Safe-Latch for Doors with Panic Bars or Crash Bars
Many doors in classrooms and other school rooms use panic bars, also known as crash bars, to enable swift and safe exit in case of a fire or other emergency. It is essential that these doors be easy to lock and latch as simply and quickly as possible to prevent unauthorized entry during an active shooter incident.
Every panic door in your school should be fitted with Safe-Latch for Panic Bars or Crash Bars. It’s easy for any teacher or student to use and is a sensible, cost-effective approach to improving school safety.
“Safe-Latch is a daily tool so you know right where it is and can be very comfortable using it. It’s as easy as learning to use a light switch.”
– Laura Lloyd, Associate Principal and Co-Director of Safety, Kettle Moraine School District
