Door guards being used to prop doors open is a common occurrence. In fact, you can tell that a door guard is used to prop doors. There is always a line on the door guard where the finish has rubbed off where the door is hitting it. And, the finish is always mangled at that spot on the guard and on the door. Not only that but the door guards are always loose and worn every time I see them in hotels. I did this all the time when I was younger. Flip the guard over, let that door rest against it to keep it from latching, and run down the hallway to get ice at the elevator and come right back. I see housekeeping staff doing this all the time in hotels. That probably explains why the door gurd is always loose and worn in hotels. Because, I have never seen a worn out chain. But the flip bar, I see them loose, worn, finish mangled, and whole bit all the time in hotels.
