It took me a second to see what was happening here, and now I’m #wordless. Thank you to Kim Murkette of Isenhour Door for the photo!

Yep
The closed at night bars on the floor, and it looks like they use them.
Once again the cheap answer to an expensive situation. I wonder if it’s still cheap after the lawsuits or class action
Trip hazard, right? All kidding aside, it just blows my mind that facilities are still using devices to prevent egress doors from opening. It’s going to take some sort of tragedy in their own school to change the mind set.
Move along, nothing to see here, just some leftover extra rebar … yikes
Quick and easy way to deny egress while “securing” this exit!
The only thing missing in the picture is the “Exit” sign. Columbo would want to know why all the orange scratches on the blue painted frames from the exit devices downward to the hooks on the floor. 🙂
Lori,
Although this picture looks pretty obvious what the rebar is used for…This is one of those cases where the Fire Marshal needs the eyes of the public to let us know of these types of situations. Chances are the rebar gets picked up in the early am by the early arriving Building Engineer and gets put back on the doors late in the pm by the evening Custodian. Either way, its not good!!!

Thanks Kevin! I do not hesitate to alert the local fire marshal any time I see a problem.
