Is there anything

Is there anything to Neutralize the magnets on the cabinet doors? When we sat for months this winter I took the plate off the magnetic side of the door so they opened freely but now with weekly travel till next January I am hoping someone has something that simply covers the magnet so I don’t have to keep taking the contact plate off the door. Any suggestions?

It would be awesome if the magnets where electric so you could just turn them off when you arrive. I have grown to dislike yanking hard in each door to open them but yes I understand why it’s needed for travel.

Another magnet?
Can you turn one of the magnets 90 degrees? That would decrease the holding ability of the magnet.

What if you placed a small piece of felt on the contact plate to lessen the magnetic attachment force?
