Door wedge install — before & after

Completed hardware and punch-list install in Pinellas County. Before-and-after proof from a real Knight Group visit.

Punch-list hardware in Pinellas County fails when someone used drywall anchors in a span that needed a stud. This door wedge install visit found structure and remounted the hardware so it stays.

A Knight Group field technician ran this visit and is the person in the process photos when those shots exist.

The composite on this page is the branded before-and-after record from the completed visit.

How the hardware and punch-list install was handled

Property managers in Pinellas County need a closeout they can show an owner. This hardware and punch-list install composite is that closeout.

  1. Locate structure

    Find framing or use an appropriate hollow-wall system rated for the load.

  2. Set fasteners

    Drive hardware level and at the height in the written scope.

  3. Load test

    Apply a reasonable pull or hang test before leaving.

  4. Patch leftovers

    Fill abandoned holes from the failed mount when they are in scope.

Why this fails in Pinellas County

Concrete block and metal studs are common in Florida. The fastener has to match the wall, not the package photo.

Door wedge installation

  • Measured gap and door swing at rest
  • Installed wedge or shim solution appropriate to flooring
  • Verified latch alignment and smooth close
