Have some shed doors (identical to a normal solid wood front door) that i want to simply remain closed by the use of magnets, when coming in and out a lot.
The neatest way i can think of is using some of those strong magnets with holes already in them screwed to the inside door frame at the top and with a small length of wood screwed to the top inside face of the door raising another magnet that meets up with the one on the top frame. Hope that's clear.
I have tried those double quite strong cupboard magnets, the kind you can get in B and Q type stores and i thought that they would hold, surprisingly even a small wind just blows the door open.
I can buy the Neodymium (strong type) magnets with holes with a; 1.6, 2.4,
4.8, 5.6, or 9.8 kg pull strength. Any ideas on what strength you think I should go for? Bearing in mind we dont want the door too sticky.
