Re: Safe Room Door Lock

["Bob Worthy" <securinc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What about the hinges? It the door is swinging out, the hinges and pins will
be exposed to the outside. A pin at each hinge that recesses into the jamb
when the door is closed will prevent the door from opening, from the hinge
side, if the pins are popped. With no other hardware on the outside of the
door, a 600 lb. mag, with a battery back up power supply, should be
sufficient. It should also be a steel door with steel jamb. There is a
company that is selling these doors now called Masters Security Door. They
are a Italian company with a new operation in the States. They are starting
to sell these doors in Florida's Home Depots. Their website will be
available shortly. It is a great door.
