Rockwood 494 Automatic Door Holder & Stop | Hands-Free Door Stay
The Rockwood 494 Automatic Door Holder is a premium architectural solution designed for facilities that require frequent, hands-free door holding. Featuring a sophisticated roller-and-hook mechanism, this device automatically engages when the door is pushed into the holder and releases with a simple pull. Crafted from solid cast brass, the Rockwood 494 is the ideal choice for hospital corridors, school entrances, and busy office suites where efficiency and wall protection are paramount.
Hands-Free Convenience & Industrial Durability
- Automatic Engagement: The "push-to-hold, pull-to-release" design allows users to secure doors in the open position without using their hands—perfect for staff carrying equipment or pushing carts.
- Dual-Function Roller Strike: The strike can be installed at the bottom of the door to double as a foot pull, providing an extra level of convenience and accessibility.
- Precision Alignment Design: The innovative screw hole layout allows for exact alignment during the installation process, ensuring the roller engages perfectly with the hook before permanent attachment.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Built from robust cast brass, this holder is engineered for longevity in high-frequency commercial applications.
