Locksmith Richmond Hill Panic Bars

Installed on doors that open to the outside, panic bars are available in a big variety of styles. Most panic bars have an alarm stopping anyone exiting from stealing anything or avoiding paying a tab. Constructed vertically or horizontally, all panic bar door openers work the same way: When the bar is pushed, the door opens. The exact number of exit doors needed, and the style guidelines you have to follow, will all depend on the size, height, and type of building, as well as its purpose and occupancy level.

The existing requirements apply to doors that either lock or latch. For instance, you do not need to have panic hardware on a free-swinging door with only a pull handle or push plate. The building code requires panic hardware only for specified occupancy types. A property designated as “assembly occupancy” is typically a space or building where large groups gather, such as a stadium, theater, or gym. An “educational occupancy” is a school building for children up to the last year of high school. Property used as college classrooms is considered “business occupancy”; note that some college classrooms serving as lecture halls, for example, are big enough to be classified as assembly occupancy. A classification for “daycare occupancy,” is for a place used for daycare for kids or adults. A “high-hazard occupancy” is any place containing a high level of hazardous materials, being a space at risk for explosions.

If you want to install the panic bar yourself, you can buy the package and follow the instructions. However, this is not a really easy solution.

If you need help installing a new panic bar, call us. We are available 24/7!

There are all kinds of panic hardware. Rim devices are easily installed, and call for minimal maintenance. The panic hardware with surface vertical rods is more difficult to install. There’s also a panic bar with a concealed vertical rod, which is more expensive as well as much harder to install.

How do you decide? As mentioned above, choose the panic bar needed for each door based on your building’s parameters. In most cases, it is best to hire an expert.

Each one of our technicians is qualified to help you find the perfect panic bars for all your building’s evacuation doors.
