I'd like to know how I can add something like a hinge or some other device on a door that will make it close on its own without anyone pushing/pulling it closed. The situation is this: I have a lot of people that come in and out of my room and they often don't or forget to close the door. I'm having to get up out of my seat and walk over to the door 20-50 times a day doing this and it's getting very annoying. So I'm interested in doing something to the door so that it will just swing closed on its own. I'd imagine it would require something like a very strong hinge with thick bent coil/wire that will always force the door to close when no pressure is applied to open it. I just don't know what exactly it's called or looks like. Thanks.

I have framed a small 15"w X 17"d storage closet next to a shower. It's a didn't-think-too-hard-when-building-it type of a deal. I want to have a door for the closet but I also want to maximize the width of the pull-out drawers I'm planning to put in there. So I wouldn't want to put any material in the opening that I don't absolutely need. As you see in the picture, the left side has no jamb or anything, just a continuous wall to the end of the storage area. I realize I need at least a door stop there, depending on what I end up doing. Being against an adjoining wall also creates some challenges for the door swing. Ideally it would be a left-swing door but I also have wainscoting butting against the closet and the cap trim that sticks out about 1/2". The door would have to open at least 90° to get those darn drawers out. Alternatively a right-swing door that opens about 180° would work. I'm a little lost on this one and don't know what the best thing to do is. Could I just mount a hinge directly on the right side into the 2X4 behind the drywall? As stated earlier, I don't want to squeeze the opening more than I have to so choosing a hinge that takes little space would also be nice. Making it look decent is also a bonus :) Appreciate any advice. Sorry for not having all the terminology down. [ATTACH]75158[/ATTACH]
