No mod to door or floor.
So could cops doing their job.
Yes. It’s a combination of working parts.
Impressive! I hope this student’s invention ends up being sold by Amazon and other big name retailers.
Might be useful for a teacher wanting to do some one-on-one counseling with one of her students. Or perhaps some lines of coke.
Can it be shot out. Has THAT been tested?
Iron emergency or classroom doors with slide bolts would work just effectively. The fire axe in the hall would not be able to break through it.
Is this for use when you are behind a door that opens into the room?
I'm pondering this because I thought classroom doors opened outward to prevent a rush of people from not allowing the door to open inward in an emergency evacuation.
Am I correct in remembering that no school shooter has yet breached a locked door?
He was on Laura Ingraham this week. Headed for Army basic training very shortly.
Matt Lauer bought two.
Duh, they don’t have “iron doors”. This works with the doors they do have.
Wonder if Mike Rowe needs an apprentice?
Exception: Existing buildings may be less than 3 feet in width if the clear width of the exitway is not less than 28 inches. (Title 24, Part 2, Section 2-3303(e).) (c) Door Leaf Width. No leaf of an exit door shall exceed 4 feet in width. (Title 24, Part 2, Section 2-3303(f).) (d) Swing. Exit doors shall swing in the direction of exit travel ...
So if that's the case, the invention has existed for a long time, a bracket on the left and right side of the door into which a cross bar is dropped making it impossible for the door to swing out.
H*ll, a functional Brev-tard County Police Dept and FBI could save a lot more lives.
In a fluid situation with a shooter or hostage taker, odds are against they will spend a whole lot of time trying to breach the door but will look for an easier target.
There are many other devices on the market as well.
Still, kudos to the kid. Whatever best meets the needs. The only thing is you have to think on the offense side. If a person in the classroom wants to harm or take hostages, could they use something like this which would make breaching the door for rescue more difficult?
But if it were my child in a classroom, if this were the only tool available, it would give more of a chance of survival.
These sick people have evil minds, just like terrorists. They really are terrorists of the domestic sort. And they will get more and more creative to achieve their ends regardless of measures put in place to end the violence.
Thanks, I’ll look that up.

Will be effective only with a solid core door having a wide, full width frame element at the bottom of the door.

this teenager looks like he’s contributed something positive
this is 10,000 times better than all the sadly-misguided young ‘demostrators’ demanding this or that or the other thing, none of which would make anyone any safer.. and some of which could make them far less safe (They should return to their studies...or perhaps invent, offer some further good ideas like this fellow )
Like spawn of satan Hoog.
He’s no longer innocent pawn, but participant.
He wants it, well he gets it.
