PDQ 719005 Door Stop Arm: Heavy-Duty Cast Iron Series Hardware

The PDQ 719005 Door Stop Arm is a premium, high-impact solution engineered exclusively for the PDQ 7100 and 7101 Series heavy-duty door closers. Often referred to as a "Dead Stop" arm, this component is designed for the most demanding environments where doors are prone to being thrown open with excessive force.

Unlike standard arms that rely solely on hydraulic backcheck, the 719005 features a physical, mechanical stop built into the arm assembly. This protects the door, hinges, and frame from structural damage, making it the ideal choice for exterior school doors, hospital corridors, and industrial entryways.

The Specialized Hexagon Attachment

Precision is vital when replacing commercial door hardware. The PDQ 719005 is distinguished by its hexagon-shaped attachment point where the arm connects to the closer pinion.

This hex-drive interface is specific to the cast iron 7100 series "Iron Horse" closers. It provides a high-torque, non-slip connection that can withstand the massive energy of a heavy door hitting a hard stop—a task that would strip or round out standard square-drive hardware.

Why Choose the PDQ 719005 from Doorways Plus?

At DoorwaysPlus.com, we recommend the 719005 Stop Arm for any high-traffic opening where a floor or wall-mounted stop is either impractical or a tripping hazard.

• Physical Barrier Protection: The integrated stop provides a rigid limit to the door's opening swing, effectively "stopping" the door before it can damage the adjacent wall or the closer itself.
• Cast Iron Series Durability: This arm is forged to handle the extreme weight and power of the 7101 closer (Sizes 1–6).
  
• Vandal Resistance: By mounting on the push side of the door in a parallel configuration, the hardware is less exposed to tampering and provides a cleaner architectural look.
• OEM Quality: Genuine PDQ Hardware ensures that your Grade 1 rating is maintained, keeping your facility up to code and reducing long-term maintenance costs.

Identification Tip: Before ordering, verify that your closer pinion is hexagonal. If your closer uses a square pinion, you are likely using a 3100 or 5300 series and will require a different model. The 719005 is the mandatory choice for hex-pinion cast iron units.
