WEDGE FOR KEEPING AN APPLIANCE ACCESS DOOR OPEN
A wedge for keeping an appliance access door open to air dry at selectable minimum angles. The wedge attaches through a magnetic connection to any portion of the threshold of the access door for controlling the minimum angle. The wedge has a low profile so that the wedge does not protrude from the threshold.
Doorjamb safety system and method
A doorjamb safety system, device and method for utilization in holding open a door, and preferably an automatically closing door. The system can include a handle unit, a wedge unit slidably associated with handle unit, and a chock unit attachable with the handle unit and slidably associated with the edge unit. The chock unit includes a triangularly shaped chock and a shaft including multiple locking holes. The wedge unit includes a button that is engageable with the locking holes to lock the chock in a space apart relation with wedge sides of the wedge unit. The chock unit is rotatable allowing for insertion into a doorjamb, while the spacing between the chock and the wedge sides is adjustable to clamp a corner of a door frame and a door therebetween. The handle unit can include an electronic device such as a light.

DOOR POSITIONING DEVICE
A door positioning device includes a door engaging portion including a door channel that receives a door upper edge. The device also includes a frame engaging portion including a frame channel adapted to receive an associated door frame. A connecting portion extends between and interconnects the door engaging portion and the frame engaging portion. The connecting portion maintains a fixed distance between the door engaging portion and the frame engaging portion. The fixed distance can be adjustable. A method of positioning a door relative to a frame includes placing a door engaging portion of a door positioning device on an upper edge of the door and positioning the door such that a select gap is defined. The device is slid on the upper edge of the door toward the outer edge of the door such that a frame channel of the frame engaging portion receives a portion of the frame.
