I once had a similar problem near a door. We had tried to move a sofa out the door without taking the door off the hinges. The sofa pushed the doorknob into the wall resulting in this huge hole in the sheetrock. I saw in a mail-order catalog a solution for this very problem: their product was a round plastic thing that was indented inward. You install in in the wall, even with a doorknob, and it keeps the doorknob from making a place in the wall. I am not a handyman at all, but I already had the hole in the right location, so I sent for this item. I was able to install it and it looks great! If I can do it, anyone can. Sorry I don’t recall the name of the catalog. It also may be available in a hardware store or Lowe’s or Home Depot….
