, which is a compact case for a cabinet door, closet, or a light interior door where you want no visible latch. The Trimco 810 is Trimco's heavy-duty magnetic catch from the 810 Series, and heavy-duty is the design intent of that model. For a door that gets pulled open dozens of times a day in a lobby or a corridor, the heavy-duty 810 is the one specified for that duty; for a lighter interior or cabinet opening where the 3/4 inch projection matters, the MC327 fits the space.

A magnetic catch is what holds the door closed, so it takes the place of latch hardware and gives a cleaner door edge and a simpler install. The Deltana MC327 is designed for exactly that, and it comes with its mounting hardware in the bag. What it does not do is lock, and it does not give you a latchbolt for a keyed or privacy opening - if the door needs to secure, the magnetic catch is not the substitute for a latchset, it is the alternative to one on a door that only needs to stay shut. The Trimco 810 heavy-duty magnetic catch works the same way. For any opening that needs to lock, specify a lockset and leave the catch for the passage and cabinet doors.

The MC327 is a single model at one size, 3-1/8 x 1 x 3/4 inches. There's no size or length choice to specify when you order it, just the quantity you need.
