Parametric Magnet Strike
This is a customizable magnet strike, you can use this to attach any size of flat round magnet to 2020 or any other size of extrusion as well as wood cabinets, etc. The base and wall thickness is customizable as well as the wall thickness on the outside of the magnet. The fastener type can be changed from counterbored to countersunk and the thread and head diameter of the fastener can also be changed.
For the fastener customization as well as clipping function I used code from Rohin Gosling's Parametric Hinge design.
Parameters

Strike Plate Thickness
Sets the thickness of the material around magnet on the strike plate. This should be a multiple of your line width.


Base Gauge
Sets the thickness of the base material


Wall Gauge
Sets the sidewall bracing thickness


Fastener Head Type
Set to Counterbored or Countersunk to customize fastener hole


Counter Sink Depth
Depth of counter sink for fastener


Fastener Thread Diameter
Diameter for the shaft of the fastener


Fastener Head Diameter
Diameter of the head of the fastener


Object Size
The width and height of the bracket, must be greater than magnet diameter


Base Depth
The depth of the base (the distance from the strike to the opposite edge of the base)


Hole Inset
Offset of faster hole from center. Add positive number to move hole closer to strike plate, with zero it is centered
