The Gator Magnetics MIDI 2.5" Closed Magnetic Hook delivers up to 25 lbs of shear holding power in a compact footprint. Designed for tight storage areas and steel surfaces where space is limited, this industrial-strength magnetic hook provides secure hanging for tools and gear without requiring permanent installation. Ideal for garages, pole barns, workshops, sheds, shipping containers, toolboxes, trailers, and work vans, it’s a flexible alternative to pegboard and slat wall storage systems.
Dimensions: 5.91”H x 2.01”W x 2.5”D
The 2.5" MIDI Closed Hook provides a 25 lb rated shear strength in a shorter profile that works well in tighter storage layouts. The enclosed hook design helps keep items securely contained, making it ideal for steel cabinets, narrow wall sections, trailer interiors, and areas where secure retention is important.
Ideal for:
Improve pole barn storage by adding hooks directly to steel barn walls without drilling into the steel panels. No screws. No anchors. No permanent holes.
Lift the patented Easy-Off™ lever, place the hook on the steel surface, and lock it into position. Reposition anytime as your layout changes.
Peg board systems and slat wall panels require installation and hardware. The 2.5" MIDI Closed Magnetic Hook installs instantly on compatible steel surfaces and moves wherever you need it.
Designed for use on steel surfaces such as:
The 2.5" depth makes this hook ideal for tighter areas where keeping stored items closer to the wall is important. Get heavy-duty storage without sacrificing usable space.
The closed hook design helps prevent items from slipping off, making it ideal for tools, cords, and gear that need extra security during storage or transport.
Lift the lever, place the hook on a flat steel surface, and lock it down. Reposition easily without tools.
The 2.5" MIDI Closed Magnetic Hook is engineered for flat, ferrous steel surfaces commonly found in garages, workshops, sheds, pole barns, tool chests, and shipping containers. (Magnets only work on steel.)
For best performance:
When we say “Holds up to 25 lbs,” we mean it. Gator Magnetics measures shear force - the downward pull of real hanging weight - not pull force like most magnetic hook brands.
Other brands test using thick, 1.5-inch steel plates. We test on 16 gauge galvanized steel - the same type commonly found in garages, sheds, pole barns, and steel storage systems. The result: reliable performance in real-world conditions.
Gator Magnetics products are tested on 16 gauge galvanized steel for consistent results. While steel thickness and coatings vary, our team can help confirm compatibility for your setup.
