Silicone caulk is the perfect weatherproof buffer when a door is clanging against the door frame. You don't put it on the joints/hinges. Those aren't what is making noise. What's making noise is the edge of the door (where the doorknob/handle is) clanging against the frame. So you create a rubbery buffer by adding a thin line of caulk from top to bottom of the door near the outer edge.
Then, when the door automatically slams shut, it will make a "FOOF" sound instead of a "KERBLAM" sound.

Must confess I have never been a house wife, but I know how to do housework and can boil water, also, I know where caulk goes, and it is not between moving surfaces.
