Barracuda Door Defense System for Outward Swinging Doors (DSO-1: Jamb Widths up to 5-3/4")

This item is perfect for securing doors that open outward. We have had such an increase in crime due to covid quarantine as well as unemployment, I was trying to find someway to secure my back door. This more than does the job..heavy, solid, secure..it met all my need boxes. Pls dont let the price put you off as this is very heavy and frankly better than a security system. The culprit cannot get into the house so you have time to call police as this item is truly a secure master of safety.

Keep your family safe. This is a great bar that can be attached for outward swing doors. I can sleep at night knowing I did my best to keep her safe.

Great product sets up easily. Did take a few weeks to arrive but gives a good sense of extra security

Nice

I hate that I have to even consider this, but there was a recent mass shooting just a few miles from my school and the greatest fear expressed during that shooting was that no one could barricade an outward opening door to protect themselves. I am especially worried that a guest teacher in my classroom would not even have a key to lock the door if I wasn't there. The Barracuda system is sturdy, easy to use, and quick to put into place. While I pray that I never have to use it, at least I feel that I have taken an extra step in protecting my students.

Bought for my elderly grandmother, gave her peace of mind knowing her door is now secure, I'm a big guy and i couldn't budge it.

This product is everything i expected it to be. It is very strong, durable, and secure. I highly recommend this product to anyone who has a outward swinging door.

I bought this for my classroom at my students' requests and had the same issue, including the manufacturer disregarding my attempt to get help. I even had it welded to extend it, because I had already spent so much on it, but it still didn't work. When I called for advice with adapting it, the manufacturer basically said tough luck. I asked it they would consider making different sizes of the latching mechanism and they blew off my feedback. I thought with all of the school incidents recently, they would be a little less blaze about helping a teacher who paid out of pocket to protect her students.
