Locking system and use thereof
A locking system for locking of an enclosure that is provided with at least one and preferably two doors or gates is provided. The locking system comprising a lock holding device with a bent piece for mounting of a locking rod behind the door and a blocking element and a lock.
Door security reinforcement system
A security reinforcement system for a door assembly having a door frame with first and second spaced-apart vertical structural supports and a door hinged thereto has first- and second-channel base plates respectively mountable to the first and second vertical structural support. Pivotally attached to the first and second base plates, respectively, are first and second opposed pluralities of security arms which rotate from a retracted position to an extended position in which security arms of the opposed pluralities extend toward each other across a portion of the door, reinforcing the door when first and second actuator arms operatively coupled to the first and second pluralities, respectively, are rotated from a vertical position to a horizontal position and are releasably coupled together by a sleeve.
Door Stopper
A door barricade device having a plate secured to an outward opening room door on a room side of the door; the plate having a pair of rails which engage a doorstop device which slides into the rails and abuts the doorframe inside the room, to prevent the door from opening outwardly. The room can be a classroom
Activators And Methods Of Using The Same For Barricading A Door
Barricade devices and methods of barricading a door are disclosed. Such devices and methods may be used to barricade a door, and thereby prevent an intruder from entering a sheltering space, such as a classroom, storeroom, or hallway. The barricade-device may have a pivotable stop-device that is pivotable from a location adjacent to a door. The pivot-location may be at an elevation that is lower than a door handle. The stop-device may be pivotable from a reserve-position to a stop-position. In the reserve-position, the stop-device does not barricade the door. In the barricade-position, the stop-device barricades the door. Operation of the barricade-device may require the application of an activation operation to an activator. A wide range of people having differing physical and mental capabilities may use the barricade-device properly and quickly.
LOCK MECHANISM
A lock mechanism includes a pedal, a vertical rod, a rod support, a hinge, a hinge support, a hinge lock, and magnets. When the pedal is pushed up the vertical rod, the hinge will lower into a cavity of the hinge lock and the lock mechanism will be in a “locked” mode. To “unlock” the lock mechanism, the user pushes the pedal down the vertical rod, then the hinge will raise out of the cavity of the hinge lock and now the lock mechanism will be in an “unlocked” mode. Then when the user wants to lock the lock mechanism while being inside a bathroom stall, the user will align a door with a wall/stand of the bathroom stall and then push the pedal up so the hinge will lower into the cavity of the hinge lock and the lock mechanism will be in a “locked” mode.
DOOR SECURITY DEVICE
A door security device includes a support bar, a first support member, a second support member, and an engagement portion. The first support member is provided on one end of the support bar and is adapted to abut against a surface of an associated door. The second support member is provided at another end of the support bar and is adapted to abut an associated structural surface. The engagement portion is secured to the support bar and is configured to releasably engage a door part of the associated door or an emergency entry device affixed to the associated door. The engagement portion applies a pulling force on the door part in a direction toward the support bar.
Apparatus for Barricading an Outward Swinging Door to Provide Physical Security
A system to barricade a door from forced entry is disclosed. The system includes an anchor insertable by a user into a receptacle mounted into a floor on the inside on the door, and a lock affixable to the door. The anchor includes an upper portion designed to connect with the lock, and a lower portion that preferably fits within the receptacle. The lock includes a stop designed to contact the outside surface of the door, and a key plate on the inside of the door. When the anchor is vertically inserted into the receptacle, the upper portion of the anchor engages the key plate of the lock affixed to the door, which in conjunction with the stop prevents the door from swinging outwards. The anchor can be removed from the receptacle when the user doesn't desire to barricade the door.
Panel Door Lockout
A lockout device is able to secure a door on a panel. The lockout device includes a housing and a flexible line. The housing has a first mounting portion adapted for securement to one side of the panel and the flexible line has on one end thereof a second mounting portion adapted for securement to another side of the panel from the first mounting portion. The housing further supports at least one line engagement element and the flexible line extends through at least a portion of the housing including the at least one line engagement element for selective engagement therewith. In use, the mounting portions may be affixed or attached to opposing sides or edges of the panel, the flexible line drawn taut, and the line engagement element(s) of the housing used to engage the flexible line to hold it in positon with respect to the housing.
Door Security Assembly
A door security assembly for blockading a door in a lockdown situation includes a blockade device. An element of the blockade device insertable into a gap defined by a door and a crash bar that is engaged to the door. Each of a pair of fasteners engaged to the blockade device is selectively engageable the crash bar, so that the blockade device is reversibly engaged to the crash bar with the element positioned in the gap. The blockade device prevents actuation of the crash bar so that the door cannot be opened. The fasteners are positioned so that two hands are required to simultaneously disengage the fasteners from the crash bar to enable disengagement of the blockade device from the crash bar.
Systems and Methods for Preventing the Opening of a Door by Unauthorized Personnel
Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed involving a door blocking apparatus to reduce a likelihood of, and possibly prevent, opening of a door by unauthorized personnel. The apparatus may be networked in a security system and may be connectable to an online security platform. In a particular embodiment, an embodiment of the invention may include a security system involving a plurality of door locations having a plurality of networked door blocking apparatus. Each door blocking apparatus may include a door blocking mechanism operable by a user on a safety side of a door, such as having the user rotate an apparatus handle that rotates the door blocking mechanism between a non-blocking position and a blocking position. In the non-blocking position, the door blocking apparatus does not block the door from opening and closing. In the blocking position, the door blocking apparatus blocks the door from opening and from closing completely.
