[56] Door stopper
Author: Maximilian, Milano, Italy
The times of slamming doors during draughts are definitely over!
Maximilian from Milan (IT) shows us how to make the most convenient door stopper of all times in under two minutes:
You need two of your amazing magnets: 1x Q-20-20-10-N and 1x CSN-32 :-).
Magnet Block Q-20-20-10 held in the door bumper
First buy a typical door bumper made of vulcanized rubber, used to protect walls and furniture from a banging by hard door handles.
Position the bumper on the door handle so that the handle is still comfortable to use then insert the Block Magnet into the second loop. In this way, the magnet is held securely and cannot easily slip out of the loop.
Now open the door completely and determine the proper position for mounting the second magnet, the CSN-32.
This door stays open
From now on you can open your door comfortably and even without an additional door stopper it is practically impossible that the door can close again on it's own - unless there is a tornado :-)
Given the distance between the magnets created by the bumper, this combination of magnets is, in my opinion, perfect. I have also tried it with a CSN-40 but it was too strong for our situation. However, if your door was subjected to really strong winds, this might be a viable alternative.
