About the service
Professional Panic Bar Installation in Granada Hills
Most calls we get for panic bars in Granada Hills start with a fire inspector's note. A storefront along the Old Granada Village stretch, a church hall, a daycare off a quiet residential street up near the foothills – someone walked the building, looked at a rear exit, and wrote it up. The door swings the wrong way for the load, or it has a deadbolt a panicking crowd can't find. That is the real problem we solve.
We install push-to-exit crash bars so a single shove opens the door, every time, with no thumb-turn to fumble. For a hot Valley summer afternoon when the AC is straining and the room is packed, that matters. We size the device to the door, the frame, and the occupancy, then leave you with hardware an inspector signs off on instead of flagging again.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Granada Hills
When we arrive we read the door before we touch it: hollow metal or solid wood, single or double, which way it swings, and whether your write-up calls for a fire rating. A door on a rated wall corridor needs a fire-rated exit device with no dogging feature – it has to relatch on its own. A high-traffic public door that just needs clean egress can take a standard rim device. We confirm which one you actually need before drilling anything.
For shops near the businesses around the older commercial core, an alarmed exit is common – staff propping a back door open is the usual headache. We can add a battery alarm kit that chirps when the bar is pushed, plus electric latch retraction if the door ties into access control. Most single-door jobs wrap in a couple of hours, and we mount strikes and pulls at ADA-compliant heights. We work Granada Hills and the surrounding north Valley around the clock.

Common questions
FAQ
Is a panic bar actually required by code for my building?
It depends on occupancy and use, not the city. Assembly spaces like a church hall or a packed retail floor, and many doors on schools or daycares, trip the threshold where a push-to-exit device is mandatory. If a Granada Hills inspector already flagged the exit, the answer is almost certainly yes. Show us the write-up and we'll tell you exactly which device clears it.
What's the difference between a fire-rated and a standard panic bar?
A fire-rated exit device cannot be 'dogged' – it always relatches so a fire door stays shut and holds back smoke. It carries a UL fire label. A standard rim device can be dogged to stay unlocked during business hours. If your door sits on a rated wall or corridor, you legally need the fire-rated version; for a plain public exit, standard is fine and cheaper.
Can the panic bar have an alarm on it?
Yes. We install battery-powered exit alarms that chirp loudly when the bar is pushed, which is the go-to fix for shops near the older commercial blocks where staff keep propping the back door for deliveries. For buildings with a real security system, we can add electric latch retraction so the bar integrates with your access control and door scheduling instead of a standalone alarm.
Will a crash bar fit my existing door?
Almost always. We carry rim devices for hollow-metal and aluminum storefront doors, plus options for solid wood, and we size to single or double openings. If you've got a glass aluminum-frame storefront common along the Granada Hills retail strips, we use a device built for narrow stiles. We measure on site first so the bar, strike, and any mullion line up before we commit.
