PDQ 226626 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the hold open on the PDQ 226 floor stop actually do?
The PDQ 226 is an offset floor stop with a hold open feature, so it does two jobs at one anchor point: it stops the door at a set swing and it will hold the door open at that point until someone releases it. That suits openings where carts, deliveries or airflow mean the door needs to stay put, like a kitchen, a loading area or a mechanical room. If you only need the door stopped and never held, a plain floor stop in the same PDQ floor stop range (low dome, high dome, riser or offset) is the simpler part. Note that a hold open is not appropriate on a fire rated opening, where the door has to be free to close.
2) What finishes does the PDQ 226 offset floor stop come in, and how do I order the right one?
Two finishes: 613E dark oxidized satin bronze and 626 satin chrome. The finish code goes on the end of the model number, so you order 226613E for the dark bronze and 226626 for the satin chrome. If your building is standardized on brushed chrome or stainless looking lever trim, 626 is the match; 613E is the one to use alongside oil rubbed or dark bronze hardware.
3) I need to stop a door but I cannot drill the floor. Is the PDQ 226 the right part?
No. A floor stop like the 226 anchors into the floor, so it is not an option on terrazzo, tile or finished floors you cannot penetrate, or where a slab anchor is not allowed. Look instead at PDQ's wall stops (convex, concave, or adhesive backed bumper), an angled wall stop, a hinge pin stop, or a kick down stop that mounts to the door face in 4 inch or 5 inch lengths. The kick down also gives you a hold open, which is the closest substitute for the 226's function without touching the floor.
4) Why choose an offset floor stop like the PDQ 226 instead of a dome floor stop?
An offset floor stop puts the strike point out away from its floor anchor, which lets the door stop land on the stop body rather than forcing the anchor to sit directly under the door edge. That helps when the anchor has to be set back from the door line or when the door needs more swing than a dome stop placed tight to the leaf would allow. A low or high dome stop sits directly under the door and is lower profile, so it is the better pick in a traffic path where a projecting offset body would be a trip or mop hazard. PDQ offers both styles in its floor stop line.
5) Is the PDQ 226 floor stop rated for commercial use?
Yes, the 226 is a commercial grade door stop and carries the ANSI type designation L01371 for its function. It is part of PDQ's commercial door hardware accessory line, intended for the kind of traffic you get in schools, multi-family corridors, healthcare and office buildings rather than residential use.
6) Will the PDQ 226 match the stops already installed on my other doors?
If the existing stops are PDQ 226 units, yes, and you only need to match finish code: 613E dark oxidized satin bronze or 626 satin chrome. If the other openings use a different style, such as a dome floor stop or a wall stop, the 226 will do the same job but will not look identical, since the offset body with hold open has a different profile. For a fleet standard across a building, keep the style and the finish code consistent on the purchase order.
7) What is the manufacturer part number for the PDQ offset floor stop with hold open?
The base manufacturer part number is 226, and the orderable numbers add the finish: 226613E or 226626. If a distributor or a spec writer asks for the function reference, it is ANSI Type L01371.
