Review on Ives by Schlage 407 1/2 B10B Wall Bumper/Stop: Durable and Functional Door Protector by Karen Avery

Revainrating 2 out of 5

There are no instructions and "intuition " doesn't work

I really like doing everything by hand. I have installed similar products elsewhere in my home but this is a problem. So I patched the hole made by the door handle and let it dry well. This product comes with no instructions and yes I would normally say none are needed. However, other similar products consist of two parts: 1. The back attaches to the wall and 2. The front attaches to the bracket on the wall. First, I couldn't separate the two parts. Finally I found a screwdriver and pulled them out. It's fine as long as you don't attach it to the wall. So I used my own wall plate anchor because the one they provided was crap. I installed the anchor, then screwed the bracket to the anchor - everything is fine. When I attached the real "bumper" piece it didn't snap into place. I had to push her so hard she was pushed through my wall AGAIN! back to the bracket so it was one piece and instead of screwing it back to the wall and potentially ruining my wall again I glued it to the wall with gorilla glue instead. one, or if it's just a terrible design, but I wouldn't buy it again.

Pros
  • Flush-mounted function with sabotage protection
Cons
  • old
