Deltana DSHP916 Dome Door Stop High Profile, Solid Brass

Mounting hardware ships with each DSHP916. Each unit is packed in an individual poly bag with the hardware included, and it is sold by the each, so a case of doors means ordering one per opening. What is not in the bag is anything for the door side, this is a floor mounted bumper that the door face strikes, so nothing mounts to the door itself.

Profile height is about the gap under the door. The DSHP916 is the high profile dome, so it suits doors with more clearance to the finished floor, thick carpet, or a raised threshold, where a low stop would let the door swing right over the top of it. If the door sits tight to the floor, a low rise dome like the Orca Hardware 23LP Series is the version to look at instead. Pick the one whose height lands on the door face rather than under it.

No. The DSHP916 is a dome floor stop, which arrests the swing but does not retain the door. For hold-open, the Ives FS40, FS41, FS42 and FS43 are automatic floor stops and holders with adjustable door-to-floor clearance, the Orca Hardware 22HD Series is catalogued with a door holder function, and the SOSS MDH is a magnetic door holder and stop measuring 3-5/16 inches by 1-3/4 inches. Choose one of those where the opening has to be held back; the DSHP916 where it only has to be stopped.

The Deltana DSHP916 is a solid brass high-profile dome floor stop. The closest same-shape alternatives are the Delaney Dome Door Stop, part 40260X, which is also a dome stop, and the Emtek 2251 half dome door stop. On the commercial side, Ives offers the FS13 and FS17 heavy-duty brass floor dome stops, both of which are brass dome stops like the DSHP916. If you are matching an existing dome profile on other doors, any of these keeps the same rounded shape at the floor.

A dome stop like the DSHP916 catches the door face only where the floor stop can sit under the swing, so a long throw needs a different shape. Use a gooseneck style instead: the Orca Hardware 22HD Series goose neck floor stop with black tip, the Emtek 2253 goose style door stop, or the Delaney gooseneck floor door stop, part 40118X. The gooseneck rises off the floor on an arm and reaches up to the door rather than meeting it at the bottom rail.

Solid brass, not a plated pot metal casting. Both the material and the substrate on the DSHP916 are brass, so the finish sits on brass underneath. That is what keeps it from cracking when a door swings into it hard and what makes it a reasonable pick for exterior or wet locations where a plated zinc stop rusts out at the base.

Nine finishes: PVD Polished Brass, Polished Brass, Antique Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome, and Paint Black. If you are standardizing a building, the PVD polished brass is the one to specify for entries and high traffic corridors, since PVD holds its colour far better than a lacquered polished brass that gets kicked daily. Paint Black is the match for a black lever or a black hinge package.

Commercial. The DSHP916 is classed as a commercial door stop and it is solid brass rather than plated zinc, which is the difference that shows up after a few thousand door swings in an office corridor or a multi family hallway. For a heavier duty spec on high abuse openings, the Ives FS13 and FS17 brass floor dome stops are catalogued heavy duty, and the Ives FS18S/FS18L is the security version.

A dome floor stop like the DSHP916 mounts to the floor and is the standard answer where the door face can reach a point on the slab. If drilling the floor is off the table, the goose neck style is the alternative: it mounts to the base of the wall or the floor and reaches up to catch the door higher on the stile, which is what you want over carpet or where a floor puck is a trip hazard. The Delaney Gooseneck Floor Door Stop, the Emtek 2253 Goose Style, and the Orca 22HD Series goose neck are the ones in that shape.

They are not interchangeable in shape or footprint. The DSHP916 is a high-profile dome stop in solid brass. The Emtek 2254 floor door bumper is 1-3/8 inches by 1-1/4 inches and the Emtek 2257 is a 1-1/2 inch cylindrical floor bumper. Those are cylinder-form bumpers rather than a dome, so the strike face and the visual profile at the floor differ from the DSHP916. If you are replacing a dome and want the same look across a run of doors, stay with a dome stop rather than a cylindrical bumper.

The DSHP916 is the high-profile version of the dome shape, which sets the door farther off the stop face and is easier to see and sweep around. Where a lower rise suits the opening better, the Orca Hardware 23LP Series is a dome floor stop in a low rise with a gray tip and is listed with a door stop function. The Emtek 2251 half dome door stop is another lower dome form. Both keep the dome shape while sitting closer to the floor.

The DSHP916 is a solid brass dome stop designated for commercial use, and it comes in nine finishes including polished chrome, brushed nickel and oil rubbed bronze, which matters when the stop has to match the rest of the trim on the floor. The Ives FS13 and FS17 are heavy-duty brass floor dome stops, with the FS13 carrying a replaceable rubber bumper so the strike face can be renewed in place rather than replacing the stop. The Ives FS18S and FS18L are heavy-duty security floor stops. Decide on whether you are matching a finish package or specifying a duty level and a serviceable bumper.

The DSHP916 is a solid brass dome floor stop supplied in an individual poly bag with mounting hardware, sized for ordinary commercial door control. Where the opening calls for a stop built to resist tampering, the Ives FS18S and FS18L are heavy-duty security floor stops and are the part to specify instead. In detention, behavioral health or other secure areas, that security stop is the substitution; the DSHP916 covers standard corridors and offices.

A floor-mounted dome stop like the DSHP916 meets the door at its face near the bottom, so it serves both thicknesses in the same way. A gooseneck reaches up to the door and is specified against thickness: the Orca Hardware 22HD Series goose neck floor stop lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch and carries a door holder function. If you are running a mixed-thickness fleet and want one part number across all of it, the dome stop is the simpler standardization.

Not reliably. A dome stop is fixed by its own base screw pattern, and the DSHP916 ships with its own mounting hardware, so plan on a fresh anchor rather than picking up the old one. On a like for like swap of another dome stop the base footprint is often close enough to cover the previous hole, which is what matters cosmetically. If you are matching an existing dome across a building, the Delaney Dome Door Stop and the Emtek 2251 Half Dome are the other dome shapes worth putting side by side before you commit a fleet order.

Shape, and how the door meets it. A dome such as the Deltana DSHP916 presents a rounded crown, so the door face contacts a curved surface and the stop sheds mopping and foot traffic. A straight cylindrical bumper presents a flat top face and typically sits taller or narrower, catching the door at one point. The Emtek 2257 is a 1-1/2 inch cylindrical floor bumper and the Emtek 2254 floor door bumper measures 1-3/8 by 1-1/4 inches if you want the smaller footprint. All three do the same job, so pick on how much floor you are willing to give up and what matches the rest of the trim.

The Ives FS13 heavy-duty brass floor dome stop is supplied with a replaceable rubber bumper, so the strike face can be renewed without pulling the anchor. The Ives FS17 is also a heavy-duty brass floor dome stop with a rubber bumper. The Deltana DSHP916 is a solid brass dome stop and the choice there tends to be driven by finish match, with nine finishes from polished brass through antique nickel and paint black. On a maintenance program where tips get chewed up, the serviceable-bumper route is worth pricing against a straight replacement of the whole stop.
