Rockwood 476 Door Stop with Keeper, 3-3/4" Projection, 2-1/4" Diameter Base, Plastic Anchor Fasteners

Projection is 3-3/4 inches from the wall, on a 2-1/4 inch diameter base. That number decides whether the door clears the baseboard, the casing, and anything mounted low on the wall before the bumper takes the hit. Measure from your finished wall face to the door face at full swing: if you need more reach, the Delaney solid brass baseboard stop adjusts from 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 inches, and the Emtek 2231 baseboard stop is a 4 inch model.

Everything for both pieces is in the box. The stop ships with 3 each #12 x 1-1/4 inch flat head wood screws and 3 plastic anchors; the keeper gets 2 each #12 x 1-1/4 inch flat head wood screws and 2 plastic anchors. The plastic anchors are what let it go into drywall or plaster where there is no solid blocking behind the baseboard. Hit a stud or solid wood baseboard and you can run the wood screws straight in and leave the anchors out.

It is a commercial-duty stop, certified to ANSI A156.16 under function number L01341. That is the ANSI/BHMA standard for auxiliary door hardware, and the L number is what a spec writer or facilities buyer puts on a hardware schedule to standardize the same stop across a building. Body is solid cast brass with a rubber bumper, not a stamped or zinc part.

The Rockwood 476 has a fixed 3-3/4 inch projection, so it only suits openings where the door face lands at that distance from the base trim. Where the standoff varies across a building, the Delaney solid brass baseboard door stop adjusts from 3-1/2 inches to 4-1/2 inches, covering a range instead of a single dimension, which lets one part number cover doors with differing casing depths. It is a baseboard stop in the same mounting position as the 476.

The 476 holds by mechanical catch, not friction: the keeper on the door engages the stop, so weight of the door is less of a factor than what the wall behind it is made of. The load path is three #12 wood screws. Into a stud or solid wood base, that is a solid anchor. Into drywall or hollow plaster with only the supplied plastic anchors, a heavy door hitting it repeatedly will eventually work the fasteners loose, so back it with blocking or swap to a fastener rated for that wall type. Stop body is cast brass, so the part itself is not the weak point.

Three: 626 satin chrome, 606 satin brass, and 613 oil-rubbed bronze. 626 is the usual match for satin chrome or brushed nickel lever sets and closers in commercial corridors, 606 pairs with brass trim, and 613 is the dark bronze option. The keeper ships in the same finish as the stop, so the door-side piece matches the wall-side piece without ordering separately.

Baseboard stops like the 476 mount to the wall at the base, so nothing sits in the walking path and nothing gets in the way of a mop or a floor machine. That is why they show up in corridors, offices, and hotel rooms. Use a floor stop instead when the door swings clear of any wall, the baseboard is too flimsy to take the load, or the door opens into an open room with nothing behind it. A floor-mount option in that case is the Delaney 2 inch round solid brass floor bumper. If the door needs to stop at a set opening angle away from the wall entirely, an overhead-style rigid stop such as the Hager 212, which covers an 80 to 120 degree range, is the different tool for that job.

The 476 fixes with three screws into a 2-1/4 inch diameter base, so it covers old holes only if they fall within that footprint. Coming off a single-screw spring stop, the base will usually hide the old hole. Coming off another three-hole stop from a different maker, the pattern will not line up and you will be drilling fresh, which is what the plastic anchors are supplied for. There is also a door-side keeper on this one at 1 inch by 1-3/4 inches, so if you are swapping in from a plain bumper you will be drilling the door face for the first time.

Only if the opening can take a floor-mounted stop. The Rockwood 476 anchors to the baseboard and projects 3-3/4 inches horizontally to catch the door face, and it comes with a keeper so the door can be held open. The Delaney round solid brass floor bumper is 2 inches high and mounts into the floor, so it catches the bottom edge of the door and leaves nothing on the wall. That matters where the wall behind the door is glass, tile, or a partition that cannot be drilled, and it matters the other way where a floor anchor is unwanted in a traffic path or on a finished floor.

No. The Hager 212 is an adjustable rigid door stop in the 210 Series with an 80 to 120 degree range, so it is set by the swing angle at which the door should be arrested. The Rockwood 476 is a baseboard-mounted stop with a fixed 3-3/4 inch projection off a 2-1/4 inch diameter base, set by distance from the base trim rather than by degrees, and it carries a keeper for hold-open. If the door must stop at a defined angle to clear adjacent millwork or another leaf, the Hager 212 addresses that; if it must stop where it reaches the wall, the 476 does.

The Rockwood 476 is a commercial-grade cast brass stop meeting ANSI A156.16, L01341, with a rubber bumper and an included keeper for hold-open duty. Where the same opening calls for a heavy duty holder rather than a wall stop with a catch, the Orca Hardware TH-30HD is a heavy duty rigid door stop in the 30HD Series whose function is listed as a door holder. Both address the hold-open requirement; the 476 does it with a baseboard stop and separate keeper plate, and the TH-30HD does it as a single rigid holder unit.
