don't forget your doorstops, bumpers, transom chains

Just thought I'd remind you about checking for doorstop, bumper, and transom chain needs. Once cabinets and doors were in place, I realized just how many places I have where my doors or knobs will end up bumping into neighboring things and making marks or dents.

A transom chain gets installed in a cabinet and even though I've got some spacers, there are places where I don't want a cabinet door to swing past a certain point. (I did learn about hinges for the opposite case, when I want a door to swing open wider)

Some of my new doors, knobs or handles could bump into neighboring door trims and walls so we've walked around to figure out whether we want dome bumpers, wall-mounted door stops.

Just thought I'd mention it because we turned out to need a lot of these.
