ABSTRACT:
A wedge shaped security door block having a door engaging side raked at a low angle with respect to a planar floor engaging side. A device is provided at the apex end of the wedge for manually and selectively truncating the wedge so that it can be used with doors of different thicknesses and doors hung at different spacings between the lower edge of the door and the floor. When the floor is uncarpeted, the door engaging side is preferably inclined at an angle between about 5 and 7 degrees with respect to the floor engaging side and when the floor is carpeted, the angle is preferably between about 7 and 10 degrees to prevent the lower edge of the door from passing over the wedge too far, or passing over it entirely.
