What a deadbolt misses

A deadbolt holds the lock. Nothing holds the door.

A solid kick does not pick your lock, it splits the frame around it. The deadbolt stays locked while the door swings open, because nothing was bracing the door itself against the force.

A security bar adds that brace. Wedged from the handle down to the floor, it turns a push into a dead stop and spreads the force into the ground instead of the frame. That is the gap a deadbolt leaves, and the one this closes.

Lock the door, then brace it. One holds the bolt, the other holds the door.

How it works

Wedge it under the handle. The force goes into the floor.

Set the padded top under the door handle and the foot against the floor. A shove drives straight down into the ground rather than into the frame and strike plate, which is where a kicked door normally fails.

Because nothing is fitted to the door, you can set it on a front door at night, a bedroom door, or a hotel door, then lift it away in a second.

Adjust, wedge, done.

1

Measure the gap

Extend the bar to reach from the handle to the floor, or to fill the track.

2

Lock the length

Set the adjustable length so it sits firm.

3

Wedge it in

Place the padded end under the handle, foot on the floor, or drop it in the track.

4

Test the door

Push the door to confirm the bar holds it solid.

No screws, no drilling. It braces in place and folds away when not in use.
For renters and travelers

Extra hold for tonight, packed away by morning.

Nothing is fixed to the door, so it works in any rental or hotel and leaves no trace. Keep one by the front door and another that folds into your bag for the road.

Layer your defense

A braced door, and an alarm on the glass.

The bar holds the door against a hard push. The TremShield Alarm covers the windows and glass doors, sounding at 125dB the second they are tested.

Good to know

Questions, answered calmly

It wedges from under the handle down to the floor, so force on the door is driven into the ground rather than into the frame and strike plate.
It is adjustable in length to fit standard interior and exterior hinged doors, at home or in a hotel room.
No. There are no screws or brackets. You set the length and wedge it in place, then remove it whenever you like.
The contact ends are padded to grip without marking the floor or the door handle.
Yes. It collapses down to fit a suitcase or car, which makes it popular for hotels and short stays.
No. This one is a jammer brace for hinged doors, wedged from the handle to the floor. For a sliding patio door you want the Sliding Glass Door Security Bar, which lays in the bottom track so the panel cannot slide or be lifted out. Different door, different problem.
