I looked for a magnet just like the one my storage door has. I think Amazon or there are other vendors that sell them. @10.00. I screwed it into fiberglass and put a sealer around it. Works great.

I bought an adjustable shower rod at Lowe’s. Stick it under the door edge to the ground. It’s adjustable so if on a grade, no problem. I store it in my outdoor kitchen, which is right next to door.

I added the matching magnets mentioned above. You can buy them on Amazon. Your wall is about 1 1/2” thick so drill accordingly. They hold perfectly.

This is what I use on my 3931 door. $6.00 at Walmart. I could not bring myself to drill into the pretty paint haha.

Sorry, they are sideways.

Just to add to the mix, I ordered this magnetic catch from Amazon.
It's only $8.99 and uses 3M tape to install. Magnet is very strong.
