Holds a door open with magnets. Design combines 2 printed parts with some stock hardware.
1 printed base piece
1 bolt: threading 1/4-20. Length 1 inch.
This holds the base and ball joint together
1 ball joint commonly used in camera rigging gear. Should have standard 1/4-20 threading
1 hex nut with 1/4-20 threading
This holds the magnet plate onto the ball joint swivel
1 printed magnet plate
1 or 2 bar magnets. 60mm x 10mm x 3mm
2 Small screws to mount the base to the wall.
(Alternative) 2 medium command strips for mounting
Superglue to hold magnets to plate
Use 2 magnets if door weight pulls it free. 1 magnet may be plenty if the door is balanced.
After installing let the ball joint get a strong connection to the door with exact alignment, then tighten it into position.
Command strips may work to hold the base to the wall but use 2 and really follow the instructions: clean the wall spot first and let it dry. Hold pressure for 20s to set the glue. Let it cure overnight before using it to catch the door.
