How The Sleeve2 Works:
When Seconds count, The Sleeve could save your life.
You think it can’t happen at your school, but it’s becoming a reality more often.
Art Rocha was in charge of a lab directly across the street from the UCLA shooting.
"You know, we were all kind of nervous in not knowing where the shooter was and that was when I remembered that I had that Sleeve. We did feel a lot more secure with this and that there was no way he was going to be able to come in. Even if he shot the lock off, the way this sits up on top I can guarantee you there was no way he was going to be able to come in."
The Sleeve prevented a door breach during the attack.
There have been hundreds of school shootings in the last few years. Teachers desperately tried to protect themselves with last-minute attempts to secure classroom doors.
When seconds count, you could be out of time. But not with The Sleeve.

Why You Need The Sleeve
Emergency Door Locks for Schools, Offices, and other Commercial Buildings
Schools, offices, and other commercial buildings often have outward-swinging doors equipped with a door arm.
In fair weather, this is awesome.
It makes it easier for people in wheelchairs to enter and exit, and it helps in fire emergencies.
But there’s one BIG problem.
Most outward-swinging doors can ONLY lock from the outside.
And if there’s an active shooter around, someone will have to get out to the hallway and expose themselves to lock the door.
This is FAR from ideal.
It’s downright putting your life on the line.
The Ineffective “Belt Solution”
To combat this, safety instructors recommend the “belt solution.”
Instead of exposing yourself to lock the door, you can tie the door arm closed with your belt.
But as Daniel Nietzel and other instructors tried this method, they found two fatal flaws.
One, it didn’t work.
It held up for a short time.
But as the instructor continued to pull the door open, the belt eventually gave.
Two, it was DIFFICULT.
Imagine threading a needle with a gun pointed at your head.
Most people will fumble until it’s too late.
In the same way, trying to fasten a belt when your life is in danger is extremely difficult.
When adrenaline kicks in, we lose most of our fine motor skills.
And with an active shooter walking from room to room, you could be out of time.
Introducing: The Sleeve - The Perfect Security Device for Outward-Swinging Doors
To combat BOTH of those issues, Fighting Chance Solutions invented the Sleeve.
With the Sleeve, you can hide safe and sound when there’s a shooter on the loose.
Built from 12-gauge carbon steel, the Sleeve is way stronger than your belt, a rope, or anything you can tie a door arm with.
You won’t have to tie a knot that your life depends on.
And the best part?
You can barricade your door in as little as 2 seconds - no fine motor skilled required.
The moment you hear a gunshot, all you have to do is slip this in quietly and hunker down. It will keep you safe long enough for the authorities to arrive.
Nationwide Approval
The Sleeve does not make any permanent modifications to a door, door frame, door lock, or any building structure.
It’s frustrating how building regulations and fire-codes bar most door security products.
But since the Sleeve is 100% installation-free, you don’t have to worry about this anymore.
In fact, many states have approved the Sleeve as a secondary lock - offering waivers so that you can put the Sleeve to use in your classroom.
Why You Need the Rampart
Secure Inward-Swinging Doors Found In Homes and Offices
Strong.
Easy to use.
Fast.
No modifications to the door.
Those three things make up Fighting Chance Solution’s philosophy.
And looking at the Rampart, you’ll find that it is precisely that.
But unlike the Sleeve, which is made for the outward-swinging doors of classrooms, the Rampart barricades your inward-swinging doors.
It’s the perfect security bar to have in your homes and offices.
Not only can it withstand up to 670 lbs of force, but the Rampart only takes all of 2 seconds to set up.
And since you don’t need to install anything, you can keep your doorway pretty and neat when not in use.
Strong, Unique Design
We get it, there are a lot of door security bars in the market.
And most of them are a lot cheaper than the Rampart.
But ask yourself this:
If there’s a serial killer outside your house and all you have is a cheap, flimsy, $20 door bar - how would you feel?
We bet you’d wish you had the Rampart.
Made from solid 3030 aluminum, this door security bar won’t let you down.
Unlike other door bars with bendable bases - the Rampart has a SOLID base that will not budge no matter what you do.
Unlike other door bars that are riddled with holes for adjustments - the Rampart has only a few holes that fit perfectly into standard doors, which gives it extra STRENGTH.
Unlike other door bars with small pushpins to lock the bar in place - the Rampart uses a full security pin, so you NEVER have to worry about it slipping off.
Unlike other door bars that give you a false sense of security - the Rampart will stand up and protect you when you need it the most.
