Bar Facts
Security bars, or burglar bars as they are often called, when installed without quick-release mechanisms, trap victims during fires and can make rescue impossible. In 1995, five children died in an Oakland house fire because of burglar bars that could not be opened. This led to the introduction of AB 3131 and AB 3026. Both bills became law in 1996.

WHY SHOULD I BE CONCERNED ABOUT BURGLAR BARS?
