ABSTRACT:
A metal holster for allowing a magnetic doorstop to be held in place so that the holster can be attached to handtrucks. The magnetic doorstop can be triangular wedge shaped with at least one exterior side portion having a magnetic surface. The holsters can be made from aluminum and have a metal portion inside for attracting the magnetic doorstop, or the holster can be completely made from a magnetically attractable metal. The holster can be rectangular box with an opening in one side, and a string bent tab inside for further keeping the doorstop within the box. The box can include a ledge portion such as a pin across the opening. An expandable clip allows the holster/box to be attached side legs and members of the handtruck. Another embodiment takes advantage of a pre-existing side leg and cross-member cavity in the handtruck. The magnetic doorstop can be sized to fit within the cavity and be attracted to the metal of the handtruck itself, or a metal strip can be attached to the side leg of an aluminum handtruck for attracting the magnetic doorstop. Additional features such as a ledge pin, and/or spring tab inside the cavity can further support the doorstop.
