Sure-Loc DS8 11P – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does this Sure-Loc door stop mount to the baseboard or the floor?
It is a baseboard-mount stop, fastened to the wall base so the door leaf contacts it at the bottom rail. If your wall has no baseboard behind the door swing, a floor-mounted bumper such as the Delaney 2 inch round solid brass floor bumper is the better choice.
2) My door swings past the baseboard by more than 3 inches. Will a 3 inch stop still reach?
Probably not. The Sure-Loc unit is a fixed 3 inch solid stop, so the gap between the baseboard and the door face has to be 3 inches or less for the door to make contact. Where you need more reach, look at the Emtek 2231 baseboard door stop at 4 inches, or the Delaney solid brass baseboard stop that adjusts from 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 inches.
3) Will the Sure-Loc 3 inch Solid Door Stop hold a door open?
No, it stops the swing only. If you need the door to stay open, look at a holder such as the Orca Hardware TH-30HD, which is a rigid stop with a door holder function. The Sure-Loc 3 inch solid stop is built to protect the door, wall, and hardware from swing impact and does not latch the door in the open position.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Sure-Loc 3 inch Solid Door Stop from another brand?
The Emtek 2231 Baseboard Door Stop is the nearest match in form and purpose: it is a baseboard-mounted door stop in a 4 inch size, against the Sure-Loc's 3 inch solid stop. Both mount to the baseboard behind the door swing rather than to the floor or the door itself, so the Emtek 2231 suits the same opening with a slightly longer projection to clear deeper base trim or thicker casing.
5) What should I use instead if the baseboard sits farther from the door than a 3 inch stop can reach?
Step up to an adjustable-projection stop. The Delaney 40201X is a solid brass baseboard door stop that adjusts from 3-1/2 inches to 4-1/2 inches, so one part covers openings where the door lands short of a fixed 3 inch stop. The Sure-Loc solid stop is a fixed 3 inch length, which is the simpler choice when your baseboard depth is consistent across the units.
6) Will this stop hold a door open, or does it only stop the swing?
Stopping only. The Sure-Loc 3 inch solid stop arrests the door swing to protect the wall, door and hardware, and it has no catch to keep the leaf open. If you need the door held open, the Orca Hardware TH-30HD is listed as a door holder.
7) I manage apartments and want one door stop across the whole portfolio. Is this a good standardization pick?
It works well for that. The Sure-Loc solid door stop is built for residential use across single-family homes, condos, apartments and multi-family properties, and the same 3 inch body comes in five finishes, so you can standardize one part number per building and just change finish to match the existing hardware.
8) What is the difference between a rigid baseboard stop like this Sure-Loc and a spring door stop?
A rigid baseboard stop is a solid body fixed to the wall base, so it takes the hit dead and does not flex, which is why it holds up on doors that get slammed. A spring stop, such as the Orca Hardware 3-1/8 inch or 3-3/4 inch spring stops, uses a coiled shaft that absorbs and rebounds the swing and is a bit more forgiving on trim. Both protect the wall; the spring type is the usual pick when the stop lands on soft drywall or delicate base.
9) Is there an electrified or magnetic version of this Sure-Loc door stop?
No. It is a purely mechanical solid stop with no electronic component, so there is no power, wiring or fire-alarm release involved.
10) Can I use this Sure-Loc door stop on an exterior door?
Yes, it is intended for interior and exterior residential doors. The finish should match the rest of the exterior hardware; Flat Black and Vintage Bronze are the usual picks outdoors, with Polished Chrome, Satin Nickel and Satin Brass also available.
11) If I want to match brass trim in a period home, what are my options besides the Sure-Loc stop?
The Sure-Loc 3 inch solid stop covers brass looks directly with Polished Brass and Satin Brass, alongside Vintage Bronze, Satin Nickel, Polished Chrome, and Flat Black. If you want solid brass material rather than a brass finish, the Delaney 40201X is a solid brass baseboard door stop and the Delaney 4029XX is a solid brass floor bumper in a 2 inch height.
