"Hi this is Jon on behalf of Expert Village in this video clip I will be showing you how to install a doorstop. Another common problem you see in house is holes in the wall from where the door meets the wall. There are couple quick easy cheap fixes to fix these holes in the wall the first would be a doorknob and door shield. This is a disk that you essentially tape to the wall it has a adhesives back and that would cover up that hole and it would help it protect it when the door opens . Another method is to use these door stops they are fairly easy to install however if your hole in your wall is very large these won't work. Now there are two different ways to install these you would notice that there is a hole in the center of the doorstop. You can use a molly bolt and a screw and put it to the wall that way or with this one on the back side of it there is a adhesive that would just stick to the wall. When installing it just peel off the back and position it in the correct location of where you door is going to hit. Go ahead and open your door and press it against the drywall to help set the adhesive on the wall and you are finished. Now again like I said if this hole is to large your doorstop is not going to work. "
