Michael: Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a quick look at the Bauer Products Magnetic Door Holder. This will mount onto your RV or motor home's compartment door to allow you to make sure that that door will stay open rather than having to worry about it slamming shut, causing damage to your luggage or causing harm to yourself or anyone else that is loading or unloading your gear. This will require a strike plate to be mounted on the other portion of your compartment door area so that the door will stick to it. Very easy to get both pieces mounted in place.
You can see we've got clear holes here.Now, our door holder does not come with any hardware. The strike plate does. You can find the strike plate using that part number that you see on the screen there. But that will make it very easy for you to just open up your compartment door and have it stick there so that it stays open. This does give you about 10 pounds of full strength and 10 pound weight holding capability if you're using the strike plate.
If you instead decide to go with the negative component, that's going to double your weight capacity. It will give you 20 pounds of weight capacity pull strength, so very, very strong that way if you decide to go with that option. That part number is on the screen there. Depending on your needs, how strong of a hold you're wanting for your compartment door, either way, it's going to be great option to make sure that everything is staying in place. You don't have to worry about that door closing on you.These are made of a glass filled nylon casing.
That's going to provide a lot of strength and durability, especially if it's exposed to extreme temperatures while it's in storage or while you're out camping. It will hold up really well for you.Our overall dimensions, we're looking at right about one and a half inches in diameter. Our overall height, about one and a quarter of an inch there. Our mounting holes are one inch center to center, so you can see there. Very easy to get this mounted in place with some hardware.
Just put your screws through there, mount them onto your compartment door, and then get your strike plate or negative magnet to allow it to catch hold off and hold your door open for you.That's going to complete our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

10-lb Magnet pairs with Bauer steel strike plate (BA88VR - sold separately) to hold a compartment door open on your trailer while you're loading and unloading. Strength is doubled when used with negative magnetic holder (BA68VR -sold separately).My outside refrigerator door did not come with any type of stay. This worked perfectly. The staff at etrailer offered me some other options to expedite my order which was very accommodating. Everything went perfectly.

1 year later still works perfect. Holds my outside fridge door open.
This part keeps my storage door open so I don't have to use the back of my head. Doesn't interfere with letting down the bed.

Still working great!
Did not come with steel backing plate , and none available on website very disappointed when I received the magnet…
Added to my 2022 Imagine. Factory installed door holder didn’t make contact with door even when fully opened. This works perfect to hold door open during High winds
Got this because after installing rv lock keyless door handle the door handle would touch the rv before the magnetic latch. The worked perfect to correct that issue.
The item is as described and works with the slam latches on our Alliance fifth wheel. My only issue is that I should have gotten the reverse polarity or negative holder, I had to dig out the magnet out of the holder and flip it. Not too hard.
worked well for my door
Fixed our problem after having put on a keyless entry lock that then prevented the door from touching the manufacturer's door magnet.
just what I was looking for to hold door
Very strong magnets. I purchased an alternate product on [online vendor] and it was garbage.
Perfect, just like the others on my Alliance Valor

This magnetic catch has been perfectly what I needed. Placed on black logo on side of trailer so it’s barely noticeable. Has held the door to our outside kitchen perfectly.
