If you’ve ever dealt with your doors slamming shut when you want to leave them open or slamming open and leaving a handle-sized hole in your wall with a simple gusty breeze, you’ve probably decided to install a magnetic door stop.
This type of door stop protects your wall from damage, but it also holds your door open if you desire. Installing a magnetic door stop only takes a little time and effort.
Things You Will Need
- Pencil
- Flat-head screwdriver
- Phillips-head screwdriver
- Power drill (optional)
Tip
If you have a wooden floor, you can mount the door stop section to the floor with the same method as the wall trim mount. Use the power drill to pre-drill screw holes after you mark the screw holes through the mounting plates, if necessary, to avoid splitting wood or to help make holes in metal doors.
