Door Barricade | Door Jam Door Stoppers Security Bar Add Extra Security to Your Inward Opening Front Door at Home - an Innovative Solution from The Law Enforcement Experts (Silver)

I bought this late last year and only recently got around to opening the box and installing it only to realize that the bracket you put the plate on when not in use is missing. Its been too long to return so Im reaching out to the seller to see if they will do anything to help me out. As for the install, I found that I couldnt close the door with the set screw in place so I had to do my adjustment with the door open but it came out alright. I didnt find the mounting hardware overly cheap but I suggest using a hand tool to install the screws (after drilling the holes) because they looked like they might strip out with a screw attachment on a drill. Ill update this review when I find out if the seller is willing to fix the missing part. Update - I reached out to the seller and a day later they contacted me and offered to send me the missing part. With that kind of service they earned more stars.

For as much as you pay you would think they would include decent screws not chinese made screws. My one screw completed striped halfway screwed in and after geting the others in I now cant get them out to cut off or remove the stripped screw. Other than that it seems like it will work well. I probably would have given it 5 stars but I now have to go the the store and get something to remove the stripped screw and I cant shut my door. Yes I drilled the holes completely the length of the screw so that is not the problem. It was easy to install but I gave it one.

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.

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. LOL

I do recommend it for all

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

The Door Bulls innovative design, robust construction and highly secure installation method inspire plenty of confidence. Considering the massive reinforcement it provides, it even looks fine when in use. Its also very quick and easy to remove in the event of an emergency evacuation. Other reviewers have raised questions about installation-hardware quality. We bought two Door Bulls at the same time, and found the included drill bit worked superbly; the first bit was still sharp after installing both units, and weve saved it and the unused second bit for further use. We did have issues with stripping heads on the long phillips screws, however, using two different manual screwdrivers. Applying WD-40 to the threads before installation helped somewhat. Its also possible that using a cordless screwdriver, which might reduce wobbling while more quickly driving in these very long screws, would prevent gouging up the head slots. Im not sure screw quality is actually the issue here; the last inch just takes a lot of torque. That said, were extremely pleased with this product, and highly recommend it for personal security on all exterior doors when at home, for rendering secondary entrances impassable when away from home, and possibly as an added layer of security on an interior door for a bedroom or other safe room.

I read the other reviews and complaints about the screws that are included in the kit, and decided to get my own star headed 3 screws. I like mine better than what comes in the kit. I ended up replacing all of the screws in my door hinges (as shown in the photo, a 2 yr old could kick in my door), and used them for this Door Bull too. It fits well against the door, and there is no slack, its snug, and easy to slide in and out of the groove. For a little more security, its worth getting one of these, especially if you dont use your front door very often. However, if theres a power outage, and you dont have a battery backup on your garage door opener, then you are not going to get in your own house through the front door if this is in place. Common sense, sure....but theres always somebody that will forget.

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.
