How does this 'attach' to the door frame? I live in an apartment and can't leave any permanent damage like nail holes.

I live in an apt as well. It attaches using a tension type rod like many shower curtains use. Definitely no permanent damage with it.

No it doesn't leave anything. It comes with self-adheasive velcro strips. We really like ours, as do our dogs.

It fits like a shower curtain rod. Just twist is to the length you want, place between the door frame and it will stick. Should not cause any damage to door frame. The velcro strips might peel pain a bit, but you can probably get away without the velcro.

It has a tension rod that adjusts that runs across the top (works like a shower curtain rod). Their is a rod holder that you can put in (comes with) that will need to be screwed in. I haven't put it in but plan on it as the tension rod slips down due to dogs and us going in and out of it. The sides are used with 3-4 velcros on each side (so they may leave marks after you take the Velcro off, I haven't tried it yet).

Note that the Velcro tabs are pretty likely to pull off door frame paint when removed (assuming they're stuck to painted wood like ours). You might consider using some sort of less aggressive tape if your landlord will be scrutinizing every inch of the place. Or you could plan to sand and repaint those spots.

I used a few skinny little nails on the top right & left corners. They could be spackled easily

It is a super easy twist length rod (kind of like a shower curtain rod) - as you twist it it it extends and the pressure of the ends holds it up. Hope that helps!

I don't know how it would work anchoring it to a actual door frame but with the correct anchors, it might work. Mine stays over the actual door 24/7/365. The actual door helps to anchor it and works rather well. You just hang it over the door and then close the door and off you go! Enjoy the workout, it's great!

In my option it is easy to remove. What I couldn't grip on to to peel with my nail, I got some tweezers. No damage left on the wall. Hope this helps!

I can't see where it would damage the door. That said, where I live right now, I am using it on a metal door. I can say there have been no indentations or anything to the door. The piece is small, but holds securely.

It has a hole for nail hook. Not a very good method of secure installation.

It's supposed to be held in place by a velcro tab that comes with the product but it didn't stay in place. No the installation doesn't leave holes in the door. It works but definitely is not pretty. Sorry it took so long to reply back to you.

Use a hammer and a big nail, or a pin punch and drift it out from the bottom. Using a hinge type door stop eventually damages the door, and the trim. Only use as a last resort. There are other options.

There are two flat hooks simular to one you would use to hang a wreath on your door but much more sturdy. No nails no drilling.

It has holes to screw into the door itself. It fits perfectly and the magnetic bottom sticks together after the dogs come in or go out. We are very satisfied. Although it wont last forever and we will order another when this one wears out.

There are grooves to slide the artificial nail on each fingertip. Although I didn't use adhesive with the nails, I don't see why it wouldn't stayif adhesive was used.

It attaches with two hangers over the top of the door. So, while not permanenty attached, it's very stable. I have never had any probem opening or closing the door (have had it both on my bedroom and closet doors). Absolutely love this huge hanging jewelry box!

There's a Plexiglas panel that slides into place and is held in with a pin. This makes it VERY secure. It's not as 100% secure as a metal door would be, but pretty close IMHO.

Excuse my ignorance but why wouldn't we just bolt to our door panels (in Hhr)? I haven't tore my side door up yet just wondering

I used liquid nails to mount the one I purchased, however it was difficult holding it in place long enough to hold it's own weight. I then used caulk to cover the edges. It has held up fine since then. Perhaps a contact cement would work and may even require less hold time although I have not personally tried that myself. I am not sure how someone would be able to mount this with a bracket. Perhaps an anchor bolt would give it something to rest on in the adhesion process? I am not sure. I hope this is helpful.

It has double-sided tape in the package -- but that usually works only for a couple of days, especially exposed to the elements. It also has two screws (and appropriate holes) for the bell button assembly--you can mount it to any wooden surface, including the door, I imagine. But it seemed more appropriate to fix it to the frame or the wall near the door.

The part that touches the door is a soft rubber-like material. It should not damage your doors.

It can be permanent or temporary, you have the option of fixing it to the door jam or just removing it at will. This is a great dog door btw.
