What are Panic Devices? What are Exit Devices?
Many people do not know what an “exit device” is despite the fact we all see them all the time. Exit devices are crash bars and panic bars. Every commercial and public building in this country, including Sunrise has at least one exit device. Exit devices play an important role in the safety and security of human lives and their property.
To begin, an exit device is door hardware which allows doors to remain locked from the outside when necessary. People inside the building, however, can still exit the same door without having to unlock the door.
On buildings with crash bars, no one is able to open doors installed with these devices from the outside when locked.
In the event of an emergency, such as a fire, those inside the building can use these locked doors as an emergency exit by pushing against the crash bar on the inside part of the door.
The term “panic bar” was given to exit devices because they can be opened very fast in an emergency. Panic bars are also beneficial because people with limited mobility and small children can initiate them.
Panic Bar Installation Options
Ontario Door Repair and Service can help you in selecting the right panic bar hardware from a wide variety of options, styles, functions and sizes. The two important features when selecting panic bar hardware are: door type and options for operating the panic bar.

Toronto Panic Bar Exit Devices – 647-951-3510
Panic Bar, Exit Device (Crash Bar) is a device for unlocking a door during emergency conditions. The mechanism consists of a spring-loaded metal bar fixed horizontally to the inside of an outward opening door. When the lever is either pushed or depressed, it activates a mechanism which unlatches the door allowing occupants to leave the building quickly.
Panic bars are typically found on doors which are required emergency exits serving a particular type or quantity of occupants. Common locations include: 
– doors which provide egress from assembly areas
– doors which serve many occupants
– or doors serving hazardous areas
– for buildings subjected to international building code or a locally adopted variation
– they are required for healthcare, education, or assembly spaces generally related to the number of occupants exiting through a given door.
A door intended only for exit doesn’t need a handle on the outside, and for security a handle on the outside is often omitted. However a door handle can be mounted on the outside to create a two way door. This allows the bar to be locked in a neutral (latch open) position, allowing the door to be freely opened from either side.

Panic Bar Repair and Installation in Toronto: Common Problems We Fix
Panic bars (also called push bars or exit devices) let people leave a building quickly without a key. When one fails, the door either won’t latch and secure the building, or won’t release, which is a safety problem. These are the calls we get most often from Toronto businesses.
Panic bar won’t latch
The door closes but the latch doesn’t catch the strike. Usually the door has sagged, the strike has moved, or the closer isn’t pulling the door fully shut. We realign the door and strike and adjust the door closer.
Push bar is hard to push or sticks
A worn or dry mechanism, a bent bar, or a latch rubbing its strike. Servicing the device or replacing worn parts restores a smooth push.
Door won’t lock from the outside
The outside trim or cylinder is worn, or the dogging and locking functions are out of adjustment. We repair or replace the trim so the door can be secured at closing time.
Vertical rod panic bar problems
Double doors and storefront doors often use top and bottom rods. Bent rods, worn latches and dirt in the floor strike stop them working. Rods are adjusted or replaced and the latches re-set.
Panic bars on fire-rated doors
Fire doors need fire exit hardware and must close and latch on their own. We make sure replacements keep the door compliant. See fire door inspection in Ontario.
New panic bar installation
We install rim, vertical-rod and mortise exit devices on steel, hollow metal, wood and aluminum doors, including new back doors and exits in renovated units. For the full door, see hollow metal door and frame replacement.

We install and repair panic bars in Scarborough, Mississauga, Markham, North York, Vaughan and across the GTA.
Panic Bar FAQ
Can a panic bar be repaired or does it need replacing?
Many can be repaired: latches, springs, trims and rods are replaceable. Badly damaged or obsolete devices are replaced.
Why won’t my panic bar door latch?
Most often the door has sagged or the closer isn’t pulling it fully closed, so the latch misses the strike.
Can you install a panic bar on a glass storefront door?
Yes. Narrow-stile aluminum doors use specific exit devices, and we fit the right type for the door.
Do you repair panic bars after hours?
Yes. If your exit door won’t secure at closing time, call us 24/7.
Can I send photos for a quote?
Yes. Send photos or a short video on WhatsApp at 647-866-0956.
