ABSTRACT:
An externally releasable security bar system for mounting on an inside surface of an inwardly swinging door and engaging a floor surface to prevent unauthorized entry through the door is provided. The system may include a mounting plate, a bracing arm, a release pin, an actuation mechanism, and a locking mechanism. The bracing arm has a secured position in which a distal end of the bracing arm is in contact with the floor surface, and an unsecured position in which the distal end is elevated from the floor surface. The actuation mechanism transfers the release pin to an engaged position, which causes the bracing arm to pivot to the unsecured position to allow unimpeded entry through the door. The locking mechanism is provided to allow for selective operation of the actuation mechanism.
