## Panic Bar Installation in New York City
Panic bar installation is a specialized service that ensures your commercial or multi-family property meets New York City fire and safety codes while providing reliable egress in emergencies. Unlike standard door hardware, a panic bar—also known as a crash bar or push bar—allows occupants to exit quickly by simply pushing against the bar, which unlatches the door without requiring key turning or handle manipulation. In New York City, where buildings range from pre-war walk-ups to modern high-rises, proper installation is critical. The process begins with a site assessment to determine the door type, frame condition, and existing hardware. We then measure and mount the panic bar at the correct height—typically 34 to 44 inches above the floor—ensuring it aligns with the latch mechanism and operates smoothly. For storefront doors, aluminum or stainless steel bars are common; for wooden doors in older buildings, we may need to reinforce the frame or adjust the strike plate. We also test the bar’s push pressure and resetting action to confirm it meets code requirements, such as a maximum of 15 pounds of force to release the latch. In NYC, panic bars are often required for assembly occupancies, retail spaces, and buildings with more than 50 occupants, but even smaller properties benefit from the added safety. Our work includes integrating the bar with existing alarm systems or access control if needed, ensuring you stay compliant without sacrificing security.

- We remove existing hardware only if necessary, minimizing downtime for your business or building.
- The bar is mounted, aligned, and adjusted for smooth operation—no sticking, binding, or misalignment.
