    How's this? Strap attaches to provided holes in the door hinges. The other end is in the 2x2 post in front of the door at the proper location to limit the door movement. These are dyed black. They come in a natural leather color.

    Yes. As I recall, the kit comes with machines screws to attach at the hinges, and 3/16-inch pop rivets to attach at the 2x2 post. For serviceability, I prefer machine screws for all. 10-32's with lock nuts on the hinges and 10-32 threads tapped into the 2x2 post.
