Will this hold a heavy door open over hardwood?

Yes. I have used them on laminate floors and they hold well.Doors with automatic closers may be an issue; currently (on tile floors) I 'double up' and use two of them in order to overcome the spring mechanism.Good door stops.

Yes, I think so. However, if there was a strong breeze it would depend on how heavy the door is and how strong the breeze.

Yes. These doorstops have a rubber base and will not slide. They are solid and have a good weight to them.

Not much. If you have a threshold or a carpet I don't think it will work. My door was too high due to the threshold so it wouldn't work.

The door I used it on was a hollow wood door and it worked just fine. I doubt it would work on a heavy security door.

It can depending on how thick your door is. I screwed it to the top of the door (there are predrilled holes in the holder) so I wouldn't have to worry about it.

It is not designed to be hung on the back of the door as the hooks are closed and would not allow the door to close. It is very strong! Mine holds heavy duvets, blankets, towels and many other things!

Yes. The clamp is very sturdy and would clamp on to most anywhere you put it. But remember...you cannot close the door with the clamp attached.

I'm sure it could be. But I would be sure the door is solid wood. If it's hollow like most doors, the extra weight won't hold after awhile.

Yes, it will hold the weight. A replaced my wooden top with a piece of granite, the same size,along with two pieces of granite on the bottom to level out the weight.

The bracket mounts on inside of door so width is not an issue, but the weight of the door could be.

My door is about 50 lbs or so. It is a 7 foot door and thicker than normal (1 5/8") so it is robust! A shorter door, same weight, might work.

yes, but if the door is too heavy which mine was, it will droop down and not return properly...follow thier door weight guide. Good people to deal with..no hassel on returns.

It probably could be used to pull it up but not sure how it would work for lowering door.

Gosh, that's tricky! I'm not sure but this little guy has rubber grips so on my slippery metal door casing it holds a really heavy door open! It's inexpensive enough to give it a try!

Hello Eliana, I would say it would but not on a thick heavy carper. My own experience has been 100% with tile/hard wood and it is excellent for those floors.

Yes. It is a heavy duty pincer like mechanism. We were unsure about it at first, but really holds well. Even difficult to put on at first due to the pinching strength, challenging to open to put on door frame. But works well.

This isn't designed to hold a door. The bottom surface will slide on a hard-surface floor even if it is accidentally kicked or something heavy bumps into it. It is a freestanding alternative to a mounted baseboard door stop or hinge-pin door stop.

That is what I wanted to do but unfortunately the door is too heavy and it tips over. I ended up having to mount it as you would not be able to keep anything in it and open the door.
