Bill of Materials
Description
This 3D-printed replacement magnet is suitable for common magnetic child safety locks for kitchen cabinets (e.g. the frequently sold Amazon models).
The original magnet was lost? No problem:
This model is specifically designed to accommodate seven 10×3 mm neodymium magnets, achieving sufficiently high magnetic force to reliably open the locks. The newly printed magnet fits perfectly into the original holder.
In my case, six magnets were not enough to reach through a cabinet door.
🔧 Details
- Required: 7× 10×3 mm neodymium magnets, 7 of my magnets had a combined height of 20.5mm
- Filament consumption: approx 6 g
- Print time: ~9 minutes
- Compact, stable, and ideal as a replacement or secondary magnet
- Perfect for kitchen, bathroom, or other child-proof cabinets
🧲 Assembly
The magnets can simply be pressed in or fixed with a drop of superglue.
Ensure all magnets have the same pole orientation and are correctly aligned with the magnet in the lock.
