There's a product from GE Security called a 3005 "Roller Plunger" contact which
is probably the closest to what you have in terms of size, shape and function.
I sell them online.  So does almost every other online alarm store.  Here's a
link to the SR-3005 on my website:

If the hole in the woodwork is too shallow for the 3005 you can use the "short"
version of the same switch, called a 3008:
