ABSTRACT:
A wedge security device to be positioned on a floor at the inside bottom edge of an inwardly opening door includes a wedge shape member including an upper and lower surface leading at a front acute angle such that the bottom edge of the door will ride up on the upper surface of the wedge with a rounded surface extension allowing the wedge to rock backwardly when the edge of the door engages the wedge, a resilient compressible pad to facilitate wedging of the member under the door and a rubber appendages pad on the bottom of the wedge shape to prevent sliding along the floor surface with a pair of guide member with slots to allow the door to move toward and up on the wedge shape, but prevent its movement backwardly away from engagement once it has been wedged into position.
