I did a great job installing it after I figured out how to do it
5/5

In short, nbsp In most cases, you should be able to install this within two minutes if you know how to do In the absence of clear instructions on the package, here is a 30 second video that shows how it looks after installation. Once that point has been reached, it should be straightforward. I am glad to hear that you are.

This is an easy to use, affordable, and excellent program
5/5

I was looking for a door closer that would fit my needs. In one minute, I was able to "install" the program. It is affordable and very simple to use. There is no instruction on how to install the device on the packaging, but I had a good idea of how to do it from reading Amazon reviews. Slide the pin into one of the hinges of your door and raise it. That's all there is to it. I've used the closers that are attached to the walls by screws before, and while they worked fine, I hated how much work it was to install them and the damage they caused. No matter what, none of that is an issue this spring, and the results are equally good. Although it may not look as pretty as others, that's not all that much of a concern for my garage door. This purchase was 100% satisfactory to me.

It's a good idea, so why didn't I think of it earlier? I'm happy! I have solved the problem! My house is infested with critters, so the basement door must remain closed, as I want to keep my dog out of the basement where my cat lives
5/5

looked after and happy as can be. Basements tend to have armloads of stuff hauled in and out, so I have to somehow get through the door and shut it behind me immediately, even with armloads of stuff. If I'm on my way down, then I have to balance on the top rung as I go down. I think it's a miracle we've all made it through. In the last three years, I was beginning to wonder whether some kind of automatic door closing gadget might be available. To be continued only 5 dollars and change, this thing has saved both of my lives (three if you consider that if I fell down the stairs and broke my neck, the dog would most likely starve to death a few days later Let's get to the practical advice it is not easy to spread those wings wide enough, as some reviewers have pointed out. As a result, I did the following out the hinge pin completely, and spread the wings so that one were resting on the door and the other on the frame. The coil was then positioned just above the Using my heel of my hand, I pushed the coil toward the hinge, forcing the wings out even further. After the coil was directly above the hinge, I used my other hand to push the hinge pin through the coil and restore it to I used this method and it worked I can't tell you what a sense of satisfaction it gives me to walk through that door and have Initially I feared it would close too hard, but this is a very strong It's a celebration!.

3 1/2 stars is probably a more accurate rating
4/5

This is what I did to surprise them! Overall, I'm pleased ) it gets close enough for me, and it requires some force to latch thoroughly. The only issue was that there was a cardboard bumper/protector on the door, that still left a gouge. Since it is on the inside of the closet I am not that concerned, however, if you were to use this in a place where it would be visible, then be aware that it may scratch the.

Since I bought this a long time ago, this has been the best purchase I have ever made
5/5

The best thing I have purchased in a long time! My kids like to run outside to play and I kept having to close the back door for flies and bees to come inside. I was getting very stressed out! that my kids can eat, I can run outside to play and the door will automatically close behind me! What a great idea! As well, it can easily be turned off and on.

It keeps the stupid peeing cat from getting into our laundry/bath room (can't train the cat, and apparently I can't train the kids to shut the damn door Shock mats and shock collars were considered
5/5

Costing both a lot of money and time The job may or may not have been a success. My first reaction was to give this little guy a try, so I clicked on it. A b is, indeed, the correct answer! No lie, it's time to get on. Since I am a woman, I was able to install it, so you should be able to do it too. The wooden door on our house closes smoothly, even though it's an old house with old (solid) wooden doors. You'll never be able to latch the door if you just pull the knob straight up (bad since the peeing cat will use her nose to get into the room). The softer closing, however, was preferred by me because I have small children and was concerned about their fingers getting pinched. This is one of the most technologically advanced solutions to a common problem.

It is a gift from God, but it is challenging This was the most painful installation I have ever experienced
5/5

Doors with thresholds that are perpendicular to the wall are not designed for use with this. The bolt on the door of our 1940s apartment was too strong for us to push it over, snapping our fingers and breaking a small piece of the door. It took me a while to get it to install and I was almost about to give up. Afterwards, there was nothing to do but to sit back and wait. Since then, things have been going great. After owning a cat I have developed contact dermatitis, which keeps me up at Even so, I love my cat, so I used this method to keep my bedroom cat free, together with a hepa filter, and my symptoms have improved dramatically. Having said that, it takes some effort to engage the latch on my door, so a quick push is helpful. How could I have known that one small gadget might solve my cat allergy problem?.

I like how it works, but it is The program is very easy to use
4/5

The door closes almost all the way (as long as the latch doesn't get fully pushed into the door like it is supposed to) and that means no crushed fingers for us. My door fits perfectly, but the hinge pin head is significantly smaller than the hole it goes through on this product, so I had to purchase a washer for the top. Because this product attaches to the outside of the door, it's completely visible in the hallway, but it does work. I really like the way it works and the price was right.
