Will this work to keep an exterior french door open so it cannot open or close in the wind?

Gosh, that's tricky! I'm not sure but this little guy has rubber grips so on my slippery metal door casing it holds a really heavy door open! It's inexpensive enough to give it a try!

I use these on my exterior french doors (open to the outside onto a deck) and have had NO problem with them. I have tremendous winds and the doors have never moved. Now, you might have to elevate the Wedge-It by putting something underneath it if the space between the floor & bottom of the door is large. Fortunately I did not have that problem . I just love these because they are so easy to store, insert & remove being that they are small. They take up NO room! Hope this helps.

It works pretty well. It has to be kicked under the door though pretty hard. It's not the best product, but it does work. Not sure if it will keep a door open with the wind though

In our opinion, no. We live in the country, as well as a region where when it rains or snows often the wind blows as well. This has been a bad combo on doorbells we have had in the past. With this one my husband "built" a little cover out of a plastic cola bottle. It leaves the button accessible, yet shields it somewhat to attempt to keep it dry. We bought the doorbell in January 2013, so far, so good.

Yes it should. I use mine on the side door of my house so I'm guessing the front door wouldn't be any different. I love it. If you have a screen door on your front door though, your screen door won't be able to close all the way.

It's designed for an outside door, so I would suspect it would hold up to the elements.

Yes it will as long as it is closed. When the wind blows the louvers will open, so it is possible for a bee to enter. I have thermostatic control fan mounted behind the louvers and when the fan is on nothing could enter because the fan is really strong. If I did not have the fan i could have a screen behind the louvers which would keep out insects. It seals out water and has weatherstripping on the individual louvers which seals pretty well.

That sounds like a good use for it. The lid has a latch that keeps it locked in place so wouldn't flip open if it was windy. Great idea.

It works on any door with a door frame.. But... The door is kept open by one or 2 inches when it's in its locked position. So I assume you wouldn't want to use it on your front door because you don't want that to be open.

Provided the top is completely protected from the elements it could go outside. The door only has a small magnet latch so letting it closed when windy could be an issue. Also outdoor temperature, my basement is 66 degrees in the winter and it takes 25 minutes to heat up. It's not overly powerful heating elements so it might struggle to stay hot if it's cold out.

I don't know that that is the best idea because the material is a little light. for an exterior door you might want one of the plastic door guards that you attach to the bottom of the door, hanging down.

This works by catching the door jamb. If there is a small gap in your exterior doors - it works well. We mainly use it on interior doors to keep kids out of rooms they don't need to be in without supervision. The door stays open a couple of inches, but is too tall for them to reach.

Yes, even if your door does not have a lock it will do the job. Only way to open a door with this lock on it is to either break the door or from the inside!

No, it does a good job of closing the door, but with wind it will still slam or if the wind is blowing it open it might not close all the way.

Yes, fairly well. BTW: it will withstand wind a lot better if tie it down by taking separate ropes, and running over the top. The places where you supposed to tie the ropes on, will just pull holes in it when the wind blows. The screen doors don't last very well, wind or no.

Hi I bought this blind in 8 ' x 8' size attached to outside patio french door 8' wide by 6' 8" high. Only problem is the blind won't stay tight when windy day, as the blind track has no gear, so it could not lock the blind from rolling down when you don't pull it down completely. No problem when you roll out the blind at full high and tight down at the bottom.

If you've got enough space in front of the door (that you use to hang it from), it works that same as if it was form the outside.It includes a short tube for holding it with closed door.

The plate and magnet should touch when door / gate is closed. Should work on a fence gate with some creative mounting.I would only recommend using this indoors or at least under roof - out of the direct rain.Barney

It should be fairly decent at keeping out a draft. The flap has a tight fit and catches on a magnet on the bottom. I can't speak on this 100% because our door only separates between our back entryway and kitchen.
