A door restrictor is a device that helps control how far your door opens. It stops the door from swinging open too wide and potentially hitting walls or furniture. Think of it like a brake for your door!

This means the restrictor can hold the door open at a specific angle. So, if you need to keep the door open while carrying things in or out, you can! It's super handy when your hands are full.

Adjustable friction lets you change how easily the door moves. You can make it harder or easier to open and close. If it's a windy day, you might want more friction to stop the wind from slamming the door. Or, if you have little kids, you might want less friction so they can open it safely.

They're often installed on exterior doors, like front or back doors, or on heavy interior doors. They're useful anywhere you want to control how the door swings.

Most door restrictors come with instructions, and many are designed for DIY installation. However, if you're not comfortable with tools, it's always best to ask a grown-up or a professional to help. You can also follow our video installation guide for uPVC doors here
