What do you guys use to keep your surface mounted bathroom medicine cabinet doors from opening during transport?

Thanks I was looking more along the lines of a child proof strap type lock as the current magnet one is molded into the plastic frame and works fine. Just want to keep things solid during the drive
 
I don’t know if these would work, but I added one to my outdoor kitchen refrigerator to keep the door shut while traveling. https://a.co/d/5QFz9P0

Depending on the doors, location etc. we use various things. All our doors work just fine but our fabulous highways can throw anything open in the RV. Side by side upper doors we just use a wooden kitchen spoon wrapped in a dish towel through the two handles. Multiple drawers on top of each other we just run a bungee cord between them to hold them. We don't have doors and drawers come open at all.
 
On our trailer there's a pantry that just fits in-between the 2 slides. When the slides are in, you cannot see the doors even if they are open. I realized this the hard way when running out a slide and ripping the door off. Fortunately, it only pulled the screws out from the hinges and was easy to fix. After that I affixed a velcro strap the one door handle and strap the other handle with it when traveling.
 
Here are photos of what I installed
