ABSTRACT:
A support device pivotally supports a resilient body on the leading surface of a sliding door frame in a manner whereby the gravitational force on the body moves the body between a sliding door and the frame. The body is manually movable away from the door and the frame, so that the body is positioned by gravitational force in abutment with the leading surface of the door when the door is closed. This permits the door to be securely closed with its leading edge in abutment with the frame. The body is interposed by gravitational force between the leading edge of the door and the frame when the door is open thereby preventing the door from closing fully by preventing the leading edge of the door from abutting the frame and thus protecting hands from being crushed between the door and the frame.
