I have a door that locks from the outside. During business hours, I need to keep it propped open so employees can enter as needed, but I don't want the door opened all the way, just enough to prevent it from closing and locking. I need a stopper that moves with the door (on a carpeted floor) when opened all the way and prevents full closure of the door. Will this do the trick or can someone suggest something else?

No it will not work as you want it to. You want to use something like this http://www.amazon.com/Children-Safety-Cartoon-Stopper-Cushion/dp/B00AUCD6ZE. Ikea has the same version but plain white (more appropriate for work). You would install this on the door knob side and it will allow the door to close almost all the way, with maybe a inch opening.

Not sure this will move with the door. Rubber on multiple sides. Perfect for keep a door open. I do use it on a carpeted floor but really wanted something to keep the door open.

Nope. Once you let the door go, it closes. If there is a setting, we don't know about it! I am real sure there is no such setting. We use it on a closet door but I can see where you would need it. Guess you'll have to put something heavy and decorative to slide over with your foot as a door stop!

I think you are looking for something guaranteed to hold the door all the way open. You may want to consider a device that can be locked in the up (open) position. I have seen hinged devices that do that.

Hi Albert, I did a little experiment with my front door. If you can close your door, but not have to twist the door knob, this will work. Simply install this into the door frame,shut the door and pull. The door did not open for me,so it should work the same for you. Hope this helps.

You have to put the stopper in the side of the door that swings. For an inward swing door you put it in the inside side (the part that does not face the outside). Viceversa if the door swings out. You can only put it on one side (the swing side no matter if out or in swing as long as it's the swing side where you put it) if not the part that touches the floor will curl under the door instead of creating a seal. You don't need and aren't supposed to put more than one on each door.

Yes, only when you are outside it can be shut all the way. No from when I'm inside, the doggy door does not allow the door to close the entire way.

No, it does not hold the door open, you must use a doorstop or hook and eye to hold it open. It is a very adjustable unit that can slam the door shut or ease it closed depending on how you adjust it. The unit can be mounted for left, right, on door, or on jamb mounting.

I used my old one over it.. it is a little long so I just tuck it in. Not a big problem... the door still closes fine. I really like this unit.

If you don't put the top down right the hasp ring wont hold the doors closed and you can open the doors with out opening the top. But for it's not a real problem to just open it a bit to get the doors open. I hope that answers your question.

It's a magnet on the top of the door. I haven't had any problems with mine staying closed.

I have it set to just reach the closed position but not to overcome the door latch and lock the door. In this case it is a soft close. If you increase the tension to close the door until it latches, it will probably accelerate somewhat due to the momentum gained while it swings shut.

Make sure that there is nothing in the way of the bolts before shutting the door and turned the handle counter clockwise after shutting and that should work. and yes the bolts should be inside when it is open for you to be able to close the door. If the bolts are out try punching in your combination for them to go back in if not you can use your safe key. To get the bolts back in.I hope that this helps.

It will not hold the door firmly in one place like a door stop. It can be set to swing the door open or swing the door closed. You can adjust how fast and hard it does this with a set screw. I use one of these hinges in the center of my junky, builder's grade pressed cardboard bathroom door and it gently swings it closed. You can use multiple hinges and set the tension higher for heavier doors or for a more forceful close. Basically, it's just a door hinge with a coil spring on the pin. There is no mechanism on the hinge itself to lock the door in one position. You are just adjusting the tension to open or close the hinge. I think it works well for it's intended purpose.

You control the closing with your foot. Nothing automatically stops it, but it doesn't slam down abruptly either. Specially if you have a little trash bag, this softens the closing.

I never noticed but I just tested it. The door will always swing back into a closed position but does not always "click" in a locked mode. If you are looking to keep it wide open from time to time this might be a nuisance. We always need it shut so it's fine for that purpose. Hope that helps :)

No There is a built-in stopper that keeps the drawer from opening too far and (maybe) falling out. You have to manually release it before you can take the drawer all the way out.

There is a catch that catches when you close the gate keeping it closed (you don't have to lock it). To lock it you need the key and you will need the key to unlock it (every time if it's locked).
