It doesn’t work for my door. I should have measured before buying

I wanted to secure my outside basement door, which is a very heavy and solid wood door; the kind they just dont make anymore. The Door Bull was easy to install in literally 5 to ten minutes. It fits just snug enough and really secures the door. It provides that added security in addition to the existing knob lock and dead-bolt. Really a solid and ingenious device. With the three 3-inch screws going deep into the door jamb, the Door Bull provides a very wide latching area that is almost three times the surface area of the dead bolt alone. Anyone trying to kick in the door will have to shatter the door and the jamb to splinters before the door can be compromised. Great product. I will be ordering a second one for the garage door.

This is an awesome product that works if you throw away the included cheap junky screws and go buy some good screws at the hardware store

I agree with some of the other reviewers here as far as the cheap drill bit and screws provided. I purchased mine just before Christmas 2019. I ended up CAREFULLY using the drill bit but I can see how it might snap. I installed the door jam plate with #10 3 Spax screws -- see pics. The heads protruded out as far as the set screw head, so if your door closes with the set screw it should close with the #10 Spax screws. You could probably use a slightly smaller screw but thats what I had handy, and they have a great reputation for holding. I also used the same screws to replace some of the preexisting short 1 screws in the door jam. I never did use the cheap zinc screws provided with the Door Bull over fear of stripping or snapping, plus I desired a beefier screw. Im pretty happy with the product otherwise.

I have an alarm system, but… I don’t care WHERE you live, you can’t assume that you’re safe anymore. I’ve used these to create safe rooms inside my home, or to just slow an intruder down. By the time the bad guy gets past this device, I’ve grabbed my phone and escaped via a window.

I have these on all of my exterior doors. They lock the door up TIGHT and feel very secure. I have tested it by really ‘putting my shoulder into it’ trying to break the door in from outside and the door does not even flinch a bit. I have kicked in many doors so I know how to do it. I wouldn’t say these are 100% foolproof but for standard use and an extra layer of security these are a very simple & non-obtrusive solution that works.

Once I installed this device, along with several superior long screws, I find that with my normal deadbolt and this device, that it would take a pretty strong assault to gain entry. I feel confident that a simple 200 pound kick will not gain entry. Ive had to kick doors in, and usually the side molding and small screws into the 2 X 4 framing is what gives way. This clearly distributes the weight in a much wider (leverage) manner will require a much more vigorous assault to gain entry. A little pricey in my opinion but is far superior to another deadbolt or comparative assembly.

We are very happy that we bought these for all our doors. They were easy to install and we do sleep better at night knowing that theres added protection. Thank you to the men who saw a need and decided to take the time to fill it from what they were experiencing as officers. Anyone tries a forced entry here and we will be ready along with our friends S & W.

Excellent product for doors with wood posts. It comes with hardware/screws and also a wall mount holder to safely store when not in use. I had metal posts and I was not handy enough to install it on metal posts and hence returned it. It works perfectly well on wood door posts and if you know how to drill steel and use machine screws, it would work perfectly on metal posts also.

Great Product! Makes me feel secure and safe! Of course I installed it on a SOLID wood door… not a multi pane glass door (now that would be silly, wouldn’t it?) And I’ve already told my family if they know I’m in the house and I’m not answering calls and have been MIA and this is keeping them from getting in my house, They have my permission to break a window to gain access.
