door stopper
A door stopper (also door buffer ) is a device that an opening door, especially its handle , hits against the wall or furniture . It is attached so that the door can still be opened as wide as possible.
A simple form of doorstop that is often used is that of a round or square block made of rubber or plastic that is attached to the floor with a screw.
Simple plastic stoppers with a hard foam inlay that are glued to the wall are called bumblebees.
Heavy, disc-shaped door stoppers, usually made of metal or stone , can do without fixing . They are coated with rubber on the underside and edge, hardly slip due to their heavy weight and catch the door with their soft edge.
Door stoppers can also be attached to the wall so that the door with the handle or the door leaf hits a block. In the latter case, short rods are usually used, which are about the depth of the door handle and carry a rubber block at the free end. They are usually installed inconspicuously and less disruptively in the upper door area.
The type of doorstop used depends on the circumstances of the room. The wall can be blocked by a piece of furniture. Often you don't want to damage the floor or you can't drill on it because there is underfloor heating underneath .
