Professional door slam stopper fitting - prevent doors slamming on fingers and causing that horrible crunch. Multiple solutions for different door types.
### Slammed Doors, Trapped Fingers
Doors slam. Children's fingers are in the way. **The result is screaming, possible broken bones, and a trip to A&E.** Slam stoppers prevent the rapid closure that causes injury.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** The closing edge (handle side) is where slam injuries happen. The hinge side is where crushing injuries happen. Both need protection.

Frequently Asked Questions about Door slam stopper fitting in Newton Abbot
How do slam stoppers work?
Various types: foam wedges prevent full closure, soft-close mechanisms slow the door, or cushioned stops absorb impact. All prevent the rapid slam that traps fingers.
Which type is best?
Depends on your doors and needs. Soft-close mechanisms are most effective but cost more. Foam stops are cheap and easy. We'll recommend based on your situation.
Will they work with fire doors?
Fire doors need to close fully - foam wedges aren't suitable. Soft-close mechanisms that still allow full closure are the answer here.
What about door edge protectors?
That's the hinge side - different but related. We can fit both slam stoppers and finger guards together for complete protection.
