Is there a door hinge that will stop the door at 90 degrees?

I have a full veiw door that when opened all the way hits the window sill. It’s going to break the glass one day. A door stop isn’t the answer as the only type that would work is one screwed the floor and that becomes a trip hazzard. I haven’t had much luck with hinge pin stop either. The ideal answer would be a hinge that limits the door to 90 degree opening.

There are 90 degree door stoppers that go on the hinge of the door. It looks like an elbow, with 2 rubber bumpers, that is part of the hinge, so the answer is yes. The actual hinge does not stop at 90 degrees, but the bumper stops the door.

I dont know about a hinge that will but they make a doorstop that mounts on your hinge that will do the trick hope this helps

More than likely a hinge with a stop at 90 like that is just going to tear up the jamb and door. People opening the door will swing it open and think it should go further than it will. The screws will pull out or break. Hinge pin stops is the only way to go. Put them on all hinges.

try a chain and spring like they use on storm doors might look funny on a normal door but might be a option
