ABSTRACT:
A door stop wedge is mounted into a receptacle recessed in the floor inside an inwardly-opening door. A detent keeps the wedge normally in an inoperative position within the receptacle and releasable by downward foot pressure on a tab connected to the locking arm for such detent. The wedge is spring-loaded to pop up into operating position when the detent is released. Foot pressure on the back of the wedge will cause it to retract into the receptacle and the detent to spring back into locking position.
