Frequently Asked Questions
What are door stops and 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.
Why are stops and holders important?
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.
What types of door stops exist?
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.
Where are they commonly used?
Stops and holders are standard in schools, hospitals, offices, and apartments, protecting high-traffic doors and preventing costly wall repairs.
How do stops compare to electromagnetic holders?
Standard stops are mechanical, while electromagnetic holders tie into fire alarm systems, automatically releasing doors during emergencies.
What materials and finishes are available?
Stops are made of brass, stainless steel, and aluminum with rubber tips. Finishes include Satin Chrome, Oil-Rubbed Bronze, and Stainless Steel.
Are stops and holders ADA compliant?
Yes, provided they don’t obstruct required clear openings or create hazards.
Are they UL listed?
Yes, fire-rated overhead and electromagnetic holders are UL-certified for code compliance.
Can door stops be retrofitted?
Yes, most mechanical stops can be added easily to existing doors without major modification.
