Pamex DD02-45 Adjustable Hinge Pin Door Stop

The DD02-45 comes with removable bushings that let it sit on hinge pins from 1/4 inch to 5/16 inch diameter, which covers the pin sizes on standard residential butt hinges. Pull the bushing out for the larger pin, leave it in for the smaller one. If your hinges use a pin outside that range, this is not the stop for that door.

No drilling and no wall anchors. The DD02-45 mounts by pulling the hinge pin, dropping the stop over the barrel, and reseating the pin, so there is nothing fastened to the door, the frame, or the baseboard. That's why it gets used in rentals and finished rooms where a wall stop would mean patching drywall later.

The Pamex DD02-45 is a residential hinge pin stop in wrought steel. On a corridor door, a leasing office entry, or any leaf that gets kicked open all day, step up to a heavy duty version of the same mounting style: the Delaney Heavy Duty Hinge Pin Door Stop, the Delaney Door Saver commercial hinge pin door stop, or the Orca Hardware HPHD HD hinge pin stop, which is in the HPHD series and functions as a door holder. All three hang on the hinge barrel the same way, so the install on a high-traffic door is the same job as the install on a bedroom door.

The Orca Hardware HPDS hinge pin door stop is the closest like-for-like part. Both mount on an existing hinge barrel rather than on the floor or wall, so neither one needs a fastener into the door, the baseboard, or the tile. The Pamex DD02-45 is wrought steel with removable bushings that fit 1/4 inch to 5/16 inch diameter hinge pins and adjusts the door opening from 70 to 100 degrees, with an overall size of 2-3/8 by 3-3/8 inches at maximum. The Orca HPDS is described as a door holder in the HPDS series. For a property manager swapping a broken stop on an interior door, either one goes on with the hinge pin already in the door.

Overall size is 2-3/8 x 3-3/8 inches at maximum extension. The 3-3/8 figure is the stop fully out at its widest setting, so allow that much clearance around the hinge barrel and check nothing (casing, an adjacent wall return, a second door in a pair) sits inside it.

Three finishes: 625 polished chrome, 613 oil rubbed bronze, and 619 satin nickel. Those are standard BHMA finish codes, so a 613 stop matches 613 hinges and levers from any brand using the same code, which is what you want when you're standardizing a building's openings.

The Pamex DD02-45 is the adjustable one: it sets the door opening anywhere from 70 to 100 degrees, which is what you want when a lever or a knob is landing on drywall and you need to dial the swing back short of the wall. The Delaney Door Saver commercial hinge pin door stop and the Delaney Heavy Duty Hinge Pin Door Stop are the alternatives in the same mounting style. The Pamex DD02-45 comes in 625 polished chrome, 613 oil rubbed bronze, and 619 satin nickel, so it can be matched to hinges already on the frame.

They are not the same part and should not be ordered interchangeably. The Pamex DD02-45 is an adjustable hinge pin door stop in wrought steel, offered in 625 polished chrome, 613 oil rubbed bronze, and 619 satin nickel, with removable bushings for 1/4 inch to 5/16 inch hinge pins. The Emtek 2241 is a brass hinges pivot stop. If the door already has butt hinges with a removable pin, the Pamex DD02-45 is the part that matches that hardware; specify the Emtek 2241 only when the door is actually on a pivot.

Orca Hardware lists three: the HPDS hinge pin door stop in the HPDS series, the HPST series hinge pin stop, and the HPHD HD hinge pin stop in the HPHD series. All three are catalogued with a door holder function. Set against them, the Pamex DD02-45 is a residential wrought steel stop that adjusts the door opening from 70 to 100 degrees and takes hinge pins from 1/4 inch to 5/16 inch diameter through removable bushings. A contractor standardizing hinge pin stops across a building can order any of them without changing the hinge, since none of the four require a hole in the door or the wall.
