Door Stops/Holders

Door stops prevent doors from hitting walls or furniture, while holders keep doors open at set positions. Unlike closers, which control door swing and latching, stops and holders protect both the door and surrounding surfaces. At National Lock Supply, we stock floor-mounted, wall-mounted, and overhead stops/holders for all applications.

They prevent impact damage to doors, frames, locks, and walls, extending the life of both the hardware and the opening. In commercial buildings, they also ensure compliance with ADA and fire safety codes when paired with electromagnetic holders.

The main types include floor stops, wall stops, hinge pin stops, and overhead holders. Magnetic holders are used in fire-rated openings, releasing when alarms are triggered.

Stops and holders are standard in schools, hospitals, offices, and apartments, protecting high-traffic doors and preventing costly wall repairs.

Standard stops are mechanical, while electromagnetic holders tie into fire alarm systems, automatically releasing doors during emergencies.

Stops are made of brass, stainless steel, and aluminum with rubber tips. Finishes include Satin Chrome, Oil-Rubbed Bronze, and Stainless Steel.
