Add Push-to-Open Functionality to Handleless Hidden Doors
19 Sep 2025 by Sugatsune
For a hidden door with a simpler construction, we recommend a combination of a magnetic latch and a concealed swing-door hinge. The metal magnet latch ML-ZN80 has a strong push force, making it suitable for large doors. When paired with the HES Series Concealed Hinges, it creates a completely flat door. It's useful not only for hidden entrances, but also for a broad range of applications, including storage closets beneath staircases.
