That door bar is the biggest piece of crap on the planet! My abusive ex used to kick open my door with one swift kick using that door bar. It literally was like using a popsicle stick to secure my door shut. Do yourself a favor and find something else. Aside from this product this is a great video of how this product was intended to be used.

Agreed. I just got one and it’s pointless. It just slides right out.

This did not work at all. Scary but true, I needed it and it was a sound deterrent only. Luckily my situation did not escalate, but I 100 percent encourage anyone that is looking for safety with this product do not purchase.

What about a field test you are thinking? Well just found this on another video so cut and pasted here: "Let me tell you guys this, first hand, in 2015 I was raided by the Feds and I had one of these security bars in place and it took them nearly 8 minutes to get into my house, the whole place was shaking sounded like an earthquake and finally the bar gave in and the door went down, I heard the dogs barking, I was detained, (released with out charge after nearly 24 hours) but man, that bar is really something definitely worth the $31.95 or whatever it was I paid for it something around there if I remember correctly. I remember that one federal agent telling his buddy "I would of hit the door twice and if it wouldn't budge I would of went through the window" oh, they also asked me me why my toilet was running... I said because I had to take a pee why else, got home the next day and everything was ripped apart literally, floor panels out of place, ceiling tiles taken down, everything in my cupboards thrown on the ground, couch cushions ripped open, dog prints all over the place but none the less that precious security bar really saved my ass for reasons in which I refuse to discuss on these forums." This review makes me more comfortable as I have been using this bar for some years and apart from pushing on the unlocked door with a friend inside I was not sure about a full on assault by a bogie man in the wee hours. The idea is they have to wake you up to get in - instead of one swift kick and they are standing in your bedroom with you asleep.

This is probably the best video when it comes to installing. 30 degrees seems right. At 45 it seems to be to much where the bar just don't hold it's position. And explaining to kick it into place seems to be right on the money. Thanks. I was just wanting to know if I had it right.

I'm very familiar with that specific door stick. The way you have it adjusted far out like that. your door can be pushed in. And it will Rune the screws in your hinges

I tried it on the front door then, went out the patio so, I could test it myself. To my surprise, my shoulder, with a few nudges, opened the door. I will try again with a smaller angle, but no longer confident. Where is the upgrade video, please🙂? Thanks.

@@theoutdooroffice432 I’ve been reading various comments. Mine is by MasterL*ck which isn’t high up there. Someone said they’ve been placing big dumbbells on top of theirs. Someone else screwed theirs into the floor. I will try once more then likely pay for a more secure one. Cheers.

There are a few videos of these failing with not much force applied, maybe 2 pushes with shoulder.

These locks are only useful if used on a solid core door, with no windows, and if someone is in the house at all times. Since it can't be unlocked from the outside, it is useless if everyone leaves the house.

I have one of these locks but I don't trust it as delivered. You're depending on the friction between the rubber bottom and the floor where it is propped. What I have done, is to drill a hole in the base into the concrete floor while in the propped position. Then I insert a metal pin through the lock base into the floor and then it is not movable. However, what I said earlier is still true. YOU CAN'T USE THIS LOCK IF EVERYONE LEAVES THE HOUSE SINCE YOU CAN'T UNLOCK IT FROM THE OUTSIDE ON A LOCKED DOOR!

Not going to holds. Go outside you will push it in. I have to hammer the bottom all the way to the door.
