Ives IVE-WS11-US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What's the difference between the Ives WS11 and WS11X wall stop?

Same stop, different fastener pack. The WS11 ships with fasteners for drywall and wood surfaces; the WS11X ships with heavy-duty masonry fasteners. Pick by what's behind the wall at the strike point, not by the door. Both share the brass body, the replaceable black rubber bumper, and the same six finishes.

2) How far off the wall does the Ives WS11 wall stop hold the door?

The WS11 measures 3-3/4 inches in length with a 2 inch diameter, so the door face stops roughly that distance off the finished wall. That's the number to check against your lever or panic device projection: if the trim sticks out farther than the stop, the trim hits the wall first and the stop does nothing. Measure from the wall to the outermost point of the door hardware before you commit.

3) Will a wall stop hold up on drywall, or do I need blocking?

On drywall the WS11 version comes with drywall and wood fasteners, and it holds best when the fastener catches a stud or solid blocking behind the board. Where there's block or concrete instead, order the WS11X, which comes with heavy-duty masonry fasteners. The hexagon section on the body gives you a wrench flat to hold while fastening, which is what you need when you're setting expansion shields in masonry.

4) Does the Ives WS11 wall stop meet ANSI/BHMA for a commercial spec?

It's built to ANSI/BHMA 156.16, function L12011, and is classified as commercial, heavy duty. That's the line to put on a submittal for schools, healthcare, and government work where the door hardware schedule calls out a BHMA-compliant wall stop.

5) What else could I buy instead of the Ives WS11 wall bumper?

Closest in kind is the Emtek 2255 brass wall bumper with a regular rosette, another brass wall-mounted bumper if you want a different look on the rosette. For a shallower projection, the Delaney 2-1/4 inch concave wall bumper sits closer to the wall than the WS11's 3-3/4 inch length. If you need the stop to reach further than 3-3/4 inches because the door swings past a base or a piece of trim, the ABH RM and RMS Series wall stops come in multiple length options.

6) What is the closest equivalent to the Ives WS11 wall stop from another brand?

The Emtek 2255 is the nearest match in construction and mounting style. Both are brass wall bumpers that mount to the wall and take the door on a rubber bumper face; the Emtek 2255 comes with a regular rosette, while the Ives WS11 uses a 3-3/4 inch long, 2 inch diameter body with a hexagon section that aids fastening when expansion shields are used. The Ives unit carries ANSI/BHMA 156.16, L12011, which is the reference an institutional spec is usually written to, and it ships in two fastener versions - WS11 with drywall and wood fasteners, WS11X with masonry fasteners.

7) The wall behind the door is out of reach of the door swing - what should be used instead of a wall stop?

When the door does not reach a wall, a floor or baseboard mounted stop does the work instead. The Delaney 3 inch HD rigid door stop and the Delaney 3 inch spring door stop both fit that situation - the rigid version is fixed, the spring version flexes on contact. Neither is a substitute for the Ives WS11, which is a wall mounted stop and depends on solid drywall, wood, or masonry directly behind the strike point.

8) The lever is punching a hole in the drywall well past where a standard wall stop reaches - what handles that?

That is a projection problem, and it is answered by a longer body rather than a different type. The ABH RM Series and ABH RMS Series wall door stops are both offered with multiple length options, so the stop can be run out to meet the lever where it lands. The Ives WS11 body is a fixed 3-3/4 inch long by 2 inch diameter, so the wall has to sit within that reach of the door.

9) Can you replace the rubber bumper on an Ives WS11 without pulling the whole stop off the wall?

Yes. The black rubber bumper has an off-set shoulder and a threaded shank that screws into the body, so a worn or torn bumper backs out and a new one goes in with the base still fastened to the wall. For a property manager running a building full of these, that means the recurring maintenance item is a bumper, not a stop and a patched wall.

10) Should I use a wall stop or a floor stop to protect the wall behind a door?

A wall stop like the WS11 takes the impact at the door face and keeps the load off the hinges and off the floor, which is the right call in corridors where a floor stop becomes a trip hazard or a mop obstruction. It only works if the wall is actually behind the door swing and solid enough to fasten into. Where the door swings into open space with no wall in reach, a floor or hinge-mounted stop is the answer instead. ZenSupply also carries the Delaney 3 inch rigid and 3 inch spring door stops for base-mounted applications.

11) Do I need to order anything extra to install an Ives WS11 wall stop?

No separate fastener order. Each unit ships with the fasteners for its wall type, drywall and wood on the WS11 and heavy-duty masonry on the WS11X. What you specify on the order is the finish and the mounting version, and that's the whole decision. Ives publishes installation instructions for the WS11 and WS11X, so the hole layout comes with the part.

12) Can I standardize one wall stop across a building with both drywall and block walls?

Yes, and that's what the two-part numbering is for. Order the WS11 for the drywall and wood-framed openings and the WS11X for the masonry ones, in the same finish. The visible part is identical, so the corridors read the same whether the wall behind is stud or block. Six finishes carry across both versions, so a facility standard on, say, 626 satin chrome holds everywhere.

13) Is a concave wall bumper the same thing as the Ives WS11 wall stop?

They are not interchangeable. The Delaney 2-1/4 inch concave wall bumper is a shallow wall mounted cushion that catches a knob or lever face against the wall surface. The Ives WS11 projects 3-3/4 inch off the wall on a 2 inch diameter body and carries ANSI/BHMA 156.16, L12011 as a heavy duty commercial stop. On an opening where the door leaf swings past the knob line, the concave bumper will not intercept it.

14) For a high traffic commercial corridor, which wall stop holds up better - a spring stop or a rigid brass wall stop?

They fail differently. The Delaney 3 inch spring door stop absorbs the strike by flexing, which suits lighter residential doors. The Ives WS11 is a brass, heavy duty commercial stop meeting ANSI/BHMA 156.16, L12011, with a replaceable rubber bumper that threads into the body - the wear item comes off and a new bumper goes on without pulling the stop off the wall. For an office, school, or healthcare corridor where the same door gets hit all day, that replaceable bumper is what keeps the repair to a part rather than a reinstall.

15) Standardizing wall stops across a portfolio with both drywall partitions and masonry corridors - one part number or two?

Two part numbers, one product family. The Ives WS11 ships with fasteners for drywall and wood, and the WS11X ships with masonry fasteners, and both share the same 3-3/4 inch by 2 inch brass body and the same finish range - 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 625 bright chrome, and 626 satin chrome. That keeps the look identical across wall types. Where a single series with multiple lengths is wanted instead, the ABH RM Series and RMS Series wall door stops are offered with multiple length options.

16) Is a brass wall stop worth it over a cheaper one in a high-traffic corridor?

Brass is the substrate on the WS11, and it's rated heavy duty and commercial under ANSI/BHMA 156.16. In a corridor taking hundreds of door swings a day, the failure point is the rubber, not the body, and the rubber is a screw-in replaceable part here. That's the argument for it over a stamped stop: you keep the base and the finish, and you swap a bumper.

17) Pulling an old wall stop off left a hole in the drywall - is there a cover plate that goes with the new stop?

A hole plate is a separate part from the stop itself. The Delaney 2-1/8 inch hole plate metal cover is made for closing an opening left in the wall face; it does not stop a door. The Ives WS11 replaces the stopping function and mounts with the fasteners it ships with - drywall and wood fasteners on the WS11, masonry fasteners on the WS11X - so on a repair the two are ordered together rather than one in place of the other.
