What is a magnetic lock on a door?
A magnetic lock works with a magnet in the door and a magnet in the frame or doorway. Once the door closes, the magnets attract each other, closing the door tightly.
Opening the door is smooth. A magnetic closure is hardly noticeable as there is a handle instead of a latch on the door. A door with such a lock hardly makes any noise. A magnetic closure otherwise requires little maintenance. Occasional cleaning is enough. A magnetic lock goes well with modern, clean-lined doors. It holds the door firmly in place while still being easy to open.

Different types of door handles
When putting together your aluminium door, you have complete freedom of choice when it comes to handles. For hinged doors and upstand doors choose from a variety of door handles to match the sleek style of the profile, such as a modern black handle or a model with a more classic design.

Advantages of a latch
