: I was thinking of Zuse fastners used on aircraft.

I think you're referring to Dzuz fasteners. There was some talk about them a while back, but I don't know if anyone here has actually tried them.

: Or perhaps rare earth magnets. Anyone have any ideas?

A quick search should turn up LOTS of information on those here. They're pretty commonly used for hatch hold-downs.
