What I would suggest as a 1st experiment is to use 1 doorstop with as big a washer you can find. I lately found that mine was softer perhaps not due to the length increased due to glueing, but due to a smaller washer which I had used. The doorstop therefore had less of its bulk to compress resulting in softer behaviour. With the bigger washer it was stiffer again. The stiffest I got was with 2 stops end-end.
So try the single stop with big washer first as a reference point.
