Sure-Loc DS-FL2 15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Sure-Loc floor stop mount to the floor or to the door?
It mounts to the floor at the base of the door swing. Nothing is fastened to the door itself and no door prep is required, which is why it works on a door that is already hung and finished. Plan for a fastening point in the floor where the door edge lands at the open position.
2) Is the Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop right for a commercial corridor or high-traffic entry?
The Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop is classified for residential door hardware use - single-family homes, apartments, and multi-family interiors. For heavy-duty openings, the Ives FS13 and FS17 are heavy-duty brass floor dome stops with rubber bumpers, the FS13 with a replaceable bumper, and the Ives FS18S/FS18L is a heavy-duty security floor stop. The SOSS MDH is also a heavy-duty unit and combines a magnetic door holder with a stop at 3-5/16 by 1-3/4 inches.
3) I need the door to stay open, not just stop - what is the alternative?
The Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop is a stop only; it limits the swing but does not latch the door open. For hold-open, the Ives FS40 / FS41 / FS42 / FS43 is a heavy-duty automatic floor stop and holder, and the SOSS MDH is a heavy-duty magnetic door holder and stop measuring 3-5/16 by 1-3/4 inches. The Orca 22HD Series goose neck is also listed as a door holder, while the Orca 23LP dome stop is a stop only, like the Sure-Loc.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Sure-Loc 3 inch cylindrical floor stop from another brand?
The Emtek 2257 is the nearest match in form - it is a cylindrical floor bumper measuring 1-1/2 inches, so it shares the same straight cylinder profile that mounts at the base of the door swing, at a shorter height than the Sure-Loc's 3 inch size. Deltana's UFB4505 is another round universal floor door bumper at 1-1/2 inches in solid brass. Both work the same way as the Sure-Loc cylindrical stop: a rigid floor-mounted post the door face contacts, with no spring or holder action.
5) The door is too far from the wall for a floor stop at the base - what should I use instead?
A gooseneck style stop reaches up and out from the floor to catch the door face when the swing carries past a low bumper. 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 all use that taller riser geometry. The Orca 22HD is listed as a door holder and fits 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch doors. The Sure-Loc cylindrical stop is a low-profile 3 inch floor mount and is intended to sit close to the door base instead.
6) What finishes does the Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop come in?
Four orderable finishes: 15 Satin Nickel, 26 Polished Chrome, SB Satin Brass, and FBL Flat Black. If you are matching levers and hinges through a house, pick the stop finish off the same code you used on the lockset so the whole opening reads as one set.
7) What is the difference between the Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop and the spring door stop?
Profile and action. The cylindrical version is a rigid 3 inch floor-mounted stop with a low footprint. The Sure-Loc 3-1/8 inch spring stop gives a cushioned, spring-loaded rebound instead. Choose the cylinder where you want the quieter visual line and a firm stop, the spring where you want the door to bounce off rather than hit hard.
8) Is there a shorter or lower-profile floor bumper than the Sure-Loc 3 inch cylinder?
Yes, several smaller floor bumpers sit lower. The Emtek 2257 is a 1-1/2 inch cylindrical floor bumper, the Emtek 2254 floor door bumper measures 1-3/8 by 1-1/4 inches, and the Deltana UFBS138 square universal floor bumper is 1-3/8 inches. Those are worth looking at when the door only needs a short stand-off from the wall or you are trying to stay clear of a vacuum path.
9) I manage apartments and want one floor stop across all the units. Is this a good standardization choice?
It works for that. The Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop is built for residential openings including apartments, condominiums, and multi-family properties, and the four finishes let you match whatever lever finish is already on the doors. Standardize on one finish code per building and turnover replacements stay simple.
10) My baseboard is thick and the door hits it before the wall. Will a floor stop help?
A floor stop stops the door short of whatever it would otherwise hit, so it works for baseboard contact the same way it works for wall contact, as long as you set it where the door edge lands. The Sure-Loc cylinder is 3 inches overall. If the door needs to stop closer to the wall than that, a lower-rise stop such as the Orca 23LP dome floor stop or the Deltana UFB4505 round floor bumper at 1-1/2 inches is the better shape.
11) What is the lowest profile floor stop if I want the least trip hazard?
The Orca Hardware 23LP Series is a low-rise dome floor stop with a gray tip, and the Emtek 2251 Half Dome and Delaney Dome Door Stop use the same shallow dome shape that sits flatter on the floor than an upright cylinder. Deltana's UFBS138 square universal floor bumper is 1-3/8 inches and the Emtek 2254 floor door bumper is 1-3/8 by 1-1/4 inches. The Sure-Loc cylindrical stop is 3 inches with an upright cylinder profile.
12) Is a universal floor bumper the same thing as the Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop?
They serve the same purpose but are not identical parts. The Deltana UFB4505 round universal floor door bumper is 1-1/2 inches in solid brass, and the UFBS138 is a 1-3/8 inch square version - both are short floor-mounted bumpers the door contacts. The Sure-Loc unit is a 3 inch cylindrical floor stop for residential doors, so the height the door face meets differs. Check the strike point on the door face before swapping one for the other, since a shorter bumper may contact a panel edge instead of the flat.
13) For a multi-family property standardizing floor stops, which option lets me replace just the worn bumper?
The Ives FS13 is a heavy-duty brass floor dome stop with a replaceable rubber bumper, which lets maintenance swap the contact tip instead of pulling the whole stop. The Ives FS17 is also a heavy-duty brass floor dome stop with a rubber bumper. The Sure-Loc cylindrical floor stop is a residential-grade mechanical unit with no wiring or power requirements, offered across finishes including satin nickel, polished chrome, satin brass, and flat black for matching a fleet of units.
14) Does this Sure-Loc door stop need wiring or power?
No. It is purely mechanical, with no electronics, wiring, or power supply involved. That keeps it out of the electrical scope on a remodel and means there is nothing to maintain beyond the fastener staying tight.
