does this product work for the hinge side of the door where you can pinch fingers?

If you're asking what I think you are you can place it closest to the hinge side of the door along the top. This prevents the door from having very much mobility and then fingers wouldn't be pinched by the hinges/hinge side of the door. I hope that helped.

We use it on the door knob side to keep fingers from getting smashed when my toddler tries to close/slam doors. One of the other answers was to put on the top of the door near the hinge side would probably work if you're concerned about pinching fingers on the hinge vs door knob side.

It goes on other side. Hinge side stays open some but I suppose fingers could get pinched just not as badly

I find that it feels like sponge and compresses quite a lot. In fact, after you remove the backing to reveal the sticky side, you can actually it stretch quite a fair bit, not that you would want to. If you are using it along the entire perimeter of the door, the final closing may get a little stiffer but I do prefer a tight seal. That is also assuming your 1/16" gap is uniform across. Definitely not a problem on the hinged side of the door though.

Yes, very easily. When its engaged in door slightly open position, there is about 1-4 inches of play, so kids can't open and can't crush fingers. An adult can reach up, tap the device so that it swings on hinge and disengages. Then when the adult swings the door in what would be a closing motion, the unit re-engages. You can disengage easily with one hand, allowing you to carry something in the other.

Yes - front slot is wide enough to get your fingers and hand through, turned to the side

Yes it would work on the knuckle joint just fine but not the base or hand joint. I believe they were designed for fingers but as long as the sizing was correct it would definitely work.

It's basically a pair of magnets. As long as you position them so they are together when the door is closed, and apart when opened, it will work.

I just tried it on my pinky and it's doable. I haven't tried really using it yet,but for the most part it's keeping it from bending if you're having trouble with a trigger finger. Its adjustable so it should work

I dont' fully understand your query. Since you can switch the handle, it would seem to me to work fine on any hinge orientation. Ours came with the handle set 180 degrees away from where we wished it to be. Our door has the hinges on the right looking from inside the house. So I"d say yes to your query.

You press and the door unlatches perfectly. I do not need the other hand. Yours has a problem, send it back

I believe so...the lid closes really slowly and stops when it hits an ubstruction so it doesnt really "pinch".

Yes! And it works very good. Once you use them you don't ever like using key to open door! A good deal.

It would work for not to much curved door.The material is not too soft a little bit so you can curve.

No, unless the door is slightly open. You can also open it all the way if you're worried about it. I had too much in it and the door wouldn't stay closed and noticed that there was a shadow in the corner but other than that it works fine.

That would depend on the door. The narrow edge should be able to be wedged into the crack of any door I've seen, but unless the metal is just a thin skin on a light frame, it probably does not have the length to give you enough leverage.

I would say no. When the door is in the up position it holds the door up. It takes downward pressure to lower the door and close it.

It will not hold the door firmly in one place like a door stop. It can be set to swing the door open or swing the door closed. You can adjust how fast and hard it does this with a set screw. I use one of these hinges in the center of my junky, builder's grade pressed cardboard bathroom door and it gently swings it closed. You can use multiple hinges and set the tension higher for heavier doors or for a more forceful close. Basically, it's just a door hinge with a coil spring on the pin. There is no mechanism on the hinge itself to lock the door in one position. You are just adjusting the tension to open or close the hinge. I think it works well for it's intended purpose.

Yes. It is a heavy duty pincer like mechanism. We were unsure about it at first, but really holds well. Even difficult to put on at first due to the pinching strength, challenging to open to put on door frame. But works well.
