Ives FS18S Short Security Stop Black Finish

Product Description

The IVES FS18S is a short security stop finished in black, designed to limit door travel and protect walls, baseboards, and adjacent surfaces from impact damage. This type of door stop is a standard component in commercial and residential door hardware assemblies, installed by finish carpenters, general contractors, and facility maintenance professionals. The FS18S measures 4.25 inches in length, 2 inches in width, and 2 inches in height, and ships as a single unit. At 0.5 pounds, it is a lightweight, low-profile hardware accessory suited for a wide range of door applications.

The FS18S short security stop is appropriate for interior door installations in both residential and light commercial settings. Security stops of this type are commonly used where standard floor or wall stops are impractical, providing a compact solution to control door swing and prevent hardware or surface damage. The black finish coordinates with dark architectural hardware schemes. It is sold individually and is suitable for single-door retrofit or new construction installations.
