The placement of doorstops depends on the type of door and specific circumstances. Here are some common guidelines:

Wall-mounted doorstop:

Install them on the wall that the door will hit when fully opened. This will prevent damage to the wall and door.

Floor-mounted doorstop:
Place them directly on the floor, aligned with the path the door will take when it opens. Make sure their placement does not obstruct the door from opening fully.

Hinge pin stop:
These devices can be installed on door hinges. Their function is to limit the opening angle of the door. Please be sure to follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions for proper installation.

Magnetic doorstop:

If using a magnetic doorstop, attach the magnetic base to the wall and the corresponding magnet to the door. Adjust their positions so that they align when the door is opened.

Disciples:

If using a wedge doorstop, place it under the door when you want to keep the door open or prevent it from closing.

Consider the direction of the door’s swing:

When deciding on the installation location of the doorstop, be sure to consider the direction the door will swing. Ensure that the doorstop will not obstruct the normal use of the door.

Safety Precautions:

Ensure that the doorstop is placed in a position that will not cause a tripping hazard or obstruct the passage.

By following these guidelines, you can effectively place doorstops to protect your door and the surrounding area.
