Cabinet Friction Stays & Door Stops for Electrical Enclosures
Reaking friction stays (door stops) hold electrical enclosure and equipment doors open at any angle, preventing them from swinging shut on operators. A friction pivot locks the stay in position, so there is no need for a separate catch or prop.
The TX series covers short, long and adjustable stays in white zinc plated steel and SUS304 stainless steel, with load ratings matched to door weight from compact control boxes to tall distribution cabinets.

FAQ
Q: What is a cabinet friction stay used for?
A: It holds an enclosure or equipment door open at any angle, so the door stays in position while the operator works inside the cabinet.
Q: What is the difference between a friction stay and a door stop?
A: A friction stay supports the door and holds it open at a set angle; a door stop only limits how far the door opens.
Q: What materials are the friction stays made of?
A: White zinc plated steel as standard, with SUS304 stainless steel versions for damp, outdoor or corrosive environments.
Q: How do I choose the right stay for my door?
A: Match the stay to the door weight and opening angle — send us your door size and weight and we will recommend the correct model.
Q: Do you offer OEM or custom friction stays?
A: Yes — Reaking welcomes OEM and custom orders for length, finish and mounting configuration.
