Ives IVE-WS401/402-CCV-US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an Ives WS401/402CCV wall bumper clear a lock with a push button in the knob?

That's exactly what the concave version is for. The grey rubber bumper on the WS401/402-CCV is dished rather than flat, so a projecting turn or push button on the lock seats into the cup instead of hammering against a flat face. If the knobs on your openings have no projecting button, a convex or flat wall bumper works just as well; the concave profile only earns its keep where the lock has something sticking out of it.

2) Do I need to buy separate anchors to mount Ives WS401/402CCV wall bumpers?

Fasteners for drywall and wood applications ship with each bumper, so a hollow stud bay or a wood blocked wall needs nothing extra. Masonry, CMU, or tile is the exception. Those want an anchor suited to the substrate, and you would supply that yourself. Mount into blocking or a stud wherever you can; a door swinging hard into a drywall-only anchor is what pulls stops out of walls.

3) Is the Ives WS401/402CCV rated for commercial door hardware specs?

It meets ANSI/BHMA 156.16 and carries the L12251 designation, and it is classified as commercial, heavy duty. That is the line item an architect or a spec writer looks for when a stop appears on a hardware schedule, so it can be submitted against a commercial door hardware spec without substitution paperwork.

4) Wall bumper or floor stop for a door that swings into a corridor?

A wall bumper only works when the door, at full swing, actually reaches a wall at bumper height and there is solid backing there. If the door swings into open space, past the end of a wall, or into glass, a wall bumper has nothing to strike and you want a floor stop instead. ZenSupply carries the Delaney 3 inch HD rigid door stop and the Delaney 3 inch spring door stop for those openings. The spring type flexes and is the gentler of the two; the rigid stop takes more abuse.

5) What is the closest alternative to the Ives WS401/402CCV concave wall bumper if a different brand is specified?

The Delaney 40270x is a 2-1/4 inch concave wall bumper, the same concave-face wall bumper form as the Ives WS401/402-CCV, which measures 2-1/2 inch x 3/8 inch x 1 inch. Both present a recessed rubber face so a lock with a projecting button lands in the dish rather than against a flat pad. The Ives unit is cast brass and carries ANSI/BHMA 156.16, L12251, so on a commercial opening written to a BHMA line item the Ives is the one that answers the spec directly. The Emtek 2255 is also a brass wall bumper, mounted on a regular rosette, and is another concave-free-standing choice where the finish needs to match residential-style trim.

6) The wall behind the door is not solid where the bumper would land - what should be used instead of a cast brass wall bumper?

A wall bumper only works where the strike point is backed by blocking or solid substrate; the Ives WS401/402-CCV ships with fasteners for drywall and wood applications for exactly that reason. Where the door swings past the usable wall, or the strike point falls on glass or open space, the stop has to move to the floor or the door itself: the Delaney 4021XX is a 3 inch heavy-duty rigid door stop and the Delaney 40210X is a 3 inch spring door stop, both mounted at the base rather than on the wall. The rigid version holds a fixed position; the spring version flexes on contact.

7) What should be used when the door needs to reach the wall but a small bumper will not span the distance?

A concave wall bumper like the Ives WS401/402-CCV projects 1 inch off the wall within its 2-1/2 inch x 3/8 inch x 1 inch envelope, so the door has to arrive within that reach. Where baseboard, a wainscot, or a deeper trim profile sets the wall face back, the ABH RM Series and ABH RMS Series wall door stops are offered in multiple length options and are the ones to look at for a longer projection to the strike point. Those are the sizing decision; the Ives is the one to keep when the wall surface is flush and a lock button needs the concave face.

8) Which finishes do the Ives concave wall bumpers come in, and can I match the rest of my door hardware?

Seven finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil-rubbed satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, and 626 satin chrome. For a building already standardized on 626 satin chrome lever sets, which is the most common commercial finish, the matching bumper is WS401/402-CCV-US26D. 626 and 613 are the two that turn up most in a fleet spec.

9) Will people be able to pull the rubber out of these wall bumpers?

A retainer ring holds the grey rubber in the cast brass body, which is what makes the WS401/402-CCV tamper resistant. In a school corridor, a dorm, or a lobby, the failure mode on a cheap wall stop is not wear, it is somebody prying the rubber puck out with a fingernail and leaving a brass ring to gouge the door. The retainer ring is the reason to spend the money here rather than on a residential-grade bumper.

10) My door hits the wall too far above or below where a bumper reaches. What do I use?

A round wall bumper like the WS401/402-CCV catches the door at one point, so it only works if that point lines up with something solid on the door, not a glass light or a recessed panel. Where the strike point is awkward or the door is oversized, a wall stop with a longer body gives you a taller target: ZenSupply carries the ABH RM Series and RMS Series wall door stops, both offered in multiple lengths. Those also help when you need to reach past a base or a chair rail to find the wall.

11) Will these Ives bumpers hold a door open, or just stop it?

Stop only. The WS401/402-CCV is a bumper: it takes the impact of the swing and protects the wall, the door, and the lock, and the door falls back closed as normal. If you need the door to stay put at a set angle, that is a hold-open function and requires a different device, either a hold-open stop or a closer with a hold-open arm. Ordering a bumper for a hold-open requirement is one of the more common wrong picks on a hardware schedule.

12) Is a hole plate cover an acceptable substitute for a wall bumper?

No - the Delaney 2310011 is a 2-1/8 inch hole plate metal cover, a trim plate that conceals an existing opening in a surface. It does not stop a door. The Ives WS401/402-CCV is a heavy-duty cast brass wall bumper built to take repeated door contact and carrying ANSI/BHMA 156.16, L12251. The two get confused because both are small round brass-look discs on a wall; only the bumper absorbs the swing. A hole plate is what goes over the hole left behind after an old wall stop is removed and relocated.

13) For standardizing wall stops across a commercial facility, how does the Ives WS401/402CCV compare with the Emtek 2255?

Both are brass wall bumpers. The Ives WS401/402-CCV is designated commercial, heavy duty, and carries ANSI/BHMA 156.16, L12251, which is the reference an institutional spec or a facility standard is usually written against, and it comes in seven finishes including 626 satin chrome and 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed for matching existing hardware across a fleet of doors. The Emtek 2255 is a brass wall bumper mounted on a regular rosette, giving a decorative rosette-backed appearance at the wall. Where the standard calls out a BHMA line item, the Ives answers it directly.

14) Can a standard flat wall bumper be used on a door with a knob that has a projecting push button?

A flat-faced bumper puts the pad against whatever part of the lock reaches it first, which on a knob with a projecting button means the button takes the hit. The concave face is the reason to choose the Ives WS401/402-CCV, whose recessed grey rubber bumper is shaped to clear locks with projecting buttons, or the Delaney 40270x, a 2-1/4 inch concave wall bumper. The Ives also uses a retainer ring that makes the rubber tamper resistant, which matters on openings where the bumper itself gets picked at.

15) Is one order of Ives WS401/402CCV one bumper or a pair?

The model designation WS401/402-CCV covers the concave wall bumper as a single unit with its fasteners, and the finish is the only option you choose. WS401 and WS402 in the Ives naming denote the two body sizes in the family, so the finish suffix is what distinguishes what you get: US26D for 626 satin chrome, US15 for 619 satin nickel, US10B for 613 oil-rubbed bronze, and so on. Count one per opening.

16) What is the difference between the ABH RM and RMS series wall stops and an Ives concave wall bumper?

The ABH RM Series and ABH RMS Series are wall door stops offered in multiple length options, so the selection turns on how far the stop has to project from the wall to meet the door. The Ives WS401/402-CCV is a single fixed size at 2-1/2 inch x 3/8 inch x 1 inch in cast brass, with the choice made on finish instead - seven are offered, from 605 bright brass to 625 bright chrome. Two different ordering decisions: length on the ABH series, finish on the Ives.
