Rockwood 470 Door Stop, Cast brass with rubber bumper, Plastic and Lead Anchor Fasteners

The 470 is a floor-mounted dome stop that anchors into the floor in front of the door swing, so it stops the door before the handle reaches the wall. It stands 3 inches tall with a 2-1/2 inch diameter base, so it works where the door has enough clearance underneath to swing over the base. If the door bottom clears less than that, a wall stop or a hinge-pin stop is the better call. The rubber bumper takes the impact rather than the brass casting.

Each 470 ships with three #12 x 1-1/4 inch flat head wood screws and three plastic anchors. That combination covers wood subfloor directly, and the plastic anchors handle concrete or masonry once you drill for them. For an exterior or wet location, order the 470 x EXP suffix, which substitutes an exterior screw pack stainless steel plated to match the finish. Nothing else is required to mount it.

Yes, the 470 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.16 under function number L02121, which is the standard covering auxiliary hardware including floor stops. That is the line an institutional or government spec typically calls out, so it can be submitted against an A156.16 requirement without a substitution request. It is a commercial-duty product, not a residential builder's stop.

The Ives FS13 and FS17 are the direct counterparts, both heavy-duty brass floor dome stops with a rubber bumper, and the FS13 bumper is replaceable. On the decorative side, Deltana's UFBD3505 is a 3-1/2 inch round universal floor bumper in solid brass and the UFB4505 is a 1-1/2 inch version. The Emtek 2251 half dome is the residential-styling equivalent. The 470 differs from all of them in carrying an ANSI A156.16 L02121 certification, which matters if the job is spec-driven.

The 470 is a floor stop only - it stops the door and lets it swing back. For hold-open, the Orca Hardware 22HD Series goose neck floor stop is specified with a door holder function and fits 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch doors. The Ives FS40 / FS41 / FS42 / FS43 automatic floor stop and holder is a heavy-duty option with adjustable door-to-floor clearance, which matters where the finished floor height varies from opening to opening. The SOSS MDH is a magnetic door holder and stop measuring 3-5/16 inch by 1-3/4 inch, also heavy duty.

The Ives FS13 is the nearest match in kind: a heavy-duty brass floor dome stop with a replaceable rubber bumper. The Rockwood 470 is cast brass with a rubber bumper, 2-1/2 inch diameter by 3 inch high, and meets ANSI A156.16 L02121. The functional difference to weigh is the bumper: the FS13 bumper is described as replaceable, so the stop stays in service when the rubber wears, while the 470 is specified as a cast brass body with rubber bumper. The Ives FS17 is the other heavy-duty brass floor dome stop in the same family.

They are not interchangeable in duty class. The Deltana UFB4505 is a 1-1/2 inch round solid brass universal floor bumper, the UFBS138 is a 1-3/8 inch square version, and the UFBP4505 is a 1-5/8 inch pattern-cap version - low-profile bumpers that cushion the door leaf where it lands. The Rockwood 470 is a cast brass floor stop 2-1/2 inch in diameter and 3 inch tall meeting ANSI A156.16 L02121, so it stands tall enough to catch the door face and is specified to a commercial standard. Where a facility spec calls out an ANSI A156.16 stop, a universal bumper does not answer it.

The Rockwood 470 is 3 inches high with a 2-1/2 inch diameter, which is what gives it reach to the door face but also what puts it into the walking path. For a lower silhouette, the Orca Hardware 23LP Series dome floor stop is a low rise dome stop with a gray tip. The Deltana UFBD3505 is a 3-1/2 inch round decorative solid brass floor bumper, and the Emtek 2254 floor door bumper is 1-3/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch. Lower stops need the door to reach further before it is caught, so confirm the door swing lands on the stop before switching.

Three finishes: 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 625 bright chrome, and 626 satin chrome. 626 is the one that matches the satin chrome lever and closer hardware on most commercial openings, and 625 pairs with polished chrome trim. 613 is the dark oil-rubbed bronze used on hospitality and higher-end residential jobs. If you order the exterior screw pack, the screws are plated to match the finish you choose.

Yes, with the EXP option. Order it as 470 x EXP and the standard screw pack is replaced with an exterior pack, stainless steel plated to match the finish. That is the change that matters outdoors, since the cast brass body and rubber bumper handle the exposure but plain steel wood screws will rust out at the anchor and loosen the stop. Specify the suffix at time of order.

At 3 inches tall on a 2-1/2 inch base, the 470 sits proud enough to be felt underfoot, which is why it belongs behind the door leaf rather than out in a walking path. In high-traffic corridors, healthcare, and anywhere housekeeping runs equipment, a lower profile is the usual answer: the Orca 23LP Series dome floor stop is a low rise version, and Deltana's UFBS138 square bumper is 1-3/8 inch. Where the door has a large undercut and needs a taller reach, the 3 inch height of the 470 is the point.

One per leaf. A floor dome stop has no handing, so the same 470 works on a left hand or right hand door and on either leaf of a pair. Position it so the door contacts the rubber bumper before the lever or closer arm reaches the wall, then mark and drill for the three #12 x 1-1/4 inch screws. Order two for a pair of doors.

A floor stop like the 470 only works where the strike point sits over solid floor within the door's arc. Where it does not, a goose neck stop reaches up from the floor to catch the door higher: the Delaney Gooseneck Floor Door Stop, the Emtek 2253 Goose Style Door Stop, and the Orca Hardware 22HD Series goose neck floor stop with black tip, which also holds the door and is specified for 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch doors. Goose neck stops sit further into the traffic path than a 3 inch dome, so check the corridor clearance.

The Rockwood 470 is a commercial cast brass stop to ANSI A156.16 L02121, anchored with three #12 x 1-1/4 inch flat head wood screws and three plastic anchors. For openings where the stop itself is a target, the Ives FS18S/FS18L security floor stop is the heavy-duty option built for that condition. The Ives FS13 and FS17 heavy-duty brass floor dome stops are the alternatives where abuse resistance matters but a security-specific stop is not required.

For lighter residential-style openings, the Delaney Dome Door Stop and the Emtek 2251 Half Dome Door Stop are dome-form stops in the same footprint role. The Emtek 2257 is a 1-1/2 inch cylindrical floor bumper. The Rockwood 470 is a commercial cast brass stop built to ANSI A156.16 L02121 at 2-1/2 inch diameter by 3 inch high - if the opening is on an institutional or commercial spec, the standard reference is the reason to stay with the 470.

The 470 body is cast brass, so the part that gets kicked and mopped is solid metal through, not a plating over pot metal that chips at the edge. Rockwood hardware is used across institutional buildings, offices, retail, educational, detention, sports facilities, hotels and restaurants, and the 470 is a commercial product carrying ANSI A156.16 certification. For abuse-prone openings, the Ives FS18S/FS18L security floor stop is the heavy-duty alternative built for tamper resistance.

The Rockwood 470 comes in 626 satin chrome, 625 bright chrome, and 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, so it can be brought to the same finish family as the rest of the hardware on the opening. Among the heavy-duty brass dome stops, the Ives FS13 and FS17 are the direct counterparts in form, and the FS13 carries a replaceable rubber bumper. Standardizing on one model across a fleet is usually the cleaner path than mixing dome profiles floor to floor, since the strike height and floor anchor pattern then stay consistent for maintenance.
