14 years ago I would have suggested gluing a peice of carpet the the bottom of the door for hidden friction to the floor.

Can't say that I've seen one, and a bent hinge pin is just asking for trouble. At one time we had hinge "brakes" that the hinge pin went through before going into the hinge. They were adjustable from totally free movement to holding whatever position you left the door in, or slowly alowing the door to close on its own. Can't say I recall where we got them, as it's been over 20 years ago, but they do exist. Use a bolt instead of the pin and tighten it up to taste. .... or just smack the barrels with a hammer. |
