How to add magnets to hold a screen door with self-closer?

We had an OT (Occupational Therapist) assess our house and address issues where my wife, Julie, is struggling.

One area which we examined was screen doors with pneumatic closers - they tend to 'catch' her when she is entering/exiting.

 

The OT proposed magnetic devices (Maybe These? ) from the ceiling. On the ground they would be tripping hazards.

 

Would these magnets hold a screen door with a self-closer?

Any thoughts/suggestions welcome.

Cheers.

 

Hopefully off to Bunnings today to look.
