What kind of door stop




















It's still working after almost 4 years of living here. BTW, our walls are coated with the orange peel texture. The door stops haven't so much as moved or came unglued even in our high humidity climate. The plus is that no one even notices that they are there. Here is a link that might be useful: Door stops we use.

The first is that you may not be able to adjust them the way you were hoping to. If you look at the picture I posted above, you can see how the top part fits on the bottom part. In order to do this, the zig zags have to line up. You may find that in one position the door still hits the wall, but when you move to the next position the door does not open as far as you hoped it would.

This is mainly a problem if the wall next to the hinges is small and you find you cannot adjust it such that the door opens a full 90 degrees. The second problem has to do with the distance between the hinges and the door frame. You may find that the top piece will not slide over the bottom piece because it hits the door frame. My husband solved this problem by chiseling a piece out of the door frame. So, the product works, but I would suggest you first watch the video at their website so you understand how these work.

You might also want to order just one and try it out in your situation before ordering a number of them. These comments by everyone were very helpful. We are going to order the Door Saver for some of our doors. My hubby and I were not seeing eye to eye with ordering wall or baseboard mounted door stops.

We will likely use either the door saver or the round wall mount stops - depending on the location of the door. I didn't want unsightly "dots" all over my walls, and he didn't like the baseboard mounted ones, due to issues with vacuuming and tripping over them I have never tripped on one?? But we will try it on the entry door that is 8'. While I realize this is an ancient thread, I had to reply. Our builder installed the spring door stops that attach to the baseboards, and while I think they're an eyesore, our cat LOVES them.

He bats them with his paw just to hear the thwwwaaang! How can I replace them? I have never seen a hinge-pin doorstop that was adjusted properly so that it did anything and I'm convinced that if one were, it would be only a matter of time before it pulled the hinge off the door frame. As for the peg-style stops, I like to put them high-up on the wall on a stud, instead of on the baseboard, so they won't be as vulnerable to damage or pose a chocking hazard to children.

The bumpers that stop the doorknob from going through the wall also work well; I once had to mount a short vinyl bumper on one hollow closet door to stop the knob from the hall door from going through it. Indem Sie weiterhin auf der Website surfen bzw. Mehr erfahren. Ultimate Lighting Sale.

Both sleek and versatile, this door stop works well on heavy doors thanks to the powerful magnet inside.

The great thing about magnetic door stops is that there's really no chance of them slipping and sliding like other types of door stops.

This one is composed of two pieces: the baseplate and the actual door stop. You can fasten both to the wall or the floor, and set it up using a drill and screws or the accompanying adhesive sticker. Just keep in mind that the 3M stickies might not work well on drywall, cement, latex paint, or uneven surfaces. The only potential downside here is that it only comes in stainless steel. While this gives it added durability, it may not match perfectly with your other fixtures.

On the plus side, it can be ordered as a single door stop or as a pack of two or six. What we like: No installation, an array of colors, stackable, complimentary holders.

If you don't want to start making permanent changes to your walls, a classic rubber door stop wedge is a convenient and familiar design that works just fine. Its core function is to hold doors open, rather than shield your walls from swinging doors.

These lightweight rubber wedges are versatile and easy to move around. The fun variety of color offerings range from neutrals like gray, white, and black to bold colors like orange and red. The pack of three door stops also comes with three complimentary plastic holders so that you don't lose those little wedges.

Another noteworthy feature is the product's stackability. Each stopper is one inch tall, but you can position one on top of the other to accommodate a two-inch gap, and then fasten them together with the included clip. What we like: Both ornamental and practical, light enough to pick up, versatile color options. Door stops come in all shapes and sizes and go far beyond the typical wedge or hinge. Weighted stoppers are multi-functional since they can successfully keep your door ajar while also serving as room decor.

This one in particular stands out because of its simple but elegant design. While it has a nautical-esque vibe, the ivory and navy blue color options can really work just about anywhere. It's not too bulky or heavy either, coming in at 6. The weight and handle of this stopper make it easy to move around; however, for some, four pounds might not fit the bill.

Spring door stops can be installed on the baseboards or the wall to reduce the potential of damage to your home or business. Magnetic Doorstop: The magnetic doorstop is one of the most versatile types of door stoppers because it can be mounted on your floor or baseboard to prevent damage on your walls.

The powerful magnetic power holds the door open and prevents your doors from banging into the adjoining wall. This type of decorative door stopper is often found in a variety of finishes to add more of an aesthetic look to your home or business. Hinge Pin Doorstop: As one of the most practical types of door stoppers, the hinge pin doorstop is installed at the hinge of the door and does not require you to install any door hardware into the baseboard or adjoining wall. Known as one of the most discreet types of door stoppers, the hinge pin doorstop does serve a valuable purpose, but it is not always the most decorative type of door stopper.

Wall-Bumper Doorstop : Just like a baseboard doorstop is installed to bounce the door back a bit when swung hard, the wall-bumper doorstop serves the same purpose with a different twist. Wall-bumper doorstops are installed higher on the wall, ideally where the doorknob meets the wall to prevent damage to the wall next to your door.

Floor-Mounted Doorstop: The main purpose of a door stopper is to protect your walls from damage. The floor-mounted doorstop does just that, but it does require some space on the floor adjoining the door. Simply install this type of door stopper into the floor versus the baseboard.

Be careful, though, that the door stopper that extends vertically is not placed too far from the wall because it could serve as a tripping hazard. Hook Doorstop: Offering twice the amount of prevention as most doorstops, the hook doorstop is installed into the floor with an additional eyelet installed directly on the bottom of your door. This type of door stop is ideal for doors that you need to prop open for long periods of time. In some cases, it is also similar to the magnetic doorstop because it serves two functions.

Sliding Door Stopper: You also have options to accommodate sliding doors or pocket doors. Sliding door stoppers are typically concealed and wall mounted to reduce the shock of a sliding door closing. These types of door stoppers are also commonly used on cabinet doors.
