How many door stop types do you know？

In the hardware industry, there are many little miscellaneous items that are easily forgotten or go unnoticed, but it plays a very important role, and will have a better and better market prospect in the future, that is door stop!It is equally important to make your house run smoothly. 

 

These little buggers are important. The door stop is a very useful household tool. The main function of the door stop is to control the opening and closing angle of the door, so that the door stops in a proper position. Especially for families with children, the door stop can be placed at the closing position to effectively prevent children from getting their fingers caught when closing the door.

 

I have a mark in the wall to prove it. I have even seen holes in the walls because there were no door stops. Is it cheaper to buy a simple door stop or to replace the wall? The answer is obvious. And what are the common types of door stops?

 

Common Door stop Types

 

The hinge pin door stop

 

The hinge pin door stop is installed on the middle hinge of the door. It is important to note that this solution does not require any modifications to the doors or walls. The saver hinge pin door stop also has screws. Use the adjusting wrench to adjust the door hinge screws to make the gap between the door and the door frame in the best position.

 

Floor mounted door stops 

 

If you want to keep the walls intact, floor mounted door stops are a good choice. They are durable and reliable. If you want the floor to be tidy, wall mounted door stop is preferred. The wall-mounted door stops must be located where the door handle contacts the wall.

 

Floor mounted stops are mounted on the ceiling. Just kidding, they are obviously mounted on the floor. The styles to choose from are endless and also very stylish. Some are magnetic, where you can attach the small magnetic piece to the door so it stays propped open.

 

Spring door stop

 

The spring door stop is also one of the more common types. For most people, when someone mentions a door stop, spring loaded door stop is also mentioned a lot. The spring stop has a rubber tip which is usually installed behind the skirting door. You can obtain them with springs or solid metal sheets.

 

Which door stop is the best choice? It depends on the door type, location, purpose and environment. There are gorgeous skirting, it is best not to choose spring stop. If your floor is tiled, the floor block may not be the best choice. The reason is that it is not beautiful enough, and if it is too large, it is easy to trip. For most indoor doors, a simple spring or hinge pin stopper can solve the problem. But for heavy doors, it is best to use two hinge pin stops on the bottom and top hinges. If your house is susceptible to airflow, magnetic door stops will ensure that they will not close.
