Disclosed is a door barricade for use as a home security device that serves to prevent a door from being opened by an intruder. A rigid, elongated bar extends horizontally across a doorway so as to physically prevent the door from opening. The elongated bar includes an L-shaped bracket on each end. Each bracket comprises a first section to be positioned flush against the wall on opposing sides of a doorway, and a second section to which an end of the elongated bar is secured. Bolts can be mounted on opposing sides of a doorway, and the first section of each bracket includes apertures thereon that are capable of receiving the bolts. Once a bolt is inserted through the aperture on the bracket, the shaft of the bolt can be positioned within a narrow channel on the aperture to removably secure the door barricade to the wall.
