Keeping A Doll House Wardrobe Closed With Magnets

Over the past year with restrictions put in place to keep us safe, many people have had time to pick up a new hobby or give their hand to some DIY, one parent and customer has got into touch showing us the extra steps they have taken to make an amazing addition to their daughter’s doll house.

This customer really has added a stunning addition to their daughter’s house of dreams which any parent would be proud to display and we were fascinated to find out our magnets played a key role in providing the stylish look this customer desired.

This customer required two magnets from our range firstly two of our ultra-high performance rectangular N52 Neodymium magnets as well as four of our self-adhesive N42 Neodymium magnets.

The rectangular N52 Neodymium magnets used are small but incredibly strong and are ideal for fixtures or fittings and with each magnet being coated with three layers of nickel, copper, nickel providing a smooth and clean finish they are perfect for both the sleek and secure elements this customer desired.  

The second magnets used, our self-adhesive N42 Neodymium magnets, combine the performance of neodymium with the convenience of self-adhesive making them ideal for crafts, packaging, retail displays and even creating fridge magnets or book closures.

These high-performance magnets are available with either pole on the non-adhesive side of the magnet and although the initial touch bond strength is enough to support the magnets weight, we recommend only having to leave the adhesive 24 to 32 hours to fully cure.


Having ordered and received their magnets this customer then added them to the 50cm tall handmade oak wardrobe to provide a sleek and secure closure when storing the dolls clothes and accessories.

This customer attached the rectangular N52 Neodymium magnets inside the wardrobe, one at the top and bottom of the centre of the wardrobe before then adding the four self-adhesive N42 Neodymium magnets to the wardrobe doors, one in each far corner.

This incredibly clever application of our magnets can be seen in the video below, demonstrating the smooth, stylish and secure closing of the wardrobe doors.
