Checkmate® Stops & Holders -- Rixson Specialty Door Controls - Building Product Manufacturer in Sweets Network

| | |

Overhead stops are used to protect door assemblies. They cut down the wear and tear of frequency, closing mechanisms, wind gusts, abuse and vandalism. By limiting the door travel, they can add years to the life of the door, frame, and hanging means.

Overhead holders and friction stays add convenience for the end user who already appreciates the need for the overhead stop.
