How it Works: The Wedge-It is designed to hold an interior or exterior door open to a 90 degree angle. It can be placed in any of 3 locations on a door:
Locations on the Door:
Top of the Door: With door open to a 90 degree angle place the Wedge-It on top of the door between door and door jamb. The Wedge-It is designed with 4 different settings to fit between the top of the door and the door jamb (see below). This is because that distance varies between doors.
Over the Hinge Pin: With door open to a 90 degree angle place the Wedge-It over hinge between the door and the door jamb.
On the Floor: The Wedge-It can be used rubber pad side down on the floor like a traditional wooden or rubber door stop.
Bottom of Doors with Larger Gap: If the gap at the bottom of the door is greater than 2 inches, placement of the Wedge-It in a vertical position could / would hold the door open. *Placement and success of the Wedge-It doorstop is dependent upon the door.
Holding a Door Open at any Angle: One Wedge-It can be placed at the end of the door or 2 Wedge-Its can be placed on either side of the door to keep it open at varying angles. *This placement and success of the Wedge-It is dependent upon the door.
