Review Charley bar is better

Review Charley bar is better


 

This security bar is very easy to use and a good alternative for providing additional protection. There are questions about how it's installed and its width - this is from the package:

* This security bar adjusts to fit most sliding and hinged doors
* Simple push button adjustment. No tools required.
* High strength steel tube (20-gauge)
* Portable, collapsible to fit most suitcases (**I wouldn't try to bring it inside a carry on**)
* Ideal for home or apartment (entry doors, interior doors for privacy, garage access doors), student dorms and travel
* Limited lifetime guarantee (see your store for details) (**Not sure what it means but keep the receipt**)

For use with hinged doors:
* Non-marring yoke designed to work with most types of door hardware. Can be removed for use with sliding glass doors.
* Pivoting ball joint (assures full contact with the floor)
* Padded foot provides sure grip on most floor surfaces and protects against finish damage.
* For hinged door, adjusts from 30" to 44.5"
* Should not be placed on loose rugs or floor mats
* To install, adjust bar length so padded base is 15-18 inches from bottom of door when yoke end is placed firmly under door knob
* Adjust length by rotating tube until silver button pops up
* Place yoke end tightly against the underside of the knob
* Slide padded base of security bar toward door until snug

For use with sliding glass doors
* Remove non-marrying yoke from end of security bar
* Adjust bar length to fit in the sliding door track
* Allow enough slack to remove the security bar quickly
* For sliding door, adjusts from 27.5" to 42"

For childproofing purposes, a Charley bar is better.
