Delaney 1" Convex Wall Bumper

The Delaney convex wall bumper projects 5/8 inch off the finished wall with a 1 inch base diameter. That is a shallow bumper meant to catch the back of the door face, not to hold a lever off the wall. If your door has a lever or a knob that strikes the wall first, you need a longer stem stop instead, like the ABH RM or RMS Series wall stops, which come in multiple length options.

Step up to a heavy duty wall stop. The Ives WS11 is a heavy duty wall stop with a replaceable rubber bumper for drywall and masonry, and the Ives WS33/WS33X is likewise a heavy-duty wall door stop with a replaceable rubber bumper. The replaceable bumper matters in a corridor because the strike face is the wear item. The Delaney 1 inch convex bumper is a small zinc bumper with a 5/8 inch projection, better suited to light residential and light commercial openings.

The Sure-Loc Wall Bumper Door Stop is the nearest match in kind - it is a wall bumper door stop built for residential doors, the same simple convex-style wall-mounted stop as the Delaney unit. The Emtek 2255 is a comparable wall bumper as well, built in brass with a regular rosette, where the Delaney bumper uses a zinc substrate with a 1 inch base diameter and 5/8 inch projection. Choose on substrate and finish match to the rest of the door hardware.

Use an extended-projection wall stop. The ABH RM Series and ABH RMS Series wall door stops are offered with multiple length options, so the stem length can be chosen to meet the door where it lands. The Delaney convex bumper has a fixed 5/8 inch overall projection off a 1 inch base, which only works where the wall sits directly behind the door face.

Two finishes: 613 Satin Bronze Oil-Rubbed and 626 Satin Chrome. Those are the standard BHMA finish numbers, so they will line up with 613 and 626 hinges, levers and other trim already on the opening.

On drywall you want to hit a stud or use a proper hollow-wall anchor. With only a 1 inch base there is very little surface to spread the load, so a bumper anchored into bare gypsum will pull out over time. If the target area is open drywall or masonry, the Ives WS11 and WS33 wall stops are specified for drywall and masonry applications.

For unit interior doors in a residential setting, the Delaney convex bumper works and gives you two finish choices, 613 oil-rubbed bronze and 626 satin chrome, to match existing trim. For the corridor and common-area doors in the same building, plan on a heavier stop, the Ives WS11 or WS33 with replaceable rubber bumpers, so maintenance can swap the pad rather than repatch the wall.

Not a direct one. The WS40 is an automatic wall holder with a heavy duty bumper pad, so it latches the door open rather than simply cushioning it, and it is rated light duty. If the requirement is a plain stop that lets the door swing free, stay with a bumper such as the Delaney 1 inch convex wall bumper or the Sure-Loc wall bumper door stop.

The Sure-Loc Wall Bumper Door Stop is the closest peer, a wall bumper stop built for residential doors, same job as the Delaney 1 inch convex bumper. The Emtek 2255 is the brass option if you want a decorative rosette behind it.
