Deltana UFBS25 Square Universal Floor Door Bumper 2-1/2", Solid Brass

The UFBS25 is a floor-mounted bumper: it screws into the floor behind the door swing and stops the door before it reaches the wall or the adjacent fixture. At 2-1/2 inches tall it stands well above the low dome stops, so it catches the door on the face rather than at the very bottom rail, which is what you want on a heavy or glass-front door. It stops only; it does not hold the door open. If you need the door to stay put once open, look at a holder instead, such as the Ives FS40 / FS41 / FS42 / FS43 automatic floor stop and holder, or the SOSS MDH magnetic door holder and stop.

Height is 2-1/2 inches, with a 5/8 inch mount. That is a tall stop by floor-bumper standards, so the door has to clear it: measure from the finished floor to the bottom of the door in the swing path before ordering. On a door with a low undercut or a carpet transition sitting close to the slab, a low-rise dome is the safer form, like the Orca Hardware 23LP Series low rise dome floor stop.

The UFBS25 is the square, 2-1/2 inch solid brass floor bumper, and the closest peers in the same floor-mounted bumper role are round rather than square. The Emtek 2257 is a 1-1/2 inch cylindrical floor bumper, and the Emtek 2254 is a floor door bumper measuring 1-3/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch. If the design intent is a contemporary squared column standing 2-1/2 inch off the floor, the UFBS25 is the one with that profile; if a low round puck reads better with the rest of the trim, the Emtek 2254 or 2257 give you that shape.

The Deltana UFBS25 is a floor bumper - it stops the door swing and nothing more. For an opening that has to stay open, the Ives FS40 / FS41 / FS42 / FS43 is an automatic floor stop and holder with adjustable door-to-floor clearance, and the SOSS MDH is a magnetic door holder and stop measuring 3-5/16 inch by 1-3/4 inch. The Orca Hardware 22HD Series goose neck floor stop is also listed as a door holder and fits 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch doors. Specify one of those where a corridor, loading, or ventilation door has to be parked open.

The UFBS25 is a solid brass floor bumper carried as commercial door hardware. On the institutional side, Ives lists the FS13 heavy-duty brass floor dome stop with a replaceable rubber bumper and the FS17 heavy-duty brass floor dome stop with rubber bumper, both rated heavy duty. The replaceable bumper on the FS13 is the detail that matters for an MRO buyer standardizing a facility, since the wear item can be changed without pulling the base. The Ives units are dome-profile brass; the Deltana is the squared 2-1/2 inch profile.

The Deltana UFBS25 stands 2-1/2 inch tall with a 5/8 inch mount, which is deliberately the taller, bolder profile. Where floor clearance or a wheelchair path calls for something closer to the floor, the Orca Hardware 23LP Series is a low rise dome floor stop with a gray tip, and the Emtek 2254 floor door bumper is 1-3/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch. The Emtek 2251 half dome door stop is another low-profile shape. Measure from the finished floor to the point on the door face you want to catch before choosing.

Solid brass, both the material and the substrate on record. That matters on a floor stop more than on most trim, because it takes a door strike repeatedly and gets kicked and mopped around. Solid brass under a plated finish does not blister off the way a plated zinc body does when the plating chips.

Two different jobs. The square UFBS25 sits in the floor directly under the door swing, so it needs floor you are willing to drill and it needs to be placed where nobody walks. A gooseneck like the Delaney Gooseneck Floor Door Stop or the Emtek 2253 Goose Style reaches out from the base and catches the door higher up, which suits doors with a big undercut or where the stop has to sit further from the door face. In a corridor or a leasing office where a tall stop is a toe-catcher, a low dome such as the Emtek 2251 Half Dome or the Delaney Dome Door Stop is the usual call.

Commercial. Deltana classes the UFBS25 as a commercial-duty item and builds it heavy duty in solid brass, which is why it works in multi-family corridors, hospitality, and office fit-outs rather than only in a house. For openings in a high-traffic institutional setting where the stop takes constant abuse, the Ives heavy duty brass floor stops, the FS13 and FS17 dome stops, are the other direction to look.

The UFBS25 is Deltana's square, taller take on their cylindrical universal floor bumper, so it is the same family and the same finish range but a visibly different shape. Mixing the two in one line of sight will read as a mismatch. If you are replacing a run of round bumpers and want the contemporary square look, change them out as a set rather than one at a time.

No. The UFBS25 is a straight square floor bumper 2-1/2 inch tall that catches the door face. A gooseneck stop, such as the Delaney Gooseneck Floor Door Stop, the Emtek 2253 goose style door stop, or the Orca Hardware 22HD Series goose neck floor stop with black tip, curves up and over so it reaches the door at a higher point, and the Orca 22HD is listed as a door holder for 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch doors. They look interchangeable in a catalog thumbnail but they contact the door differently, so confirm the swing and the point of contact before swapping one for the other.

The Deltana UFBS25 is a standard square floor bumper in solid brass with six finishes including Oil Rubbed Bronze and Polished Chrome, intended for openings where appearance drives the pick. For a detention, behavioral health, or public restroom setting where the stop itself is a target, the Ives FS18S/FS18L security floor stop is the heavy duty unit built for that condition. Use the UFBS25 on the finished side of the building and the FS18S/FS18L where the opening is exposed.

The bumper mounts through a 5/8 inch mount at the base, so the fastener and anchor are chosen for the floor you are drilling into. In wood or wood subfloor, the standard screw goes straight in. In concrete, tile over slab, or terrazzo, drill and set an anchor sized to the screw. Confirm the substrate before the crew shows up, because that is the difference between a five-minute install and a trip back for a hammer drill.

The UFBS25 is the 2-1/2 inch size in Deltana's UFBS square floor bumper series. If a shorter profile is what the opening needs, the comparable stops run smaller: the Emtek 2254 floor door bumper is 1-3/8 by 1-1/4 inches, and the Emtek 2257 cylindrical floor bumper is 1-1/2 inches.

Individually. The unit of measure is each, and the price shown is per unit, so a door needing a stop takes one and a job with twelve openings takes twelve. Order per leaf, not per opening, if you are doing pairs of doors.

Where the squared 2-1/2 inch solid brass UFBS25 is more stop than the opening needs, the plain dome shapes cover the same job: the Delaney Dome Door Stop, the Emtek 2251 half dome door stop, and the Orca Hardware 23LP Series dome floor stop with a gray tip. A property manager replacing stops across a unit turn will find these read as the ordinary round bump on the floor, while the UFBS25 is the contemporary squared column.
