Catches & Bolts

Are magnetic catches, roller bolts and flush bolts available?
Yes. The accessories range includes magnetic catches and roller bolts. These are used where a door needs to be held closed or secured in position, depending on the application.

What is a roller bolt?
A roller bolt is a spring loaded bolt used to hold a door closed without a latch. It is commonly used where a clean look is preferred and the door does not require a locking function.

What is a magnetic catch?
A magnetic catch uses a magnet to hold a door closed. It is commonly used on cabinetry and doors where a quiet close and simple hold is preferred.

How do I choose between a roller bolt and a magnetic catch?
As a general guide:

• choose a roller bolt where you want a mechanical hold and a more positive closing action
• choose a magnetic catch where you want a quiet, simple hold with minimal mechanical feel

Are finishes available to match other hardware?
These are functional items and finish availability can vary by product, material and construction method. If matching is important, confirm the finish options before ordering.

Are roller bolts and magnetic catches easy to install?
Many are straightforward to install for an experienced installer or capable tradesperson. For the best result, confirm the door preparation, dimensions and fixing method before installation.

What should I check before ordering?
Before ordering, confirm:

• door type and door thickness
• whether you need a hold only or a latch and lock function
• door weight and expected usage
• door preparation and clearances
• finish requirements
