Video Transcript for Bauer Products Magnetic Door Holder for Trailer Compartment Doors Review

Hey everyone. Shane here with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the magnetic door holders by Bauer Products. These are gonna be great for your basement doors, or for your storage doors on your campers. And if we compare them to like your typical shocks that you have, they only allow you to open your door about halfway to maybe three-quarters of the way. With adding the magnets on, it allows us to open our doors pretty much flat up against our wall to give us plenty of space.

Now, if we compare them to, let's say, we don't have the shocks on, and we have the latches like this that would hold your doors up. The problem with these are that you still got a lot of movement in there. So let's say the wind blows. Now we have our door handle banging up against the side of our camper. But these are also plastic, so these tend to break quite a bit.

When you get into those cooler conditions, this plastic can get brittle, and again, they start falling apart. Magnetic, or the magnets, these are gonna be glass-filled nylon, so they're gonna hold up in extreme conditions. You don't have to worry about them breaking. They're gonna hold 10 pounds each. And if you double them, so if you have a negative and a positive, you double that.

You can get them in a couple of different ways. You can do it how we did it here. Since we had the slam latches which a lot of the newer campers are coming out with them, if you had to slam latches, it's gonna require a negative and a positive. If you don't have slam latches, there are kits that have the striker plates, which the striker plate we just mount on the wall, or mount on your door and it's gonna work the same way. Because your magnet has somewhere to stick to.

Now we've gone over some of the features, let's walk you through how to get them installed. For your installation you determine where you're gonna put your magnet. We're gonna put it on the bottom of our door handle here. We'll center it. And then we'll take the two screws that come included and secure it to the door. We're using the negative and a positive. Insert two screws into the side that's gonna mount to your wall. Put them together. We'll rotate this up. And we're gonna push on the door a little bit. And then it puts two marks where your screws are gonna go. Once you get your second one put on, you're gonna repeat the process for any other door you're adding magnets too. That's gonna do it for a look at an installation on the magnetic door holder by Bauer products..

by:

Required with magnet of opposite polarity and does excellent job of holding door open.



by:

Screws were too long and went completely through my RV Basement Compartment doors. Would be nice to be able to check screw lengths first prior to purchase or did I overlook something here. With a few minor adjustments I was able to add a small piece of wood to the inside of the doors to screw into so that the screws don't protrude out beyond the door and avoid possible injury when handling the doors.



by:

Inexpensive, functional, adapted by me to hold screen door to RV door.



by:

The parts worked as advertised. Great replacement for my old hatch door holders.



by:

Order arrived within reasonable time as promised and magnets work great.



by:

There is nothing more you can ask of an online than retailer than the effort and execution offered by etrailer.com

Within minutes of placing my order, I received an order confirmation. 2 hours later, another email saying my order had shipped with tracking in. Arrived with days of placing the order via UPS.

Excellent product selection, competitive pricing, great customer service and fast shipping.



by:

I am using the product to replace the existing door magnets on my camper. The plastic housing of magnets on my camper, which are 5 years old, have started to crack and the magnets are rusting. I like the new magnets because they are to the same dimension and fit correctly. They were easy to install with the supplied hardware. I will like them even more if they are made of a more resilient plastic and do not fall apart in 5 years.



by:

Exactly what we needed! Magnets work great and were easy to install. Screws were just a bit too long for the thickness of the cargo door so we used slightly shorter ones. Overall, great product!



by:

Great replacement. Fit perfectly. Broke key off in our old one and this fixed our issue. Love etrailer!!



by:

These magnets seem to have more pull then the origionals and were the correct bolt spacing. I have ordered cheaper replacements before with limited pull but I think the key is buying the North / South magnets for maximum strength.



by:

Exactly as expected

  • Will Bauer Magnetic Door Holder Be Able to Hold Wet Compartment Door Weight
    The Bauer Products Steel Strike Plate # BA78VR and Negative Magnetic Door Holder for Compartment Doors # BA38VR has a 10-lb rating but that is doubled if you also install the Positive Magnetic Door Holder # BA58VR to 20-lbs. As long as your compartment door doesn't weigh more than 20 lbs when wet this solution will work just fine! Attached is a review video for you to check out.
