Door Angel
Door Angel is a fairly small device that will attach to the top inner corner of any hinged door and close the door automatically so you won't need to remember to. This device can be used on both interior and exterior doors, and will keep pests out along with keeping children or pets inside the home when necessary. Once you've installed the device, which most users are able to do in just a few minutes, it'll start working immediately.

How to Use (Step by Step)
- Install Device
Follow the instructions included with your Door Angel to attach it to the top inner corner of a door of your choice. You'll only need to work with three different screws in order to do so.
- Open Door
When you need to open the door you've attached this device to, simply do so and walk through it as usual. Within seconds, you'll notice that the device has closed the door behind you without you lifting a finger to complete the closure.
Features
- Versatile
You can use this device on a variety of different doors, regardless of height or width, as long as each door has a hinge. If you attach the device to your front door and decide you'd rather have it on your back door instead, that's no problem, as it can be moved in minutes.
- Discreet
The Door Angel is mainly white with small black and gray attachments, so it'll blend in with the inner or outer decor of most homes. It''ll only extend a few inches across the top of a standard-sized door and hang down a few inches, so it's not big enough to be an eyesore. Unless you tell neighbors or guests that you have one, they likely won't realize that you do.
- Doesn't Require Electricity
You won't need to plug this device in when you want to use it, so there'll never be any annoying electrical cords involved with its use.
Positive Points
- Increases Safety
Accidentally leaving your doors open increases the chance that an intruder, not to mention pesky outdoor critters such as bugs and snakes, will enter your home through one of them. Fortunately, when you use the Door Angel, you won't have to worry about this, as the device will make sure any door it's attached to closes properly each time it's opened.
- Preserves Ideal Temperature
When you accidentally leave your exterior doors open, often heat will escape out of your home in the winter and cool air will escape from it in the summer. In those cases, you're basically paying to heat or cool the outside. However, Door Angel will prevent this problem from occurring, too, and help preserve the temperature you desire inside your dwelling.
- Blocks Off Certain Areas
There may be certain areas of your house or apartment that you don't want kids or pets to enter, such as a closet full of valuables or the laundry area. This device will help you block them off more effectively than you'd be able to otherwise. When you enter one of these areas, it'll cause the door to close automatically behind you, so no little feet can simply wander through the opening.
Negative Points
- Doesn't Lock Door
Although the Door Angel will close virtually any door without any help from you, it won't lock doors. If you want a certain door locked, you'll need to remember to do it yourself.
- Need to Reach up High
In order to install this device, you'll need to be able to reach the top of the door you want to attach it to. This could pose a problem for shorter people, who will need to obtain a footstool, chair, or small ladder and climb in order to reach that height.
- May Close Door Too Quickly
When you want to keep a door open in order to carry items through it, or let through a bunch of people, you may find that your Door Angel closes the door too quickly. Of course, you could temporarily uninstall the device or hold the door open, but that could be inconvenient.
Alternatives
- Automatic Sliding Doors
You could install doors that open and close automatically within your home, but the installation process is normally more complicated than that involved with Door Angel. Plus, this type of door will often malfunction and / or jam, potentially leaving you stuck inside or outside your house for at least a few minutes.
Save Time
Once you've attached a Door Angel to each door that you feel should have one, you won't need to walk around checking if certain doors are closed before you exit the house. Instead, you can rest assured that each attached device has closed any corresponding door that has been left open.
Save Money
If you decide to use this device, you may not feel the need to invest in any automatic doors or any complex home security systems that require programming and maintenance. You also won't be letting warmth from your heater or coolness from your air conditioner out into the outdoors, so your bills for these services may be lower.
Critical Advice
Once this device has been installed on any door, do not put your fingers inside it, and instruct others not to do so, too, as it could pinch and hurt the skin.
