Bolo Stick

BOLO STICK is a strong, simple, safe, and affordable door barricade device. It is designed to be used in defense of human lives when the lockdown of rooms is necessary to protect against unwanted threats and armed intruders. Bolo Stick LLC was founded by William J. Barna, a 31-year police officer in the aftermath of repetitive critical incidents occurring within schools, churches, medical facilities, manufacturing plants, and public venues around the United States. As a veteran officer and certified Police Academy Instructor, he saw the need for an instantaneous solution to barricade interior doors from unwanted intruders. Thus, the Bolo Stick was created to be a solid steel locking device capable of withstanding forces in excess of 2 tons while maintaining affordability to cash-strapped school systems and businesses. While Bolo Stick was initially developed with schools in mind, we've also seen it installed in churches, hospitals, and workplaces as companies increase efforts for workplace security in light of recent public shootings.
