Gravity-Assisted Floor-Mounted Hinged Door Holder
A floor-mounted door holder for holding a door in an open position. The door holder has a base plate for attachment on a floor, and a top plate hinged to the base plate. The hinged attachment provides a pivot for the top plate, which is weight-biased to tilt toward the floor. The door holder is typically installed near a wall with the hinge facing outward, so that when the door is opened and moved toward the wall and over the door holder, the door flattens the top plate. After the door passes over the top plate, the top plate tilts back to its bias position and its upper edge engages the door.
