Apparatus for Barricading a Door Having Electronic Monitoring Capability

Abstract

A system to barricade a door from forced entry. The system includes a lower portion that preferably fits within a receptacle that is recessed into the floor when the anchor is deployed. The system can include electronics and communication circuitry to allow deployment of the system to be monitored by a monitoring system, which may be incorporated into an insert affixable to the system. The communication circuitry is configured to send a message, which can include identifying information and an indication of deployment, to the monitoring system, and may also be configured to receive and indicate alerts from the monitoring system. A Graphical User Interface at a monitoring computer in the monitoring system can display information about system deployment at a site being monitored, which may include a number of potentially deployable systems.
