Use a rubber band to keep the door open
If you have doors in your home that close as soon as you release the handle, you’re probably familiar with the frustration they can cause. After all, you’ll have to keep reopening them if you’re going back and forth. For instance, picture moving furniture into a room, and the door closes when you fetch each item. You’d have to set everything down, open the door again, and then pick up your items. To avoid this hassle, simply loop an elastic band over the doorknobs. This will prevent the latch from engaging, keeping the door from closing.
