How to Replace a Closet Door Ball Catch

Einleitung

Ball catches are commonly found on top of closet doors and French doors. However, they are hard to see since they are located on top of the door. If your closet door is not flush with the door frame or keeps coming loose when shut, chances are the ball catch has become loose and needs to be replaced.

It is easy to replace a ball catch on top of the door. It takes less than 10 minutes and only requires a cordless drill or a Phillips head screwdriver. Once you replace the ball catch, your closet doors will close securely.

This guide will show you how to replace the ball catch in six easy steps.
