Abstract
A door barricade apparatus includes a blade with a barb at a distal end and a tang at a proximal end. The barb is configured to be disposed within an aperture of a strike plate. A body has a top and a bottom, and the body is operably coupled to the tang of the blade. A paddle is moveably coupled to the body and is configured to selectively move between a first orientation substantially flush with the top of the body and a second orientation protruding from the top of the body. A handle is coupled to the bottom of the body and is configured to keep a user's fingers away from a door jamb. An actuator is in cooperation with the paddle, and is configured to selectively position the paddle between the first orientation and the second orientation.
