Push Bars Whitneyville, CT – Whitneyville CT Locksmith Store
During the Victorian era in England, there was an incident that took place in Sunderland. In 1883, 183 children died because a door had been bolted at the bottom of a stairwell, leading to a stampede and asphyxiation. This was the Victoria Hall disaster, which soon became known as the worst disaster of its kind in British history. This lead to the creation of the panic bolts - an ancestor to the modern day push bars!
