I need a solution to stop doors being slammed by teenage kids, whichin turn shakes the whole house.Mrs dg insists that it MUST be an ironmongery solution, and notrelated physical or surgical treatment, or sending the kids off to acare home.I've looked at the pneumatic kitchen cabinet closers, but these wouldnot seem to fit on a normal internal door, and not be strong enough inany case.I've also looked at a dictator, but these seem obtrusive and need towork with a door closer mechanism. I don't want any annoying selfclosing doorsThe sponge things to prevent younger children from trapping theirfingers are no good, as we need the doors to close.Are there any anti-slam products available for lightweight internaldoors?dg

Tell me about it...We solved it instantly by threatening to unscrew daughter'sbedroom door and removing it completely, indefinitely.Followed it through, just for one day, and then replaced it following day after much begging amd cajoling and promises of no repetition.Curiously enough, as a solution to slamming doors, it's worked an absolute treat - better than any other 'punishment' we've ever had to implement.No reason why it can't be extended to other doors - ie, you slam my kitchen door, then say bye bye to your bedroom door...David

Possibly, but if you go for the low cost church funeral you might get a token ring.
