8. Hold a door open with a rubber band
Sometimes it is necessary to leave a door slightly open to allow air circulation or facilitate access. However, this can be a challenge if the door does not have a partial opening mechanism. This is where a clever trick using a rubber band comes into play. Simply wrap the band around the door knob and make an "X" with the intersection tight enough to hold down the latch. In this way, the door will remain open without completely obstructing the passage. This solution is especially useful when you return home with your hands full, as you can gently push the door without having to drop your belongings.
