A collapsible door wedge characterized by: a channel shaped base member; a channel shaped incline member pivotally attached at one end to an end of the base member; a prop member pivotally attached to the other end of the base member; and a quick release latch mechanism attached to the incline member for retaining the prop member in its propping position. The incline member has a lower surface provided with a pair of downwardly extending stops defining a latching space receptive to an end of the prop member. The latch mechanism includes a shaft extending through a chamber of one of the stops, a striker attached to one end of the shaft, a knob attached to the other end of the shaft, a washer for supporting the latch mechanism, and a spring disposed around the shaft for biasing the striker towards the latching space.
