The hole for the cord can be 1/8th and the hook part works best with 3/32 shock cord.

I bought 4 of these for my tarp doors. They work great for hooking onto thin line that I bought from Dutch, both Zing It and Lash It.

These are awesome and make the doors (which I generally despise) much more manageable.
These are awesome and make the doors (which I generally despise) much more manageable. A million uses for these. Weightless and sturdy. Thanks for the amazing innovation and super fast shipping.

Versatile
I also use these to secure my side tie outs to my tarp’s triangles instead of staking them out so there’s less to trip over. Way stronger than a simple mitten hook.

Great Little Piece of Hardware
I bought 4 of these for my new tarp. 18″ of shock cord and a hook on each door flap made for a super easy and secure closure. I love not having to struggle with tieouts in the dark or from the inside!

Less stakes to carry
Because of these marvelous hooks, I don’t need to carry the 4 stakes to guy out my tarp door corners. Instead, I hook them onto the guylines attached to my perimeter tieouts. They are tied to adjustable guylines, so that they can still reach the perimeter tieouts however wide I stake out my winter tarp. Connecting and disconnecting them are quick. It helps if you pivot the hook during disconnect.

Just plain easy to use
I recently made a winter 12 tarp and was looking for a way to manage my doors. I found these and decided to give them a try. I put them on the end of some shock cord and they are wonderful. With the doors deployed they fit right onto the tieouts. When not deployed I have the two doors on each side attached to each other by attaching these to the opposite corners. Awesome, light and they do a great job.

Would Fleaz work just as well for doors?
Why would you use Door Hooks over Fleaz? To save money?

It is a matter of personal preference and how you want to set up your system. I use tarp door hooks for my set up and they work well. I do see how the fleaz would be an option as well. Maybe you could use tarp door hooks for all but one and have the flea as the adjustable entryway door??? ?
I would suggest setting up and seeing what you like if you have that availability.

These are by far the lightest way to close your tarp doors. I have these on lengths of shock cord to clip the doors shut. When I want to leave the doors open you can clip opposite doors under or over the tarp to hold them open as well. So no flapping doors!

Can these be clipped to each other like mitten hooks if I’d want to clip my doors back and to each other on the same side in fair weather?

Hey there. The best way to use this is to attached the closed end to shock cord, attach that shock cord to one of your d-rings/tieouts, and then you have multiple ways that you can attached the hook end to the shock cord (of same tieout or tieout on another corner) to either keep the doors closed or prop them open. The hook ends will NOT hook into each other.
