    Abstract: The present invention is a restraining assembly which prevents a potential burglar from lifting an outward swing door from its respective doorframe after removing the exposed hinge pins. A female bushing is provided which is recessed into the hinge side door edge and expands to interlock within the door at the door edge as a male pin is fully engage within said female member. A head portion of the male member is left protruding and extending beyond the hinge side door edge allowing said protrusion to enter an opposing recess cavity in the adjoining doorframe upon the door being rotated to a closed position. Whereas one restraining assembly itself will prevent an outward swing door from being removed, it is understood that two or more assemblies may be utilized for added durability should a burglar exert a more vigorous force in an effort to pry out the door.
