Universal Door Barricade

Unmet Need
Each year there are over 2000 home burglaries reported and 2.5 million home intrusions are reported. Because of this there is a need for a simple, fast, easily undone, cheap way to barricade doors. One out of 3 residential assaults are a result of burglary, so a barricade would not only prevent robbery but also assault. 
 
Technology Overview
The proposed technology is an alternative to exisitng products on the market. It is a small metal appliance to be fasted under a door to keep it from being opened. The way it’s designed, pulling or pushing on the door makes the barricade stronger. This technology doesn’t need any prior setup whereas Night Lock does, but all three offer security and can be removed easily from the safe side of the door.
 
Stage of Development
The product is fully developed. Schematics and prototypes are available.
