Every commercial property must keep its employees, customers, and visitors safe. At Arch City Locksmith, we provide and install panic bars and exit devices. These devices create secure emergency exits that follow safety codes while keeping your building secure.
Whether you run an office, warehouse, school, or store, our hardware helps people exit easily in an emergency. It also stops unauthorized re-entry.
We proudly serve businesses in St. Charles, St. Peters, O’Fallon, Wentzville, and Maryland Heights. We offer reliable hardware that meets ADA and fire safety codes redesigned for lasting performance.
A panic bar is also known as a crash bar or exit device. It helps people leave a building during an emergency. You push a horizontal bar to open the door. This works without needing to twist a knob or turn a key.
Fire and building safety codes require these devices in most commercial buildings. This is especially true for places with many people or public access.
Panic bars keep people and property safe. They allow easy exits while keeping doors locked from the outside. However, they are always accessible from inside.

Installing the right panic bar is not just about convenience. It is also about compliance and protecting yourself from liability.
Most cities and insurance policies require exit devices that follow ANSI, NFPA, and ADA standards. If hardware is not installed correctly or is outdated, it can cause safety violations and fines.
At Arch City Locksmith, we make sure every installation meets these important standards. We also ensure that the function and look of your doors are matched.
