Product OverviewEasily solve the common problem of doors that won't stay open with this 4-PCS door hinge spring repair kit. Designed to provide reverse-acting tension, these Z-shaped springs help counteract gravity and floor slope, automatically resetting hollow core, composite, and standard solid wood doors to a stable open position—perfect for improving ventilation and accessibility in bathrooms, closets, and interior rooms.

Complete 4-Piece Repair & Upgrade Kit: Includes four identical Z-shaped hinge springs—enough to install on multiple doors or use the recommended configuration (top and middle hinges) for a standard solid wood door, ensuring balanced tension and reliable performance.
Dual-Size Compatibility for Common Hinges: Engineered to fit standard removable-pin butt hinges with both 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch radii. This wide compatibility covers most interior door hinges found in homes, apartments, and offices, simplifying your search for the right solution.
Reverse-Acting Tension to Hold Doors Open: Once installed, the spring creates a gentle reverse force that counteracts the door's weight and any floor slope, preventing automatic closing. This allows doors to remain safely open for ventilation, moving items, or accessibility.
Simple Tool-Free Installation: Designed for DIY installation. Simply remove the hinge pin, slide the spring onto the pin, and reinsert. No drilling, gluing, or permanent modification required—works with existing removable-pin hinges.
Versatile for Interior Door Types: Effective for hollow core doors, composite doors, and standard solid wood interior doors. Recommended installation: one spring on the top hinge for hollow/light doors; two springs (top and middle) for solid wood doors. Not suitable for heavy exterior or metal doors.
