Questions & Answers

How much does each item weigh?

It will be 1 1/2 inches to the other hole if your hole is 1 1/2 inches apart. You should be able to do it. It is important to measure the hole to hole distance. Its up to you to adjust it forward or backward with a 1/4-inch tolerance. It cracks after so many years if the white plastic is not handled properly. Direct sunlight can damage plastic, especially if it is hitting it directly.

I'm from the beginning to the Does the distance between the stops equal ?

In this unit, there are 1 3/4" screw holes arranged 1 1/2" apart from end to end.

Please let me know the dimensions of this product? (I am not asking about the package dimensions) ?

It has a length of 2 inches and a width of about 1/2 inch.

What is the difference between the two dimensions?

In the picture, the dimensions are clearly visible.

Nine dollars gets you a set of five magnets
5/5

There is a 99 and not a A seller I ordered from sold me two sets A total of five pieces were involved in each. In total, I received only one set, which consisted of five pieces The magnet, the backplate, and three screws are included. The reason I returned was that I wanted 10 sets and As a result of ordering from MPJ, I received 10 individually packaged sets so I am delighted to have spent $20 on 10 shutter magnet sets the second time rather than $10 on one. My sincere thanks go out to you for your fast service, accurate listing and reasonable price. It will be my pleasure to order again when I need it!.

This magnet is for replacing the one on the door of the mailbox
4/5

This is a replacement magnet for the mailbox door magnet, which had finally eroded because of a hot day The magnetic bracket is easy to install into the original magnet's bracket. I would have preferred a black or dark brown color, however, it's a mail box, so white was fine. There's a need to glue the other half to the door, but it has been too cold to set the glue Although the magnet attracts metal of the door enough to keep it closed, it is not highly effective. Buy a used mailbox rather than a new one, much easier and cheaper!.

It's hard to believe that the sun is so deadly
4/5

shutters are what one of my homes former owners installed along with the plantation shutters so that they would remain closed during the winter. In that regard, they did a good job. The only problem is that I have to live in a suburb of Phoenix, Arizona, where the sun shines brightly & There is a lot of heat in the summer. It was as if the white plastic had been turned to powder by the heat. Probably a lot of time went into that, I don't know how long it took. It was necessary for me to replace all of them with stainless steel ones and In general, they should last longer than I do. It's highly recommended, if you do not live where the sun shines brightly & if you do not live in southern climates There is a lot of heat in the summer.

It is impossible for them to weigh 15 pounds
3/5

The magnets were too strong for me to handle, but I knew I was in trouble when I removed them from the metal plate by hand. It took hardly any In a speaker cabinet, I’m using these screws to hold a light piece of plywood used as a door. There are only two catches to support the weight of the whole thing -- and that was less than 10 pounds. It didn't achieve any advantage no matter how I adjusted the plate to make sure the magnet lined up with it. Despite the fact that they were no stronger than the unrated catches I already had, I decided to use them anyway because the quality was better.

Originals just like they used to be! The windows in our house are all equipped with plantation shutters
5/5

Over ten years ago, some of these systems were installed. Heat exposure caused one window on an east facing side to break. Magnets exactly like the ones provided by the original manufacturer (Hunter Douglas). So there were no additional holes to be drilled, as they fit in the original screw locations. When the shutter is opened, they function perfectly, and the resistance is not the right amount.

It comes as no surprise As promised, the product performed as expected
5/5

We got them to replace the magnetic latches on our shutter windows that were original. The old resin had become brittle from the sun and heat, and broken off. Only the magnetic latches needed to be replaced because the metal brackets (attached to shutters) and the original screws were left in place. Besides the perfect size and ease of dropping, it was easy to use as well. It can be used as a The price may not be too bad either, but this will probably need to be replaced in a few years.

This is perfect
5/5

It's new to the left and old to the right. To see a difference, you need to look close. The only difference is that the new one is silver instead of gold, brass, or copper. All of the plates lined up the same as on the old ones, so there was no need to replace them. The whole same as well as To replace the ones on my SunBurst shutters, I used these.

Magnets used to hold down shutters
4/5

My shutters are held up to the windows with the help of these magnets. A new set of old ones had to be installed after 29 years of use. Exactly what I was looking for.
