Closet doors?

11 years ago

I was planning to go with slab doors instead of bifolds on the bedroom closet doors however I just realized that if I do that I will have to have those door stopper things on the baseboards on some of the walls. Is this correct or are there other otions to prevent the door knobs from going through the wall? Thank you.

There are several kinds of stop you can use... base mounted like you mentioned, a floor-mount or even one mounted to hinge.

See: http://www.handlesets.com/door-stops/c3425 to get started.

They don't cost very much.
