Panic Bars

What is a Panic Bar?


A panic bar, also known as a crash bar or exit device, is a door-opening mechanism designed for quick and easy egress during emergencies. Typically installed on exit doors of public buildings, panic bars allow individuals to open a door by simply pushing a horizontal bar, enabling a swift and unobstructed escape.
