Abstract:
1. A barrier system for blocking a doorway against active shooter situations and for storage along an adjacent wall in ready position to be deployed to block the doorway, comprising: a barrier panel; an upper channel, a lower channel, side channel, and a storage side channel; the upper channel being disposed to extend over the doorway and along an adjacent wall to receive the barrier panel in nesting but slidable engagement; the lower channel being disposed along the adjacent wall and not extending into the doorway for receiving the barrier panel in nesting but slidable engagement, the side channel being disposed along a side of the doorway opposite from the adjacent wall for receiving the barrier panel in nesting engagement when the barrier panel is closed to block the doorway; and a locking bar that moves from a substantially vertical disposition adjacent the storage side channel into a substantially horizontal locking position as the barrier panel is drawn to close the doorway and positions into the locking position when the barrier panel nests in the side channel, upper channel, and lower channel simultaneously.
