Pro tip: my neighbor's trick for quieting a door slam in a 1970s building
Last week I bumped into the guy from 3B in our stairwell, and he showed me the little felt pads he stuck on the inside of his door frame after the landlord in our Boston building refused to do anything about the slamming. He said it cost him $4 at the hardware store and cut the noise down enough that the folks below stopped knocking. I tried it on our front door and the bang is way softer now. It got me thinking about how much of apartment life is just small fixes we pass to each other instead of waiting on anyone official. What little cheap fixes have you picked up from a neighbor over the years?
