    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for securing a door including a security assembly comprising at least one frame member with a slot. The security assembly may include a blade at least partially received in the slot and an actuator within the cavity. The blade may substantially traverse the length of the edge surface of the door in the closed position and be extendable from the slot toward the edge surface. The actuator may be configured to move the blade between a retracted position and an extended position. The security assembly includes an endcap configured to cover a corresponding edge surface of the door and including an opposing well slot configured to at least partially receive the blade when the blade is in the extended position, and thereby prevent movement of the door.
