How to use

Position the door bar between the floor and the door or frame at the required height, then extend the bar until it provides firm contact without excessive force. Engage the locking mechanism to secure the chosen length. Adjust the contact points so they align with the door or frame surfaces, ensuring the door is plumb and level. With the bar holding the door in position, proceed to fasten hinges, screws, or other fittings. After work is completed, release the lock, retract the bar, and remove it from the opening.

Usage recommendations

Use the tool on clean, even surfaces for best stability and check alignment with a spirit level. Avoid applying sudden lateral force to the bar while in use and do not exceed the intended support capacity. Store the bar in a dry place to prevent corrosion and inspect contact pads regularly to ensure they protect finishes effectively.
