The Wedge can be used in various ways to hold a door open at a 90 degree angle: On top of the door, over the hinge pin, or on the floor. The Wedge can also be used to secure a door closed on many common floor surfaces when installed correctly.

- Over-molded with Thermal Plastic Rubber pads to prevent sliding when placed on top of door or on the floor with a smooth surfaces.

Improvements to the Wedge-It
The Wedge-It has been redesigned to incorporate a few improvements.
- Rubber is now molded on to the Polycarbonate plastic body so it will never come off.
- The strategically placed hole is now larger which makes it easier for the attachment to safety coats, vests, belt loops, trauma kits, tool boxes and countless other individual applications.
- There are now two rubber pads where the Wedge-It comes in contact with the back of the door and doorjamb when placed over the hinge. This will prevent any chipped paint or indentations on wooden doors and jambs.
In a tactical use, the wedge has been used as a "shield rest" by attaching a carabiner from your belt into the open outlet on the wedge allowing a cradle for the hand shield to rest on.
