Make Cheap Wall Mounted Door Handle Stops and Cabinet Bumpers With Hot Glue
If you’re tired of people throwing doors open and closets slamming, you can make some cheap wall spacers and bumpers with a little hot glue.
This video from the HouseholdHacker YouTube channel shows you several hot glue uses you might not have thought of before. Some of the tips have already been covered, such as making non-slip hangers , but you can also use hot glue to make some cheap wall-mounted door handles and cabinet bumpers so you don’t damage your home (and make it a little quieter). To make a doorknob, wall stopper, you’ll need a plastic bottle cap and some scotch tape in addition to the hot glue. Tape a large piece of tape to the wall where the doorknob would normally touch the wall, then hot glue the bottle cap to it. Once it’s there, apply a thick layer of hot glue to the top of the bottle cap to create an elastic cushion. Making cabinet bumpers even easier. Simply glue a piece of tape to the closet doors where it usually slams, and apply some hot glue to the tape.
