What magnets is everyone using when the secure the skin or doors to their stands (obviously if your stand skin isn't fasten by screws and doors by hinges)? Pics on how your doors and/it skin would be greatly appreciated too. Thanks
 
I went to lowes and got cheap packs of multiple magnet discs. They work well. I used flat pieces of metal on the inside of the skin that would attach to magnets I had sunk into the stand. My only regret with this is that it would hold stronger if I had went for magnet to magnet attachment.

Never crossed my mind to use a flat sheet of metal. Have been racking my brain trying to figure hiding magnet to magnet. Might have to give the metal to magnet a try. Thanks
Thanks!
