Closing a Double Door
(GUEST SUBMISSION!)
By: Michael Humphrey

This is a great way to close your front door, especially if it's a double like mine. Tie one end of a string around the outside handle of the inside storm door. Personally, I use a shoe lace for sting. Attach the other end of the string to the inside of the second door. Make sure not to attach it to the outside of that door or you'll be doing the limbo to get through your doorway! As you are leaving the house, use the string to pull the first door shut. Once you are through and the second door shuts, the string will be out of sight!
