noun
A device that prevents a door from slamming shut due to wind or drafts. Common in homes and offices.
風でドアがバタンと閉まらないように、煽り止めを付けた。
I installed a doorstop so the door wouldn't slam shut from the wind.
A more general loanword for any door-holding device, while 煽り止め specifically prevents slamming from drafts.
Compound of 煽り (あおり, 'gust' or 'slamming') and 止め (どめ, 'stop'). The reading どめ is a rendaku form of 止め (とめ).
