A door stop which includes a bracket that is mountable on a face of a door
and has an elongate leg pivotally connected adjacent one end thereof to
the bracket. The leg has a laterally extending floor engagable foot on
the other end thereof that slopes downwardly in a direction toward the
floor and terminates in an edge that digs into the floor as the door is
being force open. The leg is squeezingly engaged between a pair of
grommets on the bracket which holds the leg is a raised position. A
tension spring biases the foot from its raised position in a direction
toward the floor. An actuator is mounted on the door and has a hand
engagable portion disposed adjacent the door knob. The actuator is a rod
that is reciprocally mounted on the door and spring biased to a neutral
position. The rod upon being pushed downwardly engages and released the
leg so that it is free to snap downwardly into its floor engaging door
blocking position. Optionally there is tie strap that extends downwardly
from the bracket and terminates in a portion that projects under a lower
edge of the door.
