Pull Down Behind The Door Ironing Boards Fit Over A Door and Fold Up For Storage

There are a few simple things to consider when you buy and install one of these.

Firstly, you want to make sure you use a door which is close to a power source. This may sound like a no-brainer but with a traditional portable ironing board you carry it around and place it where the plug socket is. With a door mounted ironing board you are restricted entirely by the location of the door so you'll want to use one with a power socket near by or be prepared to use an extension cord.

You also always want to attach your ironing board behind a door which can be closed and kept closed whilst you use it. An open door is not very stable and will make ironing a nuisance as it swings around on its hinges. A closed door makes a much more stable ironing location but you'll also want to make sure everyone else in the house knows not to come bursting through as well as that could prove dangerous.

Right handed or left handed? You will need to consider whether you can position yourself on the side which you are most comfortable ironing in when you fold open the ironing board. Are there any items of furniture in the way or will it obstruct a walkway or other doors? You will also need to make sure you can comfortably pull down the ironing board without bumping into furniture etc.
