Wall door bumper protector

Lady_K

Does anyone know where I can get any of these from? apparently they stick on the wall where the door handle hits it and cushions the banging so stops wall damage. I don't want a door stop as its not suitable for this area

One screw thro the middle & screw it to the FLOOR not the wall.
Position it so that the door knob does not it the wall.....
You can buy then in your local DIY sheds

This is for a small downstairs loo and having even a doorstop sticking out as far as it will need to go or screwed into the floor will be a problem. The door really has to go back as far as it can to allow as much room as possible to get in and out too so the wall protector will be the best in this situation.

Yes I agree stopper to the wall would not look nice and really I need as flat as possible wall protector

You can still use the rubber door stop on the floor !!!
Get a piece of wood ( or a pad of paper ) about 5 mm thick, open the door & put the 5 mm pad between the door knob & the wall.
Get somebody to hold the door to the wall then screw the rubber door stop to the floor, tight to the door.
That way the door will open to its maximum without the knob hitting the wall.

The Spanish have a novel solution to this problem, they have a recess in the wall plaster for the door handle to go in to.

This allows maximum opening in tight spaces, a rubber insert in the recess stops the door handle from doing any damage.

I really don't want anything on the floor in this tight space due to disability problems

Something like these are in America http://www.lowes.com/pd_46542-76018-SCU+9243_4294856679_4294937087_?productId=3033948&Ns=p_product_prd_lis_ord_nbr|0||p_product_quantity_sold|1&pl=1&currentURL=%2Fpl_Door%2BBumpers%2Band%2BStops_4294856679_4294937087_%3FNs%3Dp_product_prd_lis_ord_nbr%7C0%7C%7Cp_product_quantity_sold%7C1
