- Porsche 914 (1970-1976)
Restore controlled, secure door movement with this OE Match Door Stop, designed for compatible Porsche applications.
Fits:
- Porsche 914 (1970-1976)
Diagram Ref No 5
The door stop, also commonly referred to as a door check, door stay or door check strap, is fitted between the door and vehicle body. Its purpose is to control the door as it opens, limit excessive travel and provide defined holding positions so the door does not swing freely.
Every time the door is opened or closed, the door stop is subjected to mechanical load. Over years of use, its internal mechanism, pivot points and mounting areas can wear. This can result in clicking, cracking or popping noises, excessive door movement or a door that will no longer remain securely in an open position.
A worn door stop should not be ignored. Uncontrolled door movement can place additional stress on hinges, mounting points and surrounding bodywork, particularly when the vehicle is parked on a slope or exposed to strong wind.
This OE Match Door Stop provides a high-quality replacement for a worn, damaged or ineffective original component.
What This Product Does:
- Controls the door as it opens and closes.
- Limits the maximum opening travel of the door.
- Prevents the door from opening excessively.
- Provides resistance to uncontrolled door movement.
- Helps hold the door at defined open positions.
- Makes entering and exiting the vehicle more convenient.
- Helps prevent the door swinging freely on slopes.
- Reduces the risk of sudden door movement in windy conditions.
- Helps protect hinges and surrounding bodywork from excessive movement.
- Supports smooth and predictable door operation.
- Replaces a worn, noisy or damaged door check mechanism.
- Provides an OE Match replacement for compatible Porsche applications.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Clicking when opening or closing the door.
- Loud cracking or popping noises.
- Door movement becoming jerky.
- Door no longer holding itself open.
- Door closing unexpectedly on a slope.
- Door swinging too freely.
- Excessive movement before the door stop engages.
- Door opening further than it should.
- Increased resistance during door movement.
- Grinding or scraping from the door check mechanism.
- Loose door stop mounting points.
- Visible wear around the mechanism.
- Bent or distorted door stop components.
- Corrosion.
- Excessive play in the mechanism.
- Door movement causing stress or movement around the mounting area.
- A door stop may be a relatively small component, but it performs an important mechanical function every time the door is used.
- When operating correctly, it controls the weight and momentum of the door and prevents it from swinging freely. Once worn, the mechanism may no longer provide sufficient resistance or defined holding positions.
- A door that will not stay open can be inconvenient and potentially hazardous, particularly when entering or leaving the vehicle on an incline. The door may unexpectedly swing closed onto the occupant.
- Conversely, a door that swings outward too freely can strike another vehicle, a wall or another nearby object.
- A defective door stop can also place additional loads on the door hinges and mounting points. Continued operation of a severely worn or loose mechanism may contribute to damage around the mounting area.
- Replacing a worn OE Match Door Stop helps restore controlled door travel, secure holding positions and predictable opening and closing.
