Patio door stops are silent helpers and useful tools that are readily available for purchase. Door stops serve several purposes including preventing patio doors from making dents or damage to walls and holding doors open.

Contrary to popular belief, patio door stops come in various styles and each one serves a different function. It is, therefore, necessary for you to select the correct style. Below, you'll find a list of the common styles of patio door stops. By weighing the pros and cons of each style, you'll be able to get the right stopper for your home.

What are the most popular types of patio door stops?

Magnetic

A magnetic patio door stop is a floor or wall-mounted device. It makes use of a magnet's power in holding a door open. It's a simple solution as it doesn't require any more than a single step in using this particular form of door stop. It's also appropriate for standard patio doors. A magnetic stopper, however, won't be enough in holding off a heavy door unless it utilizes a strong magnet.

Regardless of whether you choose a floor or wall mounted patio door stop, a magnetic unit will be able to protect walls from hung doors that close independently and swing open. A door stopper with a 3-inch projection can also stop a doorknob from banging and making dents to walls.

Rigid Stop

A rigid patio door stop is also common. It screws directly into a wall's trim. It comes with a rubber tip, which helps in preventing the door from inflicting damage to the door stopper. Although this style is excellent at protecting walls, it can't hold patio doors open. If you think that is what you are after, then choose a solid brass patio door stop instead of a plated one as it is of higher quality and it offers resistance to wear and tear.

Spring Stop

A spring patio door stop is basically the same as the rigid type. Their only difference is their construction. With a spring stop, it consists of a spring instead of a solid piece. A spring style patio door stop is cheaper compared to other types, but it carries myriads of downsides. Its fragile construction often leads to frequent replacements as it easily sustains damages and becomes dent over time.

Hinge Pin Stop

Another popular door stop style is the hinge pin, which is great if there's no floorboard, baseboard nor decorative trim within the area where it'll be installed. Most patio door stop styles are screwed into decorative trims and they leave screw holes that are visible. Hinge pin stops, on the other hand, screw into the hinges of doors rather than on a floorboard.

Hinge pin stops make use of a two-leg construction that prevents doors from rotating to the length that's allowed by the hinge. The rubber tip also prevents damage to doors.

If you have kids, patio door stops will prove to be even more useful as they prevent the hands of children from being slammed together with heavy patio doors.
