The Benefits of a Doorstop

DK Hardware -

Though often overlooked, doorstops are crucial in residential and commercial buildings. No matter how careful you are with opening the door, you need doorstops to avoid doing severe damage to your door and the surrounding area. A sudden strong gust of wind or too much exertion and your door handle can put a huge dent in your wall or door. While its primary function is to prevent the wall from getting dinged, it also brings other benefits to your home. So, let's examine the various benefits of installing a doorstop.

Protecting Your Door and Wall

A doorstop's primary and most obvious benefit is protecting your door and wall. A door with a smooth, high-quality hinge will likely swing open at an incredible speed, causing the door side or door handle to collide with the adjacent wall with force. The wall may develop dents where the door side or handle is striking, giving it a poor appearance. Installing a doorstop to your door or wall helps prevent such issues from happening.

Reduce Maintenance Costs

If you haven't installed a doorstop, you might be surprised to know the time and expense required to repair the damage. When a door is repeatedly slammed into a wall, the repercussions go beyond mere paint chipping. The impact can cause damage to the wall underneath that. Fixing that issue requires a series of steps by the maintenance personnel, including applying mud, patching, and sanding the area. After it's done, the personnel must repaint the affected parts of the wall to match the existing color. This pursuit can be challenging, not to mention achieving the correct finish.

Adding to Decor

While most people view doorstops as useful objects that perform the important function of safeguarding doors, there is more to it. They can also contribute to the aesthetic of an indoor area, enhancing the visual appeal. Take, for instance, wall-mounted door stops crafted with a polished bright gold finish – it can seamlessly complement the overall look of your door and doorway. Today, you can easily find doorstops in various finishes, allowing you to elevate the appearance of a space while protecting your door and wall.

Increasing Your Door's Security

Some varieties of door stop, such as security doorstops, can help enhance the security of your doorway. These doorstops are meticulously crafted to cater to high-traffic scenarios where doors might be used repeatedly or get rough treatment. For example, you can consider the instance of a restaurant kitchen door. It may be swung open with force numerous times throughout the day. Security doorstop features a durable material around its stud that prevents the door from being damaged when it collides with the wall. Additionally, these doorstops tend to be flame resistant, ensuring their resilience even in extreme conditions. All these characteristics make your doorway more secure, amplifying the value of your door.
