Review on 🚪 Enhance Your Décor with National Hardware N336-354 1936 Floor Door Stops in Solid Brass Antique Bronze by Mary Crawford

This is a great product but I have to deduct a star as it doesn't come entirely without instructions. I even went to the National Hardware website and there's nothing useful there either! Luckily I'm quite mechanically inclined and pride myself on having quite a bit of common sense (IMHO of course), I figured it out after careful study. You will need to drill TWO holes to install this stop. One hole is for a screw that goes through the hole in the front of the rubber bumper (pictured) and the other hole is for the pin that comes with the hardware (not pictured). This "twisted needle" is silver in color and is threaded on one end. You screw the pin into the bottom of the fence (through the hole in the rubber bumper) until it stops. Of course, if you are drilling into concrete, stone, or even ceramic tile, you must use masonry drill bits, as general-purpose drill bits for wood or metal will NOT work here. If you've never used a masonry drill before, there are some good YouTube videos that show you how. You will need to drill a 1/4" hole in the floor for the stud and a 5/16" hole for the screw and its plastic insert (if the floor is concrete or stone). If the bottom is wood, the screw hole will be smaller since you won't use the plastic screw bit. You simply drill a small hole that will act as a "pilot hole" for the screw. Regardless of the floor material, the rear hole for the grub screw should be 1/4 inch. By the way, make sure you drill both holes deep enough for what will fit (pin, screw, and plastic insert). I poured some slow curing epoxy in both holes before pressing the plastic screw insert into the bottom panel. I hammered the insert all the way into the hole with a hammer and then cut the insert flush with the top. Gender. I put a pin in the rear hole and then put the screw through the plug into the plastic insert and tightened it up. I ended up using a small ratchet with a large screwdriver bit and the screw was inserted very tightly into the socket. After the screw firmly entered the plane with the stop, the stop was reliable and did not move anywhere! Between the screw/insert and the epoxy I used in both holes, I'm sure this iron will last MY life! Lp someone a little like you get NOTHING with the stop per se.
