Review on Richelieu Hardware 67NBR Onward 3-inch Magnetic Door Stop in Brushed Nickel Finish by Ivan Brown

Revainrating 2 out of 5

C- I have better

GOOD: timely delivery BAD: metal embossing defective at the end. See image. But it's set low, and you can't tell from 5 feet. BAD: Requires 4 screws to mount, only 3 per pack. I won a lot of addons so I used one of these from my workbench. BAD: Difficult to disassemble the two pieces that attach to the door to detach the mounting plate. I did it. BAD: The magnet is small and barely holds the door. watch the video The door pushes a little towards the stop and just PULLS BACK INTO YOU! You have to push the door all the way down for the little magnet to hold it in place. It appears to have been designed to hold a larger magnet since there is daylight around this magnet. This rebound is uncomfortable. I use it on a light bedroom door to control the swing when the air conditioner turns on and sucks air so it barely works. I don't think this will work on a heavier door where you need protection from the wind, kids or pets bumping into the door.

Pros
  • furniture accessories
Cons
  • Large and bulky
