Panic bars are horizontal devices that let people push the exit door and leave without turning a handle or knowing a code. For commercial properties we match the style to the door — rim, vertical rod, or touch bar styles may be appropriate depending on the door and frame. Retrofit installations often require drilling new holes or fitting a different striking surface, while some doors accept a direct replacement with minimal modification. Hardware compatibility with closer arms, exit devices, and electric locking components is checked before any work begins. Where electrified hardware is present we verify how the panic bar will interact with power releases and alarms. After installation we adjust latching, ensure the bar returns properly, and confirm the door seals and closers still operate. Documentation of the installed hardware and basic operating instructions are provided so staff know how the exit works.

What affects the cost

Cost depends on the type of panic bar, the condition of the door and frame, and whether additional hardware work is required. Pricing is quoted on the phone before work starts.

  • Type of panic device
  • Door material and condition
  • Frame modification needs
  • Electrified hardware work
  • Additional locking parts

Worth knowing before you call

A common misconception is that all panic bars are the same; different openings and operational needs call for different devices. For instance, a heavy fire door and a single-light storefront door may need dissimilar mounting styles and reinforcement. Another mistaken belief is that a panic bar can be installed without checking the frame and closer; overlooking those elements can leave the device binding or the door failing to latch. If your door has an electric strike or mag lock, the panic bar must be compatible with those systems to allow safe egress. Regular testing and basic preventive checks will reveal problems like worn cams, sticky returns, or loose fasteners before they become critical. Keep staff informed about how the exit operates so routine use does not accidentally damage the device.

Before we arrive

A few small preparations make the visit smoother and help us give an accurate recommendation. Gathering door details and clearing the work area speeds inspection.

  • Have the door handedness ready
  • Note existing hardware on the frame
  • Clear the immediate exit area
  • Provide access or contact for property rep
