CALPALMY Magnetic RV Baggage Door Catch Kit – 4-Pair White, Screw-On Weather-Resistant Holders

CALPALMY magnetic baggage door catch kit is a screw-on, weather-resistant magnetic holder that secures raised RV, camper and boat baggage doors hands-free.

If you regularly use a travel trailer, motor home, camper or boat hatch, fumbling with plastic spring clips or propping doors open with improvised stops is a hassle. This CALPALMY kit offers multiple screw-mounted magnetic catches in durable ABS housings with strong magnets, built to hold baggage doors open reliably through wind and light weather exposure. The set replaces spring clips and gives a simple, one-handed solution: lift the door and let the magnets grab.

How do these magnetic catches work and install on my RV?

The catches attach with screws: one magnet assembly mounts to the inside face of the raised baggage door and the matching plate mounts to the RV body. When the door is lifted, the magnet and plate mate and hold the door in position without straps or clips. Installation is straightforward and typically takes only a few minutes per pair.

• Screw-on design — predrilled pilot holes recommended for best alignment.
• Mount one half on the door edge and the other on the adjacent wall surface.
• Ensure the two halves line up to maintain full magnetic pull strength.
• Kit supplies screws for immediate mounting; add sealant if desired for exterior fittings.

Will these magnets resist weather and repeated outdoor use?

The CALPALMY catch housings are molded from impact-resistant ABS plastic to stand up to outdoor conditions, and the magnets are chosen for strong, lasting pull. While not a waterproof electrical device, the materials are selected to tolerate sun, wind and occasional moisture common around RV and marine storage compartments.

• ABS plastic casing resists cracking and UV degradation.
• Strong neodymium-style magnets maintain grip over repeated cycles.
• Suitable for exterior baggage doors and boat hatches with normal exposure.
• Periodic checks recommended if exposed to saltwater or extreme climates.

How does this kit compare with plastic spring clips and other door holders?

Unlike brittle plastic spring clips that can break or require two hands to operate, magnetic catches offer a silent, effortless one-handed engagement. They don’t rely on springs or moving plastic parts that wear out, and mounting multiple pairs gives flexible positioning for different door sizes and load conditions.

• Hands-free: lift door and let magnets engage instantly.
• Durability: fewer moving parts reduces failure points.
• Versatility: mount where clips can’t reach or for heavier doors.
• Available in multi-packs (2-pack and 4-pack) for whole-vehicle coverage.

What size doors and loads are these catches suited for?

These magnetic catches are designed for typical raised baggage doors and boat hatches rather than heavy service doors. They work best when the door is lifted and held vertically or near-vertical; for very large or wind-exposed doors you may prefer multiple catches or a supplementary support method.

• Recommended for standard RV, camper and boat storage compartment doors.
• Use two or more pairs for larger or heavier doors to increase holding power.
• Not intended as a primary safety latch for doors under heavy load.
• Helps keep compartments open while loading, unloading, or accessing tools.

Who this is for: CALPALMY magnetic baggage door catches suit RV owners, boaters and frequent campers who want a low-effort, long-lasting alternative to plastic spring clips. They’re ideal for DIY installers, fleet managers and anyone replacing brittle or missing door clips with a cleaner, quieter hands-free solution. Choose the 4-pair kit for multiple compartments, or the smaller set for targeted replacements.
