A device and method for the protection of individuals in a room having an outward swinging door is presented. The device includes a central chamber for the surrounding of a door handle, a first flange for extension from the central chamber and contacting the door, and a second flange for extension from the central chamber and contacting the door frame. The two flanges are relatively parallel and create a binding force around the handle as the door is opened, such that the door is prevented from opening. An optional slot is included to accommodate handles with levers. In operation, the device is lowered over the handle and held in place by gravity. It symmetric design allows it to function with both left handed and right handed opening outward doors.
