Doorstoppers
A doorstopper is a practical solution that keeps your door exactly where you want it. It also protects both the door and the wall from scuffs and damage. At Biltema, you’ll find a wide selection of doorstops to suit different needs and spaces.
Use a practical doorstopper to keep doors open
A doorstopper is a must-have in any home. It helps keep doors open when you need them to stay put – whether you're carrying shopping in from the car or simply airing out your space. A doorstop can prevent doors from slamming shut by accident. We've all heard that annoying bang, but with a reliable doorstopper – whether wall-mounted or floor-mounted – you can easily avoid it.
A doorstop protects your walls from scuffs
A wall-mounted doorstopper doesn’t just help keep the door open. It also protects your walls from scuffs and marks. When a door swings open, it can easily hit the wall, leaving dents, scratches, or even holes. This can be a real issue during draughts or in busy households with kids who aren’t always careful with how hard they open the door. A doorstop is designed to catch the door before it hits the wall, helping you prevent damage and keep your space looking tidy.
Protect your door with a doorstopper
A wall-mounted or floor-mounted doorstopper isn’t just a practical helper that keeps doors open and shields your walls. It also protects the door itself. When a door slams shut, it can easily end up with scratches or dents. But with a doorstop in place, you can avoid that kind of damage.
The doorstopper acts as a soft barrier, stopping the door before it hits anything hard. This means your door is protected from unnecessary marks, chips, and scuffs.
Doorstops are effective both indoors and out
One of the great things about a doorstopper is its versatility. Whether you need to keep a heavy exterior door open or just want to stop a lightweight living room door from swinging shut, there's a doorstop to suit the job.
Ever struggled to carry something heavy through the door while it keeps closing behind you? A sturdy outdoor doorstopper is the answer. Designed to withstand the elements, it keeps your door open when you need both hands free.
But it’s not just outside doors that benefit. Interior doors – especially lighter ones that tend to slam – can also be made safer and quieter with the right doorstop. A compact, lightweight doorstopper helps prevent slamming, reduces noise, and protects your door and surroundings from unnecessary damage.
How to use your new doorstopper
Using a doorstopper is quick and easy. First, decide where you want to place it. If you're using a floor doorstop, simply position it where needed. For a wall-mounted doorstopper, you'll need to screw it into place.
It’s a good idea to test the position before final installation. Open the door and check if the doorstopper catches it as intended. If it does, great – you’re good to go. If not, you may need to adjust the placement slightly.

FAQ
How does a doorstopper work?
A doorstopper works by creating a barrier that prevents the door from moving or slamming shut. It can either hold the door open by blocking its movement or protect the wall from damage when the door opens. Doorstops come in a range of designs to suit different needs.
What’s the difference between wall-mounted and floor-mounted doorstoppers?
Wall-mounted doorstoppers are attached to the wall and help absorb the impact when the door opens, while floor-mounted doorstops sit on the floor to physically block the door’s movement. Wall-mounted options are often more discreet.
Which doorstopper should I choose?
It depends on your needs. If your main goal is to protect the wall, a wall-mounted doorstopper is ideal. If you want to keep a door open, a floor-mounted model may work better. Also consider the weight and type of door – heavier doors will need a sturdier doorstop, while lighter ones can get by with a smaller version.
