A Guide to Choosing the Perfect Door Stops for Your Home
Door stops might seem like a minor detail, but they play a key role in protecting your walls, doors, and furniture. Whether you're fitting out a modern interior or refreshing a heritage home, the right door stop can add both practicality and style. At The Blue Space, we offer an impressive range of door hardware to suit every taste and requirement.
Why Door Stops Are Essential
A door stop is more than just a functional item. It prevents damage to your walls, skirting boards, and doors by limiting their range of movement. This simple addition can save you from costly repairs while keeping your home looking immaculate. They’re particularly important in high-traffic areas where doors are frequently opened and closed.
For exterior doors, robust solutions like deadbolts offer enhanced security, while interior door stops protect delicate surfaces without compromising the aesthetic.
Types of Door Stops
There are several styles of door stops available, each designed to serve specific needs. Here’s a quick rundown:
Wall-Mounted Stops
Ideal for areas with limited floor space, wall-mounted stops attach directly to the wall to cushion the impact of the door. They’re a popular choice for modern homes and work beautifully with matte black door handles to achieve a sleek, contemporary look.
Floor-Mounted Stops
These are fixed to the floor and are great for doors that open fully. Available in a variety of finishes, they pair seamlessly with brushed brass door handles for a cohesive design.
Spring Stops
A flexible option, spring stops are often used in bedrooms and playrooms where softer solutions are preferred. These can complement interior door handles with subtle elegance.
Matching Door Stops with Your Hardware
When selecting a door stop, consider how it will blend with your existing hardware. At The Blue Space, we carry a curated selection of gun metal door handles and hardware and other finishes to ensure you achieve a harmonious aesthetic throughout your home.
For those seeking something timeless, our chrome door handles offer a classic option that pairs beautifully with polished stainless steel door stops.
Installation Tips
Fitting a door stop is straightforward, but there are a few considerations to keep in mind:
-
Placement: Install the stop where it will effectively absorb the door’s movement without being intrusive.
-
Height and Clearance: Ensure the stop does not interfere with the door's swing or other hardware, like hinges.
-
Durability: Opt for materials that can withstand daily use, especially in busy areas like entryways.
