Ives FS555BLK5 Kick Down Door Holder 5 in Black

Product Description

The IVES FS555BLK5 is a kick down door holder designed to hold open interior doors in commercial and residential applications. The unit features a foot-operated kick down mechanism that engages at the base of the door, securing it in the open position without the need for wall or floor anchors. The holder ships in a black finish and measures 6.9 inches in length, 3.3 inches in width, and 1.8 inches in height, with an overall arm length of 5 inches. Weighing 0.9 pounds, it is compact and well-suited for high-traffic doorways where a reliable hold-open solution is required.

This kick down door holder is appropriate for standard hinged interior doors in light commercial offices, schools, healthcare facilities, and residential settings. It mounts directly to the door face and requires no floor hardware, making it a practical choice for installations where floor-mounted stops are not feasible. The black finish coordinates with standard door hardware in dark or neutral architectural schemes.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, door hardware installer, or qualified general contractor.

Verify that the kick down foot engages the floor surface cleanly and releases without binding before returning the door to service.
