Trimco TRI-1257M.626 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the difference between the Trimco 1257M and the 1258M floor stop?
Two different jobs. The 1257M is a combination floor stop and holder, so the plunger can be stepped down to hold the door open at the stop point. The 1258M is a spring floor stop only, it stops the door but will not hold it open. If the door only needs to be protected from swinging into a wall, take the 1258M. If someone needs to prop it open for traffic or ventilation, the 1257M is the one.
2) Will a Trimco 1257M floor stop still work if the carpet is too thick for the door to clear it?
That is what the 1257R riser is for. It is a large heavy duty cast riser made for the 1257M and 1258M floor stops and holders, and it raises the stop so the strike point lands on the door rather than under it over thick carpet or a raised floor finish. The riser is a separate item, so order it alongside the stop if you need the extra height.
3) Is a cast brass floor stop like the Trimco 1257M tough enough for a school or a detention setting?
That is exactly the application it was built around. The 1257M is cast in solid brass or bronze rather than formed or die cast, and Trimco positions the 1257 Series for high abuse openings like schools, prisons, and public buildings. It is a commercial grade item, not a residential wall bumper.
4) Is the Trimco 1257M plunger holder ADA compliant?
Yes, the 1257M is listed as ADA compliant. That matters on school corridors, healthcare, and public buildings where floor mounted hardware in the path of travel gets scrutinized during inspection.
5) What finishes does the Trimco 1257M plunger holder come in for matching existing door hardware?
Seven finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, and 626 satin chrome. For a building already standardized on 626 satin chrome levers and closers, the 626 stop matches straight across. The 613 and 613E are both bronze tones but they are not the same color, 613E is the darker oxidized version, so pick by the BHMA number on the existing hardware schedule rather than by the word bronze.
6) Should I use a floor stop and holder or an overhead holder on a heavy abused door?
A floor mounted holder like the Trimco 1257M puts the stopping force into the slab instead of the door frame or the closer arm, which is why it is the choice on high abuse openings in schools and public buildings. The tradeoff is that it sits in the floor, so it is in the walking path and can be a trip or mop obstacle. Where the floor has to stay clear, an overhead stop or a wall bumper is the better answer. Where the door gets slammed and abused, the cast floor unit takes it.
7) Can I order the Trimco 1257R riser by itself to add to a floor stop already installed?
The 1257R is a stand alone option in the 1257 Series, listed as a riser for the 1257M and 1258M floor stops and holders. It is not packed with the stop, so it is ordered separately when the opening needs the added height. It only suits those two models.
