How A Simple Door Stop Can Save Your Walls

Brian shares a simple yet profound solution: the humble door stop.

We've all been there. That sudden, jarring thump as a door swings open with too much gusto, leaving an unwelcome dent in your pristine wall. Brian shares a simple yet profound solution: the humble door stop.

A door stop, in its basic form, is a small device designed to prevent a door from swinging open too far. By strategically placing it, you create a buffer, protecting your walls from those inevitable collisions.

Brian’s tip is to install the door stop directly onto the door itself, because that way we're not gonna trip over it. While some prefer installing door stops on the baseboard, mounting it on the door minimizes tripping hazards.

The installation process is straightforward. Once you’ve decided on your exact positioning, you can screw the door stop into the door with your hand and finish the job by tightening with a crescent wrench for a secure fit. 

Simple? Yes, but this is a reminder that even the smallest home improvements can make a significant difference. Don't underestimate the power of a simple door stop. It can protect your walls. Ron has many tips to consider if you’re dealing with fixing a hole in the wall
