Is this ok to hang on a bedroom door that gets shut every so often? Essentially is the mirrored door going to come flying open when I shut the door?

Yes, I would think the mirror door will open when hanging on the back of a door. I would suggest if you need to do this add a hook and eye to prevent the door from opening. The magnet on the door is not very strong.

The magnetic closure is very strong so the mirror would not go flying open. It takes two hands for me to open it. However, to keep the entire armoire from rattling around when the bedroom door is opened/closed, I would highly recommend securing the bottom of it to the door with a few pieces of double sided tape and/or the screw that is provided to use at the bottom of the armoire, if you were attaching it to a wall. I read this advice from other reviewers and they are very happy with the outcome. After hanging this myself, this advice makes a lot of sense! Just make sure you have clearance behind your door that allows for the depth of the armoire. It's a really great piece at this price and I'm recommending it to all my friends/fam!

It should be fine. It's got substantial weight to it and doesn't move around when you open or close the door

The cabinet did come open when all my jewelry was in it so I added a hook and eye. This works perfectly and was necessary in my case. I can't imagine not having my jewelry cabinet. I can now see all my options at a glance and don't have to dig to find a piece or earring. I use it every day!

Strong magnet shouldn't be a problem. I anchored mine at the bottom with extra strength Velcro. Love it may get a second!

I have never had a problem closing the door once the unit is hung - however you can't have it too far towards the hinge, or then it won't close. Keep the unit in the middle or towards the opening of the door and you shouldn't experience any problems.

I don't think you can hang it from a closed door, but at one point I had them attached to a pull-up bar in a doorway. The kind I had was removable and cheap, but very functional.

Correct, you cannot close the door when up. You could remove and re-attach however. Hanging upside down, I don't know, as the stability of the bar depends on downward force and getting your knees around it might jostle it and make it come lose.

It is not designed to be hung on the back of the door as the hooks are closed and would not allow the door to close. It is very strong! Mine holds heavy duvets, blankets, towels and many other things!

Hmmm.....I am pretty sure it will not help you with your door that has a tendency to slam shut.The product has a coiled spring with a bar extension coming out from it, that, as the coiled spring uncoils, the bar pushes against the door, closing it.If for whatever reason your door slams shut now, I believe that it would continue to do so, with this product attached to it.

I would not say it would be unstable. Whether or not there is any movement with the unit or the load you place in it will on,y depend upon the pace you close/slam the door. However, it just makes sense to secure either the middle or bottom of the door with one of the methods you mentioned. It will not hurt appearance. Good luck.

It's a magnet on the top of the door. I haven't had any problems with mine staying closed.

I have mine secured on a wall. It's a really nice heavy rack. I don't know if you could properly secure it on a door. It is worth trying, I love mine.

It actually detaches from it's holder that is screwed into your cabinet. So, it will be out of the way when not in use. I leave mine hanging al the time as it is clear lucite so it's not really an eye sore.

No, the over-the-door hanging does not secure to the door, however, depending on what type of door you have, it could mount to the door.

No, it does not hold the door open, you must use a doorstop or hook and eye to hold it open. It is a very adjustable unit that can slam the door shut or ease it closed depending on how you adjust it. The unit can be mounted for left, right, on door, or on jamb mounting.

I have this model door closer and it closes perfectly - complete closes, quietly and quickly, with a soft close. Ours does not keep the door open, but I do not know if it has the ability to do so.

If the mirror is heavy it will be rather hard to hang whatever method you use. I've used it to hang headboards and a mirror both of which are heavy. Once hung they were very secure. It requires a flat wall. I wouldn't say it's easy but the system works well and seems durable. Poor directions are my only complaint on the product.

It is heavy and little difficult to hang. It depends on the material of your door. The wall is the best way to hang because you have to find studs for the brackets.

Well, I have it on my closet's door and I can shut it w/o problem. However, I tried putting it on my room's door, and it cannot be closed. It depends on the kind of door too.

I suppose it would depend on how snug the door is to the frame. My doors still close just fine. The little hangers can't be more than 1/8th of an inch thick, so it would have to be a pretty snug door to cause a problem.
