Don-Jo 1522-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How do I pick the right Don-Jo 1520 floor holder for my door-to-floor gap?
Measure the clearance from the bottom of the door to the finished floor, then pick the model that brackets it. The 1520 covers 1/2 inch or less, the 1521 covers 9/16 to 1-1/16 inch, the 1522 covers 1-1/8 to 1-9/16 inch, and the 1523 covers 1-5/8 to 2-1/16 inch. Get this wrong and the holder either won't reach the door bottom or will drag on it.
2) What mounting screws come with the Don-Jo 1520, and will they work on concrete?
Each unit ships with a full fastener kit: 3 of 1/4-20 x 3/4 inch machine screws, 3 of 1/4 x 1-1/4 inch sheet metal screws, 4 of #12-24 x 1 inch machine screws, 4 of #12 x 1 inch sheet metal screws, and 3 lead expansion shields. The lead shields are what let you anchor into concrete or masonry floors; the sheet metal screws handle wood subfloors. Nothing extra to order.
3) Does the Don-Jo 1520 meet a commercial spec for an office or school job?
It's built to ANSI L11301 and rated for commercial use, which is the line item a spec writer looks for on a floor-mounted holder in office, school, healthcare, and government work. Cast brass construction rather than a stamped or zinc body.
4) I only need to stop the door, not hold it open - what should I use instead of the Don-Jo 1520?
If hold-open is not wanted, a plain floor stop is the simpler choice. The Orca Hardware 23LP dome floor stop is listed with a product function of door stop and a low rise profile with a gray tip, and the Ives FS13 and FS17 are heavy-duty brass floor dome stops with rubber bumpers - the FS13 bumper is replaceable. The Don-Jo 1520 group is built to hold the door open, with each model matched to a door-to-floor clearance band from 1/2 inch or less up to 2-1/16 inch.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Don-Jo 1520 floor door holder from another brand?
The Ives FS40 / FS41 / FS42 / FS43 automatic floor stop and holder is the nearest peer, because it is the other floor-mounted unit in the group that both stops and holds the door and is offered across a range of door-to-floor clearances rather than a single height. The Don-Jo family covers clearance in four models: 1520 for 1/2 inch or less, 1521 for 9/16 to 1-1/16 inch, 1522 for 1-1/8 to 1-9/16 inch, and 1523 for 1-5/8 to 2-1/16 inch. The Don-Jo units are cast brass in Satin Chrome 626 and meet ANSI L11301, and the Ives FS40 series is listed as heavy duty.
6) Will a Deltana UFB4505 or Emtek 2254 floor bumper do the same job as a Don-Jo 1520?
No - those are bumpers, not holders. The Deltana UFB4505 is a 1-1/2 inch round universal floor door bumper in solid brass and the Emtek 2254 is a 1-3/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch floor door bumper; both cushion the door at the end of its swing but do not latch it open. The Don-Jo 1520 is a floor door holder, 3 inches wide by 3-1/2 inches high in cast brass, made to hold the door in the open position. Related Deltana bumpers include the UFBD3505 3-1/2 inch decorative, the UFBP4505 1-5/8 inch pattern cap, and the square UFBS138 at 1-3/8 inch.
7) My door has a large gap to the floor - is there an alternative to the Don-Jo 1520 for that opening?
Within the Don-Jo family the clearance is handled by model: the 1522 covers 1-1/8 to 1-9/16 inch and the 1523 covers 1-5/8 to 2-1/16 inch, so order by measured gap rather than adapting the 1520, which suits 1/2 inch or less. If you want a taller reach from another brand, the Orca 22HD goose neck floor stop is a door holder listed for 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Emtek 2253 goose style and Delaney gooseneck floor stop use the same raised neck approach to reach the door face above a large floor gap.
8) How much floor space does the Don-Jo 1520 take up?
The 1520 measures 3 inches wide by 3-1/2 inches high, so it's a compact footprint that sits inside the door swing without becoming a walking hazard in a corridor. Cast brass body, Satin Chrome 626 finish.
9) Will the Satin Chrome 1520 match the rest of my door hardware?
Satin Chrome is the 626 finish, the standard commercial satin chrome you'll already have on levers, closers, and exit device trim across most office and institutional buildings. If your building is standardized on 626, this drops in visually without a mismatch.
10) What are my alternatives to the Don-Jo 1520 if I need an adjustable-clearance floor holder?
The Ives FS40 / FS41 / FS42 / FS43 automatic floor stop and holder is the heavy duty option built around adjustable door-to-floor clearance, so it's the one to look at if your gaps vary across the building instead of buying four different Don-Jo models. If you want a hold-open without touching the floor at all, the SOSS MDH is a magnetic door holder and stop at 3-5/16 by 1-3/4 inches.
11) Is there a hold-open option that does not mount into the floor like the Don-Jo 1520?
The SOSS MDH magnetic door holder and stop, 3-5/16 inch by 1-3/4 inch and listed as heavy duty, holds the door with a magnet and releases on a pull rather than using a mechanical foot-operated catch. The Don-Jo 1520 is a floor-mounted holder and ships with machine screws, sheet metal screws and lead expansion shields so it can be anchored into wood, metal or concrete floors.
12) Which floor stop should I use in a dorm or detention area instead of the Don-Jo 1520 holder?
For openings where a low, tamper-resistant profile matters, the Ives FS18S/FS18L security floor stop is the peer written for that use and is listed as heavy duty. The Don-Jo 1520 is a hold-open device for commercial doors, cast brass in Satin Chrome 626 and meeting ANSI L11301, so it is the choice when the door needs to stay open rather than simply be stopped.
13) Are the Sure-Loc and Delaney floor stops interchangeable with the Don-Jo 1520?
They serve a different purpose. The Sure-Loc DS-FL1 is a floor stop with a spring and the DS-FL2 is a cylindrical floor stop described for residential doors, and the Delaney 40260X is a dome stop - all of them arrest the door rather than hold it open. The Don-Jo 1520 is specified for commercial use and is a floor door holder offered in four door-to-floor clearance models from 1/2 inch or less through 2-1/16 inch.
14) I need something for a residential door, is the Don-Jo 1520 overkill?
Probably, yes. The 1520 is a commercial-grade cast brass hold-open with masonry anchors in the box. For a house or a light-duty interior door, a Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop or a Delaney dome stop is the more appropriate part.
15) How many Don-Jo 1520 holders come in a pack?
Sold as a shelf pack of 1, so you order one per door and can buy exact counts for a single opening or a whole floor of them without overbuying.
16) I want a low-profile floor unit rather than the Don-Jo 1520 - what are the options?
The Emtek 2251 half dome door stop and the Emtek 2257 1-1/2 inch cylindrical floor bumper sit close to the floor, as does the Orca 23LP dome floor stop, which is listed as low rise. The Don-Jo 1520 stands 3-1/2 inches high by 3 inches wide in cast brass, which is what gives it the reach to catch and hold the door open.
