I have some household equipment (VCR, CD player, laptop) with those push-open,

the only sources I've turned up either only sell by large lots or only have
large house/cabinent door-size ones.

Where I live they are called touch latches . You might ask for that name
and have better luck .

Of course, one question is who made the various objects? VCR,
CD player, and laptop all *could* be made by the same manufacturer, in
which case, it may be a part only made by that maker, and not sold as a
generic part.

Good Luck,
