Magnetic Doorstop with Catch Chrome/Nickle

The magnetic doorstop works very well - almost too well. It is strong enough to hold a solid wood door in place, if needed. I only had two issues:1) There are no instructions (would have saved me some confusion if there was a simple instruction page)2) I am using the doorstop on a cheap, basic, hollow-core bathroom door. When the two pieces meet, they make a loud SMACK! sound. I found that sound to be annoying, so I bought a pack of circular felt pads (the kind you put under chair legs), removed about 3/4 of the felt from one and glued it to the button side of the doorstop. The door still catches well but only makes a dampened "thud" sound now.Overall a great product, but it should have a small instruction sheet and possibly an optional sound dampener pad.

This product is very good, durable materials. In fact, this will probably outlive your door. Alignment prior to drilling holes is crucial, so spend an extra few minutes marking before slapping the pieces in. Even if you don't get the holes perfect there is some room for error and it will still function properly. I do not reccoment using the cheap anchors they provided, the magnetic base will simply pull out of the wall (Screws and all) when you pull the door due to the fact that the magnet is very strong, and it also depends on how well the 2 pieces are aligned as to the strength of the magnetism. As long as the pieces are aligned properly and you use an alternate anchor from a hardware store you should be happy purchasing this item. I bought 4 and they all work great!

This item looks good, works very well and was fairly easy to install. It's important to line up the pieces accurately. I did that by installing the arm on the door, magnetically attaching the bumper to the arm, positioning the door in it's open position and tracing the correct position of the bumper on the wall. (I like to put the arm on the door rather than the wall because it doesn't interfere with cleaning the floor. Also, put masking tape on the approximate location of the bumper and trace on the tape - easy cleanup.)Both pieces came with their mounting plates tightly screwed into them. I stuck the tips of a needle-nose pliers into the screw holes on the mounting plates to unscrew them. Just bought two more!

Works perfectly and looks great. Solves "floating door" issues without a door stop. Installs with a Phillips-head screw driver, regular screw driver and a pair of plyers. Line everything up on the door and the wall. Use the plyers to take out the bolt and the plate on the long part. Attach the plate to the baseboard on the wall making sure that the bolt is through the plate so you can screw the long part on afterwards. Use a regular screw driver to take the back plate off the small part. Mount the plate to the door with the flat part against the door. Screw on the small part and you’re done. If you have to mount in drywall, there is an anchor included.

Looks great and holds the door firmly. It makes a loud noise as the two halves of the stop impact each other. The spring damped component converts the impact noise into a series of many impact noises, which is irritating. I took it apart and inserted a rubber O-ring to dampen the noise and rebound. That improved things. It's hard to gripe considering the price though.

Bought several due to ease of use. At first it was great. Over time, the longer piece unscrews from the wall. Some times, people are too rough it and damages the wall to the point that the screws become lose. I installed both ways, once longer piece attached to wall and another with it attached to the door. Ones easier to install than the other but the same negatives apply to both setups.

Does its job well to keep the door open. The magnet is very strong, so you definitely have to give it a good tug to shut the door, but considering that my door was constantly closing on its own, I'd rather have this do what it's supposed to do than not.

Not the easiest to install,but everything is included.once installed it works perfectly. No more doors swinging closed or open. Stays right against the wall where it needs to be. Magnet is very strong, but easily closed. Just what I wanted.
