The basic design of hinged pin door stops consist of two rubber-tipped "legs."
Both the legs serve their own purpose. One leg keeps the door, stop from
freely rotating on the pin. This leg is curved back on the door itself.
Threaded through a retaining barrel, the other leg of the stop is
adjusted in length. The second leg is pointed in the opposite direction
towards the wall so that when the door is opened this leg will
eventually contact the wall and prevent the door from swinging.
