You are tired of loud slamming doors and hard-hitting chips on the walls left by the door leaf, so it's time to purchase and install a door opening limiter. Next, we will analyze in detail the types of such devices, and finally we will show how to install a door limiter with our own hands.

Door openers are quite varied.

A stool pushed under the door and a homemade wooden wedge are slowly becoming history. Now the industry produces a wide variety of stops, which are sometimes difficult to understand.

Limiter classification

In fact, a door stop is one of the varieties of small fittings. Doors are divided into entrance and interior doors, the weight and dimensions of the canvases can vary greatly, respectively, and the stops on the door are different.

In addition, door restraints can perform different, sometimes opposite functions. It is one thing when you need an emphasis so that the canvas does not hit the wall, and completely different when you need to protect children's fingers from a door that does not close in time.

But how to make the right choice, if often an ordinary person has a rather vague idea of ​​what kind of mechanism he needs. First, let's go over the basic terms.

The original design of the door stop.

• Stops - designed to limit the angle of rotation of the door, and sometimes fix the door leaf at the end point when it comes into contact with the stop;
• Chippers - needed fucking to soften or prevent the door leaf from hitting a wall or any other object, for example, furniture;
• Stoppers - these structures must rigidly fix the canvas at a certain point. The most prominent representative of stoppers can be called a well-known chain;
• Cover plates - prevent the door from completely slamming, leaving a small gap between the jamb and the door leaf;
• Latches are, in fact, a type of lock, the latch fixes the door in the closed state. There is still no consensus among experts on whether to classify latches as locks or still to stops;
• A closer - as a rule, this is an entrance door opening limiter. The direct purpose of the closer is to ensure the smooth closing of the doors, but there are models that allow the door to be fixed open at a certain point.

Many modern door closers can be adjusted locally.

Despite the variety of terms and the countless number of models, all these designs are divided into 3 fundamental areas:

1. Floor-mounted limiters;
2. Wall-mounted limiters;
3. Limiters installed on the door itself.

Floor models

A floor stopper for a door is perhaps the most reliable option, because the floor is static, it will not go anywhere, plus the price of most floor models, as a rule, does not "get out" beyond 200 rubles.

The color of the permanently fixed support-post should be in harmony with the overall design.

Metal bumpers are stationary stops that are rigidly attached to the floor. The height of such a stop ranges from 3 to 7 cm, the average cylinder diameter is 20 - 30 mm. In order not to "cripple" the door on the post there is a groove with a rubber or polyurethane seal.

With proper installation, the column itself does not threaten anything, the seals will have to be changed periodically. In the residential area of ​​an apartment or a private house, it is better not to put the columns, as it is easy to trip over them, but as a limiter for opening the front door, the column fits perfectly.

When choosing such a column, it is better to give preference to shiny and contrasting models. They are at least visible from afar and it is less likely that a person will stumble.

Semicircular door opening limiter.

The semicircular door opening stop looks like a quarter-cut ball with a shock-absorbing pad. There is no fundamental difference in the operation of posts and semicircular stops, but when installing the latter, the installation angle must be taken into account so that the door leaf contacts the rubber gasket, and does not hit the metal.

The magnetic door stop keeps the door open.

A door stop equipped with a magnet is a more functional design. A small magnet is built into the head of the stationary stop, and a counter metal plate is attached to the door, as a result, the door leaf is fixed when it comes into contact with the stop.

For entrance doors, magnetic structures, of course, are not very suitable, because the strength of the magnet is not enough to hold the canvas in gusts of wind, but in the room such stops work flawlessly.

Cork stops only fit the corresponding design.

Cork, rubber and polyurethane restraints are a kind of the same posts, the only difference is in the material. But before putting such an original emphasis, you need to think carefully, because a soft stopper is not a guarantee that you will not "beat off" your fingers against it, plus the cork is practically invisible on the carpet.

The ability to close the head of the stop in the latch installed on the door jamb is quite a useful feature. Such devices have proven themselves especially well on the front doors of offices, administrative buildings and shops, in general, wherever a simple retainer can pop out due to carelessness or from a gust of wind.

A spring stop is a good solution for temporarily fixing the door leaf.

The design solution is ingeniously simple: on both sides of the flexible steel plate, synthetic anti-slip "hedgehogs" are fixed, you just need to bend the plate slightly and slide it under the doors.

Such a device is well suited for temporarily securing doors, for example, if you need to bring in furniture. With this stop, even if the door moves from an accidental push, the expensive laminate or parquet floor will remain intact.

A wedge retainer is the simplest solution to the problem.

Wedge-shaped, or as they are also called, mobile clamps are now made of different synthetic materials, but in fact they are the same wooden wedges that our grandfathers inserted under the doors, only the outer surroundings have changed. While synthetics must be given their due, such a door stop does not slide on the floor.

The signal limiter can become the last bastion on the path of the robbers. Cheaper models simply emit a loud sound when the door leaf touches them, and the "advanced" stops silently send a radio signal to some receiving device, for example, to a mobile phone or a security console.

Wall models

Installing a door stopper on the wall is an excellent way out for rooms where, for one reason or another, it is not desirable to attach a fixture to the floor, for example, expensive floor coverings such as marble or natural parquet.

Classic wall-mounted door stop.

The cost of wall fixtures starts at 150 rubles, although this is not a lot, but still more than that of floor restraints.

The market leader here is a standard stop with a platform and a rubber bumper attached to the top of a metal rod. It differs from the floor version made of cork by the presence of a wider support platform and a rod from 5 to 15 cm long.

When choosing, you need to consider what material your wall is from. For monolithic brick or concrete walls, there is no difference, but for drywall you need to buy a device with a wide mounting platform (at least 100x100 mm), otherwise the gypsum board will simply break from a point impact.

The simplest wall stopper with self-tapping screws.

The wall-mounted version of the magnetic device can differ from its floor-mounted "brother" only in the length of the rod, otherwise they are identical.

Often it is not possible to fix the stopper on the floor, and rubber shock absorbers with a rod leave unpleasant marks on the door leaf. In this case, a soft wall cover under the handle will help you.

Soft synthetics will smoothly extinguish the blow, you don't need to drill the wall to mount the stop, just glue the fixture onto double-sided tape, and most importantly, there are a lot of design options and choosing a model for your interior will not be difficult.

Soft model with support under the handle

There are also stops with a reliable lock in the line of wall fixtures. As shown in the photo below, the mechanism itself is attached to the wall with self-tapping screws, and a hook with a platform is screwed from the bottom end to the door leaf.

The principle of operation is simple: a rounded door hook, approaching the stopper, raises the movable part and, thanks to a spring, the latch clings. The only inconvenience is that the latch will have to be pushed back manually to release the doors.

Wall-mounted version of the stop with a lock.

Overhead devices

The beauty is that if we are talking about wooden or plastic doors, then you only need a screwdriver to attach such a limiter, and in some cases you can do with one glue. Plus the walls and floor will remain intact.

In hinged metal stops, the base plate is screwed to the door leaf with self-tapping screws, but during installation, you need to be careful about setting the angle of inclination of the limiter relative to the floor, an acute angle can cause the mechanism to break. The optimum slope is around 45º.

In addition, when choosing, it is better to give preference to mechanisms that have a folding spring, they are much more reliable.

Folding metal door stop.

The tape stop can be safely called a symbol of simplicity. On both sides of the strong tape, pads for self-tapping screws are attached, you just need to screw these pads to the doors and the jamb.

True, the appearance of this limiter leaves much to be desired, plus such tapes are frayed or torn quite quickly.

If you nevertheless decide to buy a tape stop, then it is better to choose elastic stretchable models, their price is not much higher, but such stops are more convenient in operation.

The tape stop is considered one of the simplest and most affordable options.

The retractable over-door stop is a rod with a kind of brake shoe. It is installed in a vertical position and you yourself can decide where exactly to fix the structure.

The retractable door stop is a fairly compact and convenient device.

The sliding model is designed to rigidly fix the door leaf at certain points, there can be several points, it all depends on the number of cutouts in a solid base groove.

This device cannot be called completely over the door, since the base part with a groove is attached to the door jamb, and only the movable rod is fixed on the canvas. Although this is not essential, on some models the fasteners can be interchanged.

The undoubted advantage of such a stop is installation in the upper part of the doors, where it does not bother anyone. On the other hand, in order to release the stem from the locking groove, you will have to reach it, which is not always convenient.

One of the popular sliding stop models.

Soft linings prevent the door from slamming. These devices are especially convenient in children's rooms, with such overlays, your child's fingers are much less likely to be pinched in the door. There is no need to talk about installation at all, the elastic is simply put on the door.

The soft pad is designed to protect the doors from accidental slamming.

Installation technique

Installing a door stop is quite simple. We will not talk about the gluing options, you can handle this yourself, as for fixing to self-tapping screws, the instructions are something like this:

1. We install the door with a gap of about 20 mm between the handle and the wall and mark the position on the floor;
2. At the mark on the floor, set the emphasis at the desired angle;
3. We drill a hole for a dowel for a self-tapping screw and insert the dowel itself;
4. We fasten the stop with a self-tapping screw to the floor.

Wall and door opening stops are mounted in about the same way, so there is no point in retelling this simple instruction.

Conclusion

We have tried to fully reflect all types of door stops. In the video in this article, you will find additional information on this topic.

There are many varieties of door fittings, without which not only convenience, but also the operation of the product itself is impossible. The list is significant - awnings, handles, eyes, locking mechanisms. But the door opening limiter is not included in the list of necessary accessories, and so far few people know about it, moreover, they install it during the installation of the unit. But in most cases, this fixing element is simply irreplaceable.

Assigning Limiters

Their main function, regardless of the variety, is to protect and protect. Who (or what) and from what exactly?

• Of people. Situations are not uncommon when the door leaf suddenly swings open spontaneously from a strong draft or from someone's effort. And if there is a child in front of her? Although an adult can quite easily be injured by the same pen, or even by the canvas itself. When installing a door lock, such cases are completely excluded. This locking element holds it securely in a user-defined position.

• Property. A sharp opening of the sash leads to the fact that it touches the wall with a handle, a piece of furniture standing near the doorway. More precisely, it hits them. As a result, damage to the lining of the room and the canvas itself. If we analyze all the costs for at least partial repairs, the elimination of defects that have appeared with the cost of a stopper on the door, the conclusion is unambiguous; its installation is more than advisable.

• Hardware elements. This fact is not mentioned by all sources, but it exists. For example, if we are talking about a "checkpoint" door, which has to be constantly opened, then the limiter allows you to reduce the wear rate of the same hinges. With a large flow of people or frequent movement of households from one room to another and back (for example, in the morning, before leaving for work), it is enough to fix the sash in the open position so that it does not constantly slam. The same applies to the resource of the latch mechanism combined with the handle of the interior door; it also has a yield limit.

Types of restraints

They are classified according to several parameters, but this does not mean that the division of emphasis into varieties is just that unambiguous. Each of the modifications of the limiters is characterized by a number of features that are characteristic of one or another group of products. Knowing the peculiarities of their functioning and use, it is easier to look for the optimal version of the latch for a particular door.

According to the specifics of the application

Latches that hold the door in a closed position. In fact, these are latches that prevent the sash from opening spontaneously. You do not need to turn the handle to open them; just pull the door towards you. The most difficult in terms of the device are the movement limiters installed on the balcony plastic doors.

Roller clips are reliable and durable. The working "body" is most often made in the form of a ball, which in the closed position enters the slot of the striker mounted on the jamb.

In order for the mechanism to work properly, little is required - systematic monitoring of the state of the door and timely adjustment. With significant sagging, skewing, the latch will not work, since the roller will move relative to the seat.

Fale-type stopper is a beveled tongue that is articulated with the door handle mechanism. When pressed or turned, it is drawn into the sash. It is returned to its original position by a spring. Interior and entrance doors are equipped with such clamps.

Magnetic door stops that hit the market are rapidly gaining popularity. They are a pair of plates, one of which is attached to the canvas, the other to the box. Such clamps are not afraid of distortions, deformation of the canvases; they reliably hold the sash regardless of the operating conditions, do not require maintenance, adjustment and, if used carefully, can perform their function indefinitely.

These stops are necessary to keep the door securely in the open position. Many people themselves make clamps of this type from improvised materials, placing a rolled newspaper, a tablet or an old slipper between the canvas and the frame; therefore, the principle of the limiter is clear.

The so-called "jacks" consist of a pedal (fixed on the floor or canvas) and a rod rigidly connected to it, which is held by a spring. Such latches of the open position of the door are controlled exclusively by the foot, which is convenient if your hands are busy with something, and the sash needs to be closed behind you. Moreover, if necessary, you can easily rearrange the stop of this type, thereby changing the angle to which the canvas is swung open.

The door lock in the open position, which is equipped with a PVC structure, is made in a different way. Its task is to exclude the tight closing of the opening to the balcony. For example, if a child comes out on him, and the door slams shut from a gust of wind, he is unlikely to be able to cope with it on his own. It takes some effort and the baby is completely isolated.

Swing angle limiters

"Combs" are installed mainly on plastic balcony doors. Their purpose is to hold the sash in a user-selected position. For example, for airing a room. One part of the latch is attached to the door leaf, the other to the block. Such fittings are familiar to many from plastic windows; the analogy is complete.

"Hoses" and "tapes". Opening limiters of this type are installed on entrance and interior doors. Unlike combs, they do not fix them, but fully correspond to their name. The length of the hose (tape) determines the maximum angle to which the sash can be opened. Since it is adjustable, it improves the usability.

By installation method

The restraints are fastened on a solid basis, where it is more convenient for the owner and more expedient, based on local specifics:

• wall;

• door leaf (block).

By the principle of functioning

• Conventional stops. They are a hard core with a soft coating; mainly RTI.
• Mechanical stops. The same latches controlled by the doorknob mechanism.
• Magnetic clips.

By execution

• Stationary installation. For example, interior door latch, "comb".
• Mobile versions. A typical example is a “jack” retainer.

The benefits of installing limiters are obvious. And if you consider that they can be made in the most original form (various figures and the like), then this element of door hardware is easy to fit into any interior. Moreover, the choice of products is huge, since many of them combine several functions - to limit, fix, regulate.

Door opener ZE is designed to keep the door open at any opening angle. Holding is ensured by the latch protruding to the required distance from the bottom edge of the door to the floor level. The crossbar is always in tension due to the action of the spring.

The clamps are available in five versions: the bolt protrusion is 25, 60, 75, 90, 160 mm. A latch with a 160 mm outlet can hold the door with a maximum distance from the bottom edge of the door to the floor level. However, the dimensions of this latch are the same as the latch with a 90 mm deadbolt protrusion. Thanks to the use of an integrated spring in the deadbolt heel, the door remains securely fixed even on uneven and polished floors.

All metal parts of the retainer are made of either aluminum or stainless steel, including internal parts. The push button for the 25, 60, 75 and 90 mm overhang models is made of rubber, while the 160 mm overhang models are made of metal. The open position lock is ideal for use outdoors and in damp areas. The uniform design of the body and internal parts makes the ZE door striker a very reliable and durable device.

The standard design of the open position lock is silver enamel painting. Other designs are available on request.

Specifications:

Mounting:

When choosing the required model for installation on the door, you need to make sure that the deadbolt reaches the floor. The open position stop ZE is installed on the door leaf at the maximum possible distance from the hinges (near the very edge of the door leaf). The head of the deadbolt must be flush with the bottom edge of the door.

It is very easy to lock the door in the desired position; it is necessary to press with your foot on the upper stop of the deadbolt of the models with an overhang of 25, 60, 75 and 90 mm, or on the metal shoulder of the lock with an overhang of 160 mm. The internal spring of the device will firmly lock the door in the open position.

To unlock the door, press the metal tab located under the upper stop. The piston will automatically release the spring to its original position and the door can move freely.

Dimensions:

The lineup:

Fop (fixing the open position) is fixing the door in the open position (it is important in places of large gathering of people, for example, shops, clinics, shopping centers). The convenience of this position is convenient in that you do not need to constantly open and close the doors, especially if a large flow of people passes through the day. And it is not always convenient for people to open doors, for example, mothers with several children or a stroller, a person with limited legal capacity, bringing a patient to a clinic on a gurney or wheelchair. Therefore, in such cases, one cannot do without using a special mechanical lock for holding the door in the open position.

The latches that hold the door open are divided into:

Non-disconnectable latches;

Built-in clamps;

Disconnectable latches;

DORMA mechanical door closer:

DORMA classic door closer (lever made in the form of a grasshopper foot).

This type of closer does not have a built-in fixation. But it is possible to install a special lever that will be responsible for holding the door in the open position. This lever can be supplied or purchased separately. For example, this lever is included in the kit together with the DORMA TS 68 series door closer. Also, the lever can be used to open and close the latch, or in permanent work of latching.

Levers with fixed open position for DORMA door closers:

Lever with an open door hold-open function without shutdown function for DORMA door closers of the TS71, TS72 series;

Lever with door hold-open device with switch-off and switch-on functions for DORMA door closers of the TS71, TS72, TS83 and TS73V series;

2. DORMA door closer with sliding channel.

This type of door closer does not have a built-in latch, and only the DORMA TS93 series door closer has a built-in position to hold the door open. The position adjustment is fixed with special screws.

In this case, the clamps are supplied as an additional option. The advantage of such a retainer is that they are mounted in a sliding channel. It is possible to install the retainer after installing the closer. There is no need to buy a new lever, as is necessary with a classic door closer. All types of fixing the open position of the sliding channel have the function of turning off and turning on the function.

FOP with sliding channel:

Mechanical lock for open position for DORMA TS90 series door closers;

Mechanical lock for open position for DORMA door closers of the TS91, 92 and 93 series;

Mechanical lock for open position for DORMA door closers of the ITS96 series;

3. DORMA floor closer.

This type of closer is equipped with a built-in FOP function with fixation at a certain angle of 90 or 105 degrees or without this function. The built-in latching function is not disabled (the BTS80 series door closer is an exception, the function is enabled and disabled with a screw).

Floor spring in open position from the manufacturer DORMA:

DORMA BTS60 with 90 degree open door position;

For door closers with FOP, the angle position can be adjusted from 80 to 120 degrees (except for BTS60, 65, 75V, 84 and their analogs).

In the position of the locking door in the open and closed position, it is recommended to use door closers with electromechanical hold-open. After all, it is not always necessary that the door be open, especially when it comes to an emergency, for example, a fire. In this case, to control this function, the closer is connected to a smoke detector or fire alarm. When the sensors are triggered, the door will automatically close.

Of the classic versions of door closers with an electromechanical function, we note the models of the manufacturer DORMA TS 73 EMR and TS 73 EMF (with a built-in smoke detector).

Sliding channel door closers - models from the manufacturer DORMA ITS 96 EMF, TS 93 EMR and TS 93 EMF.

Floor closers - models of the manufacturer DORMA of the BTS 80 EMB series.

The functioning of the doors is ensured by such structural details as handles, locks, hinges and latches. Open door stops are restraints that make it easier for occupants to move around the house. A small object in the interior will allow you to hold the door, preventing the door leaf from slamming, which often happens in the house at the most unexpected moment.

The product, which has long gained popularity as a useful thing, is widely represented on the market today. Holders of various shapes and design features are offered to the attention of buyers from a variety of materials.

Holder types

By the type of strengthening inside the interior, there are three main types:

• floor;
• wall;
• over the door.

Most restraints are installed on the floor as a stationary device for holding doors. They are available in a wide range of colors required for selection, so it is easy to purchase a design for a specific interior. Typically, the holder follows the color and shape of an existing or matched doorknob.

The undoubted advantages of floor elements include, first of all, their low cost compared to other commercially available options.

Floor door holders are also versatile, as they can be installed both indoors and outdoors. It is also convenient to fix the outer door facing the street with the lower blocker.

The floor bollard is easy to install and is sold, in almost any case, complete with a mounting kit. The floor is a level and secure plane that firmly holds the fixed element. Complementing the holder and serving as a damping element, a rubber or silicone gasket or foot softens the door opening process.

The main materials for the holders are aesthetic and attractive metal connections with copper, stainless steel and brass. In addition to stationary ones, there are portable floor holders. Parts are made of non-slip materials, wedge-shaped. While stationary holders prevent the doors from opening and closing completely, the main function of the portable elements is to fix the open door leaf.

The wall stopper is considered a suitable mechanism for those interiors where there is an expensive floor covering. Such a coating is easy to spoil externally, therefore, experts do not recommend resorting to the installation of floor holders in this case. Due to the design features of mounting the floor plane, it simply becomes impossible to fix the stopper. This is why in homes with massive doors made of hardwood and other durable and solid compounds, wall mount options are often used.

Drywall and similar modern building composites, on the contrary, are considered insufficiently reliable for fixing blockers. Important during installation is such a moment as the force that is applied when the doors are slammed. In order not to damage the wall, blockers are produced not only with hard, but also with predominantly soft parts.

Wall-mounted versions of blockers are slightly more expensive than floor stoppers, so they are also used in the interior quite often. Mounting of wall holders is carried out by analogy with floor holders, the installation diagram is the same.

The simplicity and ease of installation allows each owner to install the element on their own, without resorting to the help of specialists. Among the wall holders, the most common on the home goods market are:

• Emphasis. There is a bracket on one side of the holder, and a rubber shock absorber on the other.
• Latch. This mechanism is also two-sided, with the second side of the latch hooks on the door handle, preventing it from entering the opening and closing. A similar latch is mounted a little differently: a plate with a protrusion is fixed on the door leaf at the end at the bottom, a latch with a spring on the wall clings to the protrusion. Thus, the door remains always open.
• Door handle stops. They are used in the event that the holder has nowhere else to place, or it is necessary to avoid marks on the door leaf from the rubber part of the standard stop. The plastic stop is mounted on the wall at the level of the door handle.

Door bollards are available in a wide variety of types. They are also distinguished by the ease of installation - using a drill and two or three self-tapping screws. The main types of such clamps:

• Foldable with spring mechanism.
• Tape with fasteners attached on both sides.
• Retractable. They are a retractable shoe, adjustable by a plate on the side. Easily rises and falls with a foot movement.
• Sliding. They are mounted on the door, setting any desired opening angle. When fully plowed open, fixation occurs due to an additional hole in the groove.
• Emollients. Made of soft materials, fastened in the middle of the door leaf.

Main functions

Holders, stoppers and restraints installed in the interior ensure safe and comfortable use of door leaves. Any door can be either slightly opened or left completely open. At the same time, possible injuries are prevented, complete safety for children is achieved.

What is important for many pet owners, pets do not fall under the blows of the entrance and other doors in the house.

According to the necessary functions, the limiting mechanisms are divided into groups for fixing the position of the doors:

• Locking. The process is provided by such types as stops or latches. If you apply them, then you will not be able to open the door from the outside.
• Partial, that is, incomplete opening. Locking devices stop the movement of the web, leaving the opening half-open.
• Complete closure... Usually, floor mechanisms and door closers perform the role of locks for this position of the doors.
• As a limitation, and holding the door in a certain position (universal devices with magnetic properties are needed).

Design features

Design features allow you to achieve perfect functioning depending on the purpose of a particular door in the house. Therefore, when buying, it is important to dwell on the best option from all the existing ones and not get confused in their diversity.

The door is firmly held in position by means of a magnetic latch. The devices reliably protect doors from unexpected drafts. They are mounted on the wall or on the door itself. In this case, the side adjacent to the wall is provided with a soft gasket that does not leave marks and damage on the wall decoration.

Many of these devices are placed directly in the doorknob. Roller and ball mechanism prevents accidental opening, having a special groove in which the main part is hidden when closing. The foil device has a special tongue that fits inside the groove.

Furniture closers are most often used for compartment doors. Accessories such as door closers and furniture closers bring the door to a fully closed position. The device is a spring in a metal sheath. Technical oil or silicone fluid is poured between the capsule and the spring. Adjustment is provided by diaphragms and a valve system. Door closers are shock-absorbing devices that delay the movement of the panel, making it smoother until soft closing.

To choose the best option for your home, you need to evaluate the benefits of each type of door stopper. The price of the mechanism and the complexity of installation, comfort in use play a role. For each interior, you can choose an option in which safe operation is combined with the preservation of the wall and flooring without damage and marks on the door from the use of such devices in the form of potholes and dents.

Inexpensive floor holders can be installed both indoors and outdoors. They are produced as compact limiters made of metal and cork, which do not take up much space (sizes up to 7-8 cm), and anti-burglary devices. If they try to open the door, the metal part of the stop is pressed, which is powered by the battery. At the same time, a loud warning signal is emitted.

Such a stop has two functions - stop and protection against thieves.

For a glass door or plastic sheet, interior partitions, a magnetic latch is a good choice. The latch stops the door due to the interaction of the magnet and the metal part. The ease of use of such a stopper is obvious, although installation is not as simple as with floor holders or soft options.

For door holders, the working unit is attached to the door leaf itself, therefore they are used for entrance and interior doors. Many options do not require fastening, since they only prevent the canvas from slamming. Folding holders called "goat's leg" are able to hold any door, including the entrance one, the stops are long enough to create a reliable structure. They are chosen for solid wood or aluminum surfaces. The stop is chosen if you want to keep the door open.
