It is not recommended to hang heavy objects on doors with hinges, as this may damage the door body and hinge structure. However, it can be determined whether lightweight items can be hung based on the specific situation. The following is a breakdown explanation:
1. Affects the lifespan of door hinges
The door hinge was originally designed to withstand the weight and opening force of the door itself. If heavy objects are hung on the door, the hinge will operate under overload for a long time.
Easy to cause hinge deformation, loose screws, and even hinge breakage.
2. The door leaf may deform or sag
Long term load-bearing can cause physical deformation of the door panel, resulting in problems such as "sagging of the door leaf" or "loose closure", especially for solid wood doors or hollow wooden doors.
If the door panel is made of lightweight hollow material, it is more likely to be damaged due to additional weight.
3. The hinge screws are prone to loosening
Heavy objects increase the tension at the connection between screws, door frames, and door leaves. Over time, this can cause screws to loosen or tear the fixing holes, increasing the risk of door detachment.
4. May affect the normal opening and closing of the door
After hanging heavy objects, the door may experience "mopping" or "abnormal noise" when opened and closed.
The deviation of the door body may also damage other accessories such as door locks and door stops.
5. Excluding special door hinges and structures
If industrial grade load-bearing hinges (such as hydraulic hinges, reinforced hinges) are used and the door structure itself is sturdy and has a certain mounting capacity, caution is still needed.
Consider installing a dedicated hook plate on the back of the door, which can be supported by the wall or floor instead of relying solely on hinges.
6. It is recommended to only hang lightweight items
Such as towels, aprons, lightweight cloth bags, etc., will not cause significant pressure.
Try to use suction cup hooks or traceless adhesive hooks as much as possible, and they should be close to the side of the door hinge to reduce the leverage force on the structure.
