RV Cabinet Catches: JR Barrel, Roller, Magnetic & Push Types

If a cabinet door opens while you travel, first identify its catch mechanism rather than picking a replacement by colour. A barrel catch, a double roller, a magnetic holder and a spring-loaded catch can serve the same purpose but do not use the same receiving hardware. This guide compares 11 JR Products cabinet catch models carried by NewRVParts, with their actual part numbers and matching product listings.

How different cabinet catches hold a door closed

Barrel / frictionA clip or mating piece engages the catch with pressure.
RollerA clip or prong engages between rollers; the receiver style matters.
MagneticA magnet attracts a metal strike plate instead of gripping a prong.
Spring / touchMoving internal latch parts retain or release the cabinet door.

JR Products cabinet catch comparison

The most useful differences are the mating piece, package quantity and, for roller styles, the actual roller size. The table scrolls sideways on smaller screens so full words and part numbers stay readable.

JR part number Catch mechanism Pieces per package What distinguishes it
JR 70205 Barrel catch and metal clip 6 Six per package; for a cabinet door that uses a barrel-style friction engagement.
JR 70215 Nylon friction catch with metal clip 2 A nylon friction mechanism and metal clip; supplied as a pair.
JR 70225 Double-roller catch with clip 2 Twin rollers retain a clip-style receiver; supplied as a pair.
JR 70235 Double-roller catch with prong 2 Double-roller body with a prong-type mating piece; supplied as a pair.
JR 70245 Heavy-duty roller catch 1 Roller width is 0.63 inch; compare to the original catch profile.
JR 70255 Regular roller catch 2 Roller width is 0.33 inch; supplied as a pair.
JR 70275 Surface-mounted magnetic catch 1 Includes a flat and a 90-degree angled bracket for different mounting arrangements.
JR 70305 Bull Dog cabinet catch 2 A different mechanical retaining style; supplied as a pair.
JR 70435 Spring-loaded cabinet catch 1 Manufacturer-supplied large strike corresponds to part 70445.
JR 70455 Push-to-open touch catch 1 Mounts inside the cabinet; a push on the closed door releases the catch.
JR 70485 Catch with multiple strike depths 1 Manufacturer-listed strike depths: 5/8, 3/4, 7/8 and 1 inch.
Do not confuse the double-roller receivers. JR 70225 is the double-roller catch with clip; JR 70235 is the double-roller catch with prong. JR 70245 and 70255 also differ in roller width—0.63 inch and 0.33 inch, respectively. Check the existing mating piece, not only the outer appearance.

Choose a replacement using the original hardware

Check the receiverOpen the cabinet and inspect both the door-mounted and frame-mounted pieces. A missing or bent strike can make a sound catch appear defective.
Check alignmentMeasure the mounting points and the gap between the closed door and cabinet frame. The catch must engage without forcing the door out of alignment.
Check opening actionMost catches release when you pull the door. The JR 70455 is different: it releases when you push the door inward, so it suits a different opening arrangement.

For a magnetic arrangement, JR 70275 includes both flat and 90-degree brackets. For spring-loaded JR 70435, the manufacturer identifies the large cabinet strike as part 70445. These details help distinguish replacement styles, but they do not establish that a new catch will fit previously drilled holes.

Use the catalog photographs to compare the construction and receiver style, then open the exact product to check current availability.

What to check before installation

Cabinets vary in door thickness, frame clearance and the backing material available for screws. Match the original screw-hole pattern where possible, check that the new strike lines up, and test the latch with the door fully closed before loading the cabinet for travel.
