Zuiderdam doors metal?

[Scrap Addict]

I like to put a magnet on my cabin door to make it easy to spot - do you know if the Zuiderdam doors are metal?

Don't know how much this will help, but here goes: we just returned from Volendam-to-Alaska, and the walls of our room were not metallic enough to support magnets. We had a bagful to use with our Alaska maps, and could find only a strip of metal where wall meets ceiling. This was a Neptune suite (again, don't know what - if any - difference that might make).

 

Didn't try the door.

I have not had luck with magnets on HAL cabin doors; I use 3M Command strips to stick things to the door. It comes off clean.

Do the command strips work on the walls, too? And they really come off cleanly? I find this tempting......

I join those who have never had any luck on any HAL ship using magnets in our cabin. I've tried on just about all of the ships.

Command strips work everywhere. I have not had it leave any residue on the doors or the corridor walls next to it.

 

Door decorations are a big thing on RSVP charters (there is even a completion) so I have had some experience ;)

We use the 3M command strip clips with great success. and have never had a problem with removal. Scotch magic tape also works well and we use this to post the itinerary on the inside of the closet door.

Wow, I'm glad I read this thread! I was definitely planning to take a sack of magnets to mark the door for my mom (who never could find our door on the Statendam in 2009) and to hang a big map of South America on the cabin wall next month. I will stock up on Command hangers (pricy things, arent' they!).

 

(But I wouldn't use anything else, including cling-ees as I have heard of people here on CC, using things that marked the walls and having to pay for the paint job!)
