Frequently Asked Questions

Saul Innovations is, at its core, a lock company. We’ve taken our product from a simple idea, to a tested and patent pending device that people can trust to protect their lives. We handle everything regarding our product, and we handle it right here in Texas. Every step of the process, from design to manufacturing takes place in the Lone Star State. If you have any questions, or just want to reach out to talk, we’d be happy to speak with you anytime.

Good question! Perhaps the most significant feature of our barricade is its ability to work on ANY door, even those that open outwards. While most barricade devices are only compatible with specific configurations of doors, ours is truly universal, and unlike those devices, ours does not have easily exploited weaknesses. In fact, when our barricade was tested by a police breaching team, the door was still firmly in place after a large section of the door containing the lock and knob was ripped out of the door and frame.

There's a lot actually! Unlike fold out safe rooms and other large devices that serve as a constant reminder to students and teachers of the threat they face, ours is quite inconspicuous and easily mistaken for a typical piece of classroom furniture. It is also incredibly affordable, not only to purchase but to maintain as well, our barricade can easily last decades without needing maintenance as it has no complex mechanisms or electronic parts. It is also accessible as well, as we can outfit every classroom in your school for less than the cost of a single fold out saferoom. Want it in your school colors? We can do just that! 

First off, I’d like to congratulate you for making a very wise decision. In all seriousness though, our barricade offers unparalleled protection for its price, and unlike other intrusive or intimidating barricades, we don’t look out of place in a classroom. If you’re interested, email me directly at James@saulinnovations.com. I’ll be more than happy to meet you at your school in person to discuss how Saul Innovations can keep your students safe. 

I’m glad you care about your safety and the safety of others! Our product was actually developed by a student who wanted the same thing. While other companies do offer devices that provide some protection, Saul Innovations is proud to be the only one whose barricade works on any door, is reasonably priced, quick to activate, and extremely durable. The best way to get these devices in your classrooms would be to reach out to your administrators with your concerns, and tell them about us. Feel free to let us know too, as we’d be happy to help you work with your district.

Absolutely. Although we mainly intend our product to be used in schools, we have had many people express interest in better securing their homes with our product. When it comes to homes, we recommend installing it on an interior door. This will prevent your door from being easily kicked or otherwise forced open, giving you valuable time to get away or if you have no other options, to get ready. If you’re interested in having us put our barricade in your home or business, reach out!
