I installed two of these bad boys in my house, front and back door, about two weeks ago. I have a concrete slab foundation and thankfully had a hammerdrill to make the holes. In turn the front and back door are nearly impossible to break down now, someone would literally have to knock the door off the hinges or rip it out the opposite direction to get in. My wife was greatfull when she was home alone with the kids and on two seperate occasions at night strangers came knocking. The door club can be turned around and slipped back into place to allow the door to be opened and inch or two to allow the person inside to talk without compromising safety. When not in use it hangs up nicely on the door with a provided hanger. Excellent, inexpensive, and secure.

As a woman, I feel safe since I've had the club installed on my front door for 3 years. It took me a couple of hours to install it but girl get out your pink drill because you can do it! I'm sure my next install with go faster --buying more when I close on my new house next month. The only thing I would change is the color choices. I wish it came in black or stainless. One suggestion for install: when installing the "hook" that holds the club when not in use, install it a little higher up on the bottom of your door. I have mine installed very low so I can't take a quick glance at it to tell if its bolt locked in the floor or if its hanging on the hook since they are so closely installed. Because of this, I have to walk over and actually look closely to see if its hanging on the hook or bolted to the floor.

Own the door club and it is the best investment in home safety. This device will prevent anyone from breaking down your front/back doors. It can withstand many pounds of force. Gives extra sense of security while you sleep or are away from home. For double doors purchase two door clubs. Takes a little time to install (due to drilling) but worth it. A great backup to a security system. Especially useful since criminals sometimes find a way around dead bolts.

I saw this as the ultimate in home security. Since my big fear is to have someone in my house who broke down my door while I am home I always have them on my door. It makes me feel very safe. I borrowed a Hammer Drill from my Dad and had this installed in about 40 min on both doors. I also have an alarm on my house but I have seen how long it takes for help to arrive and I am not one to keep the alarm on while I am home so these provide the right amount of security for my family. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Product should work to secure door. This is the second house I have used door club on. Had some break-ins in our neighborhood, crooks were kicking in front door. This should slow them down. I also installed them for a couple of my neighbors. Only problem was superglue that came with product was dried up. Also gold plateing on floor plate is peeling off. If it keeps unwanted people out of my house I can live with the peeling issue.

This is a great product. I had seen it advertised a few years ago and wanted to try it. Of course I have 2 doors so I needed one for each door. I installed them both with ease--about a half an hour each. Installed supplied longer screws for the strike plate as well as the hinges and man I have put all of my 170 lb body weight into that door and cannot budge it! My family feels much safer!!!!

This works great. I have never slept so sound using this. A door would literally have to be torn down to get into the house.

I highly recommend this excellent product. With this in place, no one is coming through the front door uninvited. It also has a second position that allows the homeowner to open the door about a half inch to talk to whoever is outside without sacrificing your security. Unlike those flimsy door chains, this product is up to the task. An additional use for the Door Club here in Florida is to prevent a hurricane from blowing my front door open. Very well made, and strong.

Excellent product. Easy to use. No fumbling for keys for extra security doors. Easy to install. I adore this product.

This seems to be a nice way of improving door security. Surprisingly, my strike plate was held by 1/2 inch screws which could have been easily kicked in(!)

Installation was fairly easy, but some people may have problems drilling the main large hole for the club. I used a small hole saw, but a spade bit would have been easier. If your door is on a slab, drilling concrete will be more work.

The door club can be reversed to let you open the door a few inches to safely talk to people or look out, which is a nice feature.

The brass finished hardware looks nice to me, but some may prefer a less noticeable solution.

Other products may be easier to install but cost 4-5 times as much. The Door Club is certainly more secure than lodging a pole under the door knob.

You may be able to reinforce your door & hinges with the included three inch screws, but that wasn't an option for my door. Still, the club has been a good solution and it didn't cost and arm & a leg.

The Door Club offers more protection. I'd definitely hear someone trying to break in (as if they could!) It's cheap piece of mind.
