Magnetic Latch

thingiverse

I needed a custom latch that fit perfectly and functioned exactly as I wanted it to. Failing to find anything suitable at local stores, I decided to design and print one specifically tailored to my needs. The latch was designed for use on a plain screen-type door frame. Since someone else might benefit from this solution, I've posted it here in the hopes that others may find it useful if they need something similar. Parts Needed for 1 Latch Set: - 1x Latch 1 - 1x Latch 2 - 2x Latch Cover - Super/CA or other glue (optional) to secure the lid once fitted - Screws (#6, 1/2") https://www.homedepot.com/p/6-x-1-2-in-Zinc-Philips-Flat-Head-Coarse-Thread-1000-per-Box-0-FPC06012Z/300513656 - Ceramic Block Magnets: 3/4" x 1" x 3/16" (1.9cm x 2.5cm x .48cm) https://www.lowes.com/pd/Hillman-3-Count-Magnetic-Blocks/50016986#542020
