UV-Resistant Magnetic Cabinet Catch Replacement
Designed as a direct replacement for the magnetic catches commonly used on shutter-style windows, cabinets, doors, and similar applications. The original plastic catches tend to become brittle and fail after prolonged UV exposure, especially when installed outdoors or in direct sunlight.
I created this replacement so I could print it in PETG (or another weather-resistant material) and avoid repeatedly replacing the factory parts.
Features
- Direct replacement for the original magnetic catch housing
- Designed to reuse the original magnet and hardware
- Ideal for shutter-style windows exposed to sunlight
- PETG-friendly design for improved outdoor durability
- Easy and inexpensive to reprint if needed
Installation
- Remove the failed original catch.
- Transfer the magnet from the original part.
- Install the printed replacement using the original mounting hardware.
- Verify proper alignment and latching force.
