Rub Tape, Rub Pad

[BlackLS2]

I always have a few cases where I am trying to prevent hardware (cabinet knobs, control arms, etc.) from damaging a surface with dents or abrasion. I have used velcro hook pads, saran wrap over clear vhb tape, rubber electrical tape, stick on and screw on bumpers, etc...each of which has a drawback of some sort (ugly, falls off, leaves hole).

I need to put something in the travel trailer to protect the wall from the medicine cabinet knob. Please share your favorite items used for such purposes...

Remove the knob?

How about a piece of packing tape to deal with abrasions?

For dents, you need to pad, reinforce or put in a stop. I tend to just use a felt chair leg pad to cushion door knobs where needed

Maybe install a stop strap or chain so it can't hit?
