Magnets can attract from a distance due to their magnetic field that extends into the space surrounding the magnet. When two magnets are within each other's magnetic field, the forces between them cause them to be attracted to each other.

How far can magnets be to attract a magnet or metal?

The distance at which magnets can attract each other depends on the strength of the magnets. Generally, the attractive force decreases as the distance between two magnets increases, following an inverse square law. For small magnets, the typical attraction distance is a few inches, but for larger or stronger magnets, it can be several feet.
