What are the dimensions of your door stoppers?
Our adhesive door stoppers have varying lengths that range from 4.2cm to 8.6cm. Each door stopper has a base diameter of either 4cm or 5cm. Each product listing has an image of the door stop showing its dimensions.
What surfaces would it stick to?
The door stops stick well to wood, glass, vinyl, tiles, metal and a lot more surfaces.
If the stop is stuck to the bottom of a door, would it be possible to remove it without causing damage?
If the door is solid, then the only issue would be to the paint or varnish on the door. If the door is anything but solid I think it would be highly unlikely, given the strength of the adhesive from the start, that it could be removed without damaging the door although a very long, thin sharp knife might work.
Do they come with screws and hole too?
They come with 3M VHB (Very High Bonding) Adhesive pads - not the ordinary adhesive pads
Will it withstand all the knocks if stuck down to a tiled floor as opposed to skirting?
We purchased these for tiled walls to stop ornate door handles marking new tiles. They look good and are still serving the purpose we wanted them for. Purchased and hung easter 2019.
What comes in the box?
2 door stoppers are supplied in one box with an extra 3M adhesive, and 3M surface preparation wipes.
I would like to know if it's recommended to use the Door Stop with 3M Adhesive in wet areas as showers. Does the humidity affects the durability of the adhesive?
Yes, the door stops can be used in areas where there’s moisture. The 3M VHB adhesive pad is built to seal out water (https://www.3m.co.uk/3M/en_GB/vhb-tapes-uk/)
Prior to installing, care must be taken to make sure the surface is clean and free of water so as not to interfere with the adhesive bonding process.
