A Politeknik student has gone viral on TikTok for his creative and eco-friendly solution to an everyday problem his roommates door that wouldn't close properly.
In the video, the student humorously explains that his roommate often complains about feeling "watched" whenever the door remains open. Determined to solve the issue, he came up with an innovative DIY fix using only recycled materials.
He repurposed a nail from their locker, a piece of rope from storage, and an empty 5L water bottle to create a simple yet effective automatic door closer. Once installed, the mechanism ensures that the door shuts on its own without any effort.
The clever hack has impressed netizens, with many praising his resourcefulness and ingenuity.
This creative use of everyday materials proves that sometimes, all it takes is a little imagination to turn discarded items into practical solutions.
