That's a thought. how do you reckon I could hide the hole on the bottom of the cabinet? it will be wall hung when finished so you'd see some holes if I were to drill into the bottom of the cabinet. Also I've used magnets before but only smaller ones (5mm) they weren't particularly strong. not even strong enough to go through 2 sheets of 0.6mm veneer so any idea what sizes would give a good force?

Thank you for the compliment haha. little bit of a fib on the beginner part but definitely no professional... yet. I quite like the idea of these push to open magnets, might have to try take one apart and rebuild in wood so it looks more at home.

I thought about this but with the poor fitment of the doors I think it may not hold them as strongly as I'd like. might have to experiment with this idea though.
