Heritage Brass Door Stops

Solid Brass Door Stops for Floors, Walls and Skirting

Every Heritage Brass door stop by M.Marcus is here: almost 130 solid brass door stops in 17 designs and nine finishes. A door stop protects your walls, skirting boards and door handles by stopping the door before the handle hits the plaster. Part of the Heritage Brass door furniture accessories range.

Floor or Wall Door Stop?

Floor door stops are fixed to the floor where the door would swing into the wall, and suit doors that open against furniture or a radiator. Wall and projection door stops are fixed to the wall or skirting board behind the door and stay out of the way underfoot. To hold a door open as well as stop it, see our Heritage Brass door holders.

Choose a Design

  • Round floor door stops: plain, knurled and stepped designs 45mm high, a low 38mm round stop and a square round contemporary stop

  • Square floor door stops: a traditional 42mm stop with buffers on two sides and a slim modern 30mm stop

Door Stop Questions

What is the difference between a floor and a wall door stop?
A floor door stop is fixed to the floor where the door would swing into the wall. A wall or projection door stop is fixed to the wall or skirting board behind the door. Both stop the door before the handle can damage the plaster.

Which door stop is best for a skirting board?
A projection door stop is fixed to the skirting board and reaches out to meet the door. Choose the 64mm size for most doors, or the 76mm size for deeper skirting boards and handles that stick out further.

How do I choose the right projection?
Measure how far your door handle sticks out from the door. Choose a wall or projection door stop at least that long, so the door meets the stop before the handle reaches the wall.

Do you sell magnetic door stops?
Yes. The Heritage Brass magnetic shielded floor door stop holds the door open as well as stopping it. See our door holders for more ways to hold a door open.

Are Heritage Brass door stops sold singly?
Yes. Every Heritage Brass door stop is sold singly and supplied with matching fixing screws.

Finish the door with a matching Heritage Brass coat hook or hat and coat hook in the same finish as your door stop. To secure the same door, add matching Heritage Brass door bolts, such as straight or cranked door bolts.

How to Choose a Door Stop

1. Floor or wall: fit a floor door stop where the door opens against furniture or there is nothing to fix to on the wall. Fit a wall or skirting door stop where a stop on the floor would be in the way.

2. Check the projection: measure how far your handle sticks out from the door and choose a wall or projection stop at least that long. The 64mm size suits most doors, and the 76mm size suits deeper skirting boards.

3. Match the finish: choose the same finish as your handles and hinges. Brass door stops come in bright polished brass, brushed satin brass and antique brass, or choose chrome door stops, satin nickel, polished nickel or matt bronze.

4. Need it held open? A standard door stop only stops the door. To hold it open as well, choose the magnetic floor door stop or a gravity door holder from our Heritage Brass door holders.

More Door Stop Questions

Is a door stop the same as a door stopper?

Yes. Door stop and door stopper mean the same thing: a fitting that stops a door before the handle hits the wall. A door wedge that holds a door open is a different product.

Can I use a door stop on a fire door?

A fixed door stop that only stops the door is fine. Never use a magnetic door stop or door holder to hold a fire door open. Fire doors must be free to close unless they are fitted with an approved hold-open device linked to the fire alarm.

Will brass door stops tarnish?

Polished brass and satin brass door stops are lacquered to slow tarnishing, so wipe them with a soft damp cloth and avoid brass polish. Antique brass and matt bronze are designed to age, and polished nickel develops a gentle patina unless buffed regularly.

How are door stops fixed?

Every Heritage Brass door stop is supplied with fixing screws for timber floors, skirting boards and walls. For concrete, tiled or masonry surfaces, use a suitable wall plug or fixing.

Floor or skirting door stop for a carpeted room?

A skirting or wall door stop is usually easier in a carpeted room, as it fixes to the skirting board and nothing sits on the carpet. A floor door stop can still be used, fixed firmly through the carpet into the floor below.
