Has anyone purchased extra magnets for this door and if so what kind and how did you attach them? Thank you

I had planned to buy extra magnets but I have not. We took it down for the winter but I think something like super glue would would fine.

I haven't felt the need for additional magnets. We have two hung on French Doors and my dog goes in and out all day long...If the screen is hung correctly the magnets are aligned you wouldn't need additional magnets. The curtain swings open and then closes perfectly with the two attached magnets.

I used anchored screws on the top. The bottom has (included if I remember right) L brackets that work pretty good. Mine haven't budged since I put them up. I'd just be careful opening it because the weight of the door may throw the balance off. Just keep the door supported and don't let it swing free. I usually open it JUST enough to put the glass in.

I believe we used that 'foam' like tape. It did come off quite frequently though. I bought my son a different style that just hangs around the door knob for Christmas. We'll see if that works better.

This will serve your purpose. The doors don't bang when closed because of the cushion these provide. If you have a door which swings open on its own, then you would need a magnet.

Yup! I just stuck a magnet to it. take a look at the picture, it does what it looks like. hope this helps!

I used Scotch double-sided exterior tape. Placed it along the edge of each piece and it adhered to the door well. It has held up since I placed it last summer.

Yes. You can buy a pack of two magnets that I have done in the past through amazon. Here is the link. Cat Mate Cat Collar Magnets for Electromagnetic DoorsCat Mate (31)

The only way we could attach them was by placing them above the door thus aligning them. I know some reviewers said their letters had matching holes but unfortunately we did not have the same experience so ours did not line up. I did not like how they looked hanging by ribbons.

NO. I took the magnets off the OLD curtain and used some Velcro and double sided tape to install on the new curtain.I have no idea why they didn't put magnets on the new curtain. They should have.

No there are no magnets included, but you can always get some from the craft store and attach.

I has been a while since I put the cabinet together, but I believe the cabinet door came predrilled with holes for the handles on the bottom. I suppose if you are handy, you could mount the doors on the opposite ends, and move the magnet from the top to the bottom if you wanted the handles on the top, but I'm not sure.

I used a rare earth magnet, like this one http://www.amazon.com/Applied-Magnets-Earth-Neodymium-Discs/dp/B0012AUU84/ref=cm_sw_em_r_dp2_Jpcdsb1MR98FM_tt and super-glued it to the back to stick it to the refrigerator. It works well... and I have 99 magnets to spare! :-)

The magnet was pretty strong, but the cat would not use the door until I cut off the flap and replaced it with window screen. Since it is on the patio screen door, when it is cold or windy we open the glass door long enough for the cat to go out or come in. Hope this helps.

You have to be creative. you will still want the magnets to line up so if you want the opening in the middle of the skinnier doorway, start there (adhere the top of the meshes making sure the magnets are meeting and the bottom of the mesh is barely touching the floor). then place the velcro on the edges of the door opening (door frame), then peel the backs off of those velcro strips on the door frame and stick the mesh to the sticky back. then trim any excess. if you're a seamstress, you can measure and put a hem on where you plan to put the velcro for the edges of the door frame. should be a relatively easy but detailed project. OORRR... if you don't want to trim the excess and there's enough wall to keep the mesh spread out, you can just attach the velcro to the edges of the mesh to where it lands on the wall.

Howdy! I put these in my home on the interior doors to prevent the wind from blowing them closed. They are eight foot solid wood doors so are heavy and a lot of area for the breeze to catch. They work great and I love them for this application. When you say a "commercial" door I visualize an outside door with a door closer and you are wanting an easy way to hold it open when needed. I personnally do not think the magnet is strong enough for either outside winds or the strength of a door closer.

Use the Ruff Weather door from the same manufacturer. Great doors that do a great job of keeping the cold side cold and the warm side warm. The regular doors don't work very well at this.

Lucy, I will tell you this.....the hooks that go over the door are very weak. 4 days after attaching it to the door, it came crashing down. Sorry for the negative comments but you should know.
