As an owner of an RV or camper, youve been there, busy loading and unloading the baggage compartment only for the door to fall back the moment you grabbed something out Youll either use one hand to support the door, let someone support it, or use the trusted prop-up stick technique But since we are in modern times, the plastic spring clip replaced the prop-up stick but they still somehow work the same way You still need to clip and unclip the latch - theres no room for hurry And then came the almost magical magnetic baggage door catch but it doesnt work But is it really the catch or is it something else These catches have a straightforward function but there are several factors that can affect their effectiveness and longevity here are several tips for a head-ache free installation and usage: The catches should be used in a way that they attach to each other when you open the door These catches arent meant to hold onto steel doors directly Theres just too much surface for the magnet to hold onto in comparison to its size But if it is attached to another magnet, especially if they are directly connected to one another, both magnets be able to exert their maximum pull strength For the same reason stated above, the magnets should be aligned to each other with full surface-to-surface contact To avoid rusting, you can run a bead of sealant under the catch to seal the screw holes You can also apply a dab of silicone sealant to the head of the screw to protect it from corrosion Silicone sealants also stay flexible so its easy to remove as needed You may need more than a pair of RV magnet door catches The good news is that the calPalmy Magnetic Baggage Door catch and Holder Kit comes in two and four pair variations Youll need one pair on the upper left-side and another pair on the upper right side of the baggage door For wider doors, you may need two pairs in between Magnetic catches for RV and camper doors are innovative yet simple s
