How to fix a drawer that opens on its own

- Some of the drawers of my wardrobe don't stay closed anymore. The DIY fix for the problem was to install a magnetic catch that keeps the drawer shut when it's closed.

2021 Lol 😂 will try this one. Who loves the information overload we have in this generation? I can search for anything these days.
I do... sometimes. And, sometimes I hate it. It depends on the day. Lol I love that YT and other similar technology is like having an encyclopedia set, a repair manual, and everything else like that, at your fingertips.
Alternatively purge the evil spirits away from your furniture.
This video solved my problem. When I looked in the cabinet to see where to place my magnet, I found a sock that had popped out of the drawer and into the slide. Now that I've removed it, the drawer stays shut!
Thank you! You have saved my sanity!

ANy suggestions for a metal cabinet drawer as I can drill into the metal. thanks
I’d use those strip magnets with the sticky back.
Very helpful
What did you do for the other drawers that aren’t at the top? There’s no extra piece of wood for us to attach the magnets to. We are doing this right now with a bureau I have
Hey, after publishing the video I put magnets on some drawers at the bottom. Email me at theleftymaker at gmail dot com and I'll send you a picture.
Just tell the ghost that they can't live in your room anymore✨✨✨
Cooooool bro👌🏻👌🏻🙏
Thanks for the video. Where do you get the magnet? What is the point if you do not tell us where you got the product?
You really don't know how to look for and purchase something? It's a catch magnet. Look it up.
Where can I purchase this magnetic things any one can help me pls tnx
Where can I purchase those magnets?
Try asking at a hardware store. Most should have them.
BigBruceFan I just looked them up. Amazon also has them under “Litepack magnetic catch for cabinets” for $10
Does it work at aluminium drawer?
This can also be accomplished by shimming the front two corners of the dresser-you may need a shim in the middle too if the dresser is quite wide (3 drawers wide or more).
What's shimming please explain
There are plastic v-shaped pieces that slide under the corners of furniture. It's an easy way to level furniture on uneven floors
Where do you buy those magnets? I didnt see them at Home Depot. Any recommendations?
amazon
what is name of company which made product that failed in less than a year?
Its alternative to bypass root cause. I expected to find cause
Any one can show and help me where to buy this thing
much easier to use adhesive back magnetic tape.
Good for you but his is a permanent fix. After a while, Your idea, the tape will dry out and fall off or Won't be strong enough to hold in the 1st place. his way is better.
That didn’t work for me. I bought Magnet Source magnetic tape (made by Master Magnetics in Castle Rock, Co) at our local hardware store and a magnetic metal plate. The plate sticks to the magnet side of the tape but it’s not strong enough.
@@keithcearlock8768 my experience was the same.
thanks bruf
I’m too nervous to try this I’m afraid that I will drill right through.
smart
It’s a different drawer in the repair than the initial
Part of the video. Doesn’t work for inset drawers
oohh, thats what i want
Telescopy problem
Doesn't seems to be a permanent solution
I'm curious what makes you think this way. The drawers have been working fine for two years now.
the sound is not good I am quite disappointed
Tryd this 🤦🏽 didn’t work
2022 😂
