That's not a bad idea. I have no idea what my doors are made of...well definitely wood of some sort. I'm 99% sure they are hollow. I'm not sure if that is literally hollow or if there is something in the middle. How to attach something to it? I guess I will have the same issues if I try to attach a towel rack or coat hook to the back of the door. I'm seeing references online to "hollow door anchors" and these look similar to drywall anchors. Never done this before, any advice is appreciated. I have used various types of drywall anchors a lot though, from the simple 10lb push in ones, to heavy duty toggle bolts.You can screw the doorstop into the door.
Hollow core doors have a solid wood perimeter frame. If you look at the door from the top, you will see how thick it is. Just screw the stop into the solid part. A pilot hole will make it easier.That's not a bad idea. I have no idea what my doors are made of...well definitely wood of some sort. I'm 99% sure they are hollow.
