Over-the-door Ironing Boards?..

I took an old wash cloth and cut it in half and placed it under that hooks so they would not rub the varnish of the wood or scratch the wood. 9 years later all is good.

We had one for several years, it never seemed to bother anything. - Not sure what happened to it.

I have seen the ones that mount to the wall in a wood cabinet type thing.

Good luck.

Hi L.-

We had a cheapo one at our first house on the interior of the door to our bedroom walk-in closet for like 10 years and never had any problems with it. You may want to put it somewhere a little hidden just in case, but I never noticed any marks on the door. Good luck!

I didn't have any problems with the one I had. I had mine when I was single and had a roommate and it didn't do anything at all to our door.

I have one and have had it for about 10 years love it It hangs on my closet door in my bedroom I have had no problem with it If your door fits realy tight sand the top of the door down alittle so the door closes. wouldn't trade my for anything

L., I have had one hanging over my door for several years & my door is just fine. Wondering what they problem is they had with it.

I am 40 and have NEVER heard of anyone tearing up their doors from an over-the-door ironing board. I have owned a few myself over the years and have never, ever had a problem. The only way I could see that happening is if they were not careful OR if it was an extremely thin door OR really heavy ironing board. You need to know what your door is made of, ex: wood (hollow or solid), steel, fiberglass, etc. Then figure out about what you think the board weighs. It will make a difference in what the door is made of as to what you will want to attach it with, ex: pre-drill your holes, the right kind and size of screws. Hope it is helpful.
