National Hardware N184-218 Kickdown Door Stop Brass

Product Description

The NATIONAL HARDWARE N184-218 is a kickdown door stop designed to hold doors open in a fixed position by deploying a zinc stop foot that contacts the floor. The stop features a brass finish and mounts directly to the door face with screws, keeping the installation clean and secure. With a 5-inch projection, it holds the door clear of walls and trim in standard residential and light commercial applications. The zinc construction resists corrosion and holds up to repeated use. This type of hardware is typically installed by finish carpenters, general contractors, or maintenance technicians.

The N184-218 is suited for interior door applications in residential and light commercial settings where a floor-contact door hold-open is preferred over a wall or baseboard stop. The kickdown mechanism deploys and retracts by foot, making it practical in high-traffic doorways such as hallways, utility rooms, and storage areas. The screw mount base attaches to the face of the door, and the brass finish coordinates with common door hardware finishes in residential builds and renovations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with common hand tools using the provided screw mount pattern on the door face.

No special trade licensing is required, though installation should follow the door and hardware manufacturer guidelines.
