ABSTRACT:
A security apparatus adapted to prevent the opening of a door by intruders and which comprises an elongate rigid bar, and a pair of brackets for selectively mounting the bar across the door opening. The bar carries a hollow cylinder of resilient foam material or the like which is adapted to contact the door to thereby cushion the shock of the door being forceably opened against the bar to thereby minimize damage to the door and reduce the possibility of the mounting brackets being released from the wall. In the preferred embodiment, means are provided for insuring that the resilient cylinder is positioned to overlie the doorknob side of the door, and means may also be provided for hanging the bar from one of the brackets in a non-operative position.
