A hinge mounted assembly for existing door constructions for supporting articles between a door and a door jamb in a door construction that has upper and lower hinges; including a first U shaped bracket mounted above one of the hinges to prevent downward movement of the hinge mounted assembly, and a second U shaped bracket mounted below one of the hinges to prevent upward movement of the hinge mounted assembly, and a vertically running support rod connected to the two brackets, such that it abuts closely against the protruding portion of both hinges on the back side of the door, to prevent lateral movement of the hinge mounted assembly.

The invention relates to a hinge-sided finger protection device for a wing door, comprising at least a protective profile (1) and at least a fastening means (3) for fastening the protective profile (1) to a door frame (R) of the wing door. The protective profile (1) can be plugged onto the fastening means (3), wherein the protective profile (1) accommodates in itself the fastening means (3) in the plugged-on state. The protective profile (1) is non-destructively removable from the fastening means (3) and can be again plugged thereon. The at least one fastening means is preferably a clip (3).

An apparatus for enhancing the privacy of common privacy enclosures is presented. Two primary embodiments are disclosed. The first embodiment can be used in pre-existing enclosures. The second embodiment is designed where the privacy enhancing screen is incorporated directly into the privacy enclosure's door hinge.

A door or window assembly includes an opening bounded by a frame including a hinge jamb (12). A panel (18) is hung relative to the hinge jamb via a hinge arrangement (20) so as to swing between an open position and a closed position. An engagement configuration includes a ledge (22) located in fixed relation to the hinge jamb, and a flange (24) rigidly associated with the panel. The engagement configuration allows me panel to swing freely between open and closed positions. in the closed position, the flange (24) is brought into facing relation with the ledge (22) such that force directed to displace the panel (18) within the plane of closure away from the hinge jamb (12) acts to bring the flange into engagement with the ledge.

A finger protection device (5) with a roller blind for a leaf door has a housing (2), a first fastening means (4) and a web (1), wherein the roller blind can be fastened to a door frame (R) and to a dour leaf (F) of the leaf door by means of the housing (2) and the first fastening means (4), with the result that, when the device is used as intended, the web (1) covers a gap between the door leaf (F) and the door frame (R). The web (1) has at its free edge an end strip (11) which is held in a second fastening means (3). The second fastening means (3) can be connected to the first fastening means (4) in order to tension the web (1) between the housing (2) and first fastening means (4) The second fastening means (3) is a suspension unit which can be suspended in the first fastening means (4) in order to tension the web (1). The finger protection device according to the invention is of robust design, consists of the simplest means and nevertheless allows optimum protection against manipulation and a maximum degree of readjustability.

A system, including: a doorframe, having: first and second side jambs, and a head jamb; a door; a door hinge that connects the first side jamb to the door; a guard, including: a plurality of body portions, including a first body portion, a second body portion, a third body portion, a fourth body portion, a fifth body portion, and a sixth body portion, where the first body portion connects to the second body portion, where the second body portion connects to the third body portion, where the third body portion connects to the fourth body portion, where the fourth body portion connects to the fifth body portion, and where the fifth body portion connects to the sixth body portion; and a plurality of magnetic strips, including a first magnetic strip and a second magnetic strip, where the first magnetic strip and the second magnetic strip are magnets, where the first magnetic strip is adhered to the first body portion and extends between top and bottom ends of the first body portion, where the second magnetic strip is adhered to the sixth body portion and extends between top and bottom ends of the sixth body portion, where the first magnetic strip is magnetically coupled to the door, and where the second magnetic strip is magnetically coupled to the first side jamb.

A hinge-side finger protection device for a leaf door includes a protective profile attachable to the leaf door by clamping between two door hinges or between a door hinge and a stop device. An adapter part is further present having an end face of which the position relative to the protective profile is changeable in the longitudinal direction in order to enable the protective profile to be inserted and clamped between the door hinges or between the one door hinge and the stop device. The adapter part is insertable into the protective profile. The end face of the adapter part is arranged on a side of the adapter part opposite the protective profile when the adapter part is inserted in the protective profile. The hinge-side finger protection device enables quick and easy installation on a door and can be used with a different door hinges.
