Doorricade Security Bar — Heavy-Duty Door Barricade for 32–36" Doors

Product description

MAXIMUM REINFORCEMENT — Designed to secure inward-opening single doors by transferring impact forces into wall studs, this barricade system is engineered to withstand up to 2,000 lbs of battering-ram resistance. The main shaft is made from solid marine-grade aluminum while the hinge-style mounting brackets are 316 marine-grade stainless steel for long-term corrosion resistance. The bracket design locks the fasteners in place so they are less likely to loosen under heavy impact.

SELECT THE RIGHT LENGTH — For a secure fit, choose a bar that is at least 2 inches wider than the door so the bar overlaps the two mounting brackets properly. For example, a 35 1/4" door would need a 38" bar. This product is intended for single inward-opening doors only; correct measurement and stud anchoring are essential for peak performance.

DURABLE COMPONENTS — The kit includes the aluminum security bar, two stainless-steel hinge brackets with thumb-lock features, reinforced end caps, a high-density foam spacer with adhesive backing to protect door finish and fill gaps, plus both 3" and 1½" screws for different frame depths. All edges are finished for safe handling.

SIMPLE INSTALLATION — Measure evenly on both sides of the jamb (recommend placing the brackets just above the deadbolt or handle), mark locations, pre-drill pilot holes with the supplied drill bit, then attach the brackets using the supplied screws. The bracket mounting face is very thin (about 1/16") to minimize clearance issues; occasionally a shallow recess in the jamb is needed so the door can fully close.

WHAT'S IN THE BOX & WARRANTY — Kit contents: one solid aluminum security bar, two 316 stainless-steel hinge brackets with thumb-locks, 3" and 1½" screws, adhesive foam spacer, drill bit, and a security decal. The product is supported by a lifetime warranty when used as intended. This device is not a substitute for contacting emergency responders when needed.

Pros

  • High-strength marine-grade materials resist corrosion and force
  • Complete kit with screws, foam spacer and drill bit for DIY install
  • Lifetime warranty for long-term confidence

Cons

  • Requires mounting into studs for full effectiveness
  • Some doorframes need mortising for clearance
  • Fits single inward-opening doors only

VerdictA rugged, straightforward door-reinforcement system built from marine-grade aluminum and 316 stainless steel hardware. When sized and installed correctly into wall studs it adds a highly durable mechanical stop for inward-opening single doors. Installation is mostly DIY with provided hardware and a drill bit; some doors require minor mortising for clearance. Overall this kit gives clear, reliable

Reviews

  1. Ginny 5/5

    Worth the time and effort

    I had to chisel a bit of the frame for clearance, but after installation it’s quick to set each night and gives me real peace of mind. Definitely worth the investment.

  2. Alex 4/5

    Didn’t fit my trim

    Product seems well made and comes with long screws, but my door has deep casing and decorative trim so the brackets couldn’t sit flush. Needed more jamb depth than my entry has.

  3. Marcia 5/5

    Secure and simple

    Follow the instructions — the bar looks good and is heavy. Very satisfied and would buy again.

  4. Lorne 5/5

    Necessary protection

    I wish we didn’t need these, but in my area this adds an important layer of defense. Good product to help protect family and home.

  5. Sandra 5/5

    Reliable nightly use

    Good security bar. I use it every night and it provides peace of mind.

  6. Hellen C. 5/5

    Does the job

    Very happy — solid feel and it performs as expected.

  7. big spender 5/5

    Solid and reassuring

    Feels substantial and is easy to install. Worth the money for the added safety at night or when out.

  8. GregEVT 5/5

    Peace of mind in a simple package

    Well-packaged and intuitive to install; the provided drill bit and hardware made setup fast. The installed unit is stout and the hinge keeps the bar from being lifted out of its notches. Good value for added time to respond in an emergency.

  9. Lisa 5/5

    Sturdy and well-built

    Construction seems robust and installation was quick. It feels reliable — hopefully never tested, but it's a sound addition to our security setup.

  10. BW 5/5

    Clean look, strong performance

    Replaced an older barricade with this aluminum bar for a garage entry. The 38" bar fit my 32" opening, installation was under 15 minutes, and it slides into place easily with rubber grips. Felt solid and neat against the frame.

  11. N. M. Hartley 5/5

    Solid, American-made confidence

    This is extremely solid and feels premium — heavy-duty aluminum and thick stainless brackets. The kit includes both long and shorter screws. Installation was straightforward and I trust it for serious reinforcement.

  12. Robert Grays 5/5

    Practical reinforcement option

    I upgraded my home defense and built a safe room with this. Parts arrived well protected. Removing the door made alignment easier; you may need a helper when re-hanging. Check hinge placement before cutting or drilling.

  13. HSPS2 5/5

    Manufacturer fixed earlier problems

    Components feel heavier and improved: no sharp edges, better screw placement, high-quality stainless fasteners, and rotating keepers that stop prying. I mortised the jamb for clearance, which was a bit of work but doable.
