Advanced Forcible Entry & Through the Lock

This workshop we will continue on from our conventional irons work to adding leverage to our systems for those harder doors. We will also introduce students to some of the tools required to go through the lock.

Students will look at the many different locks we face in the fire service and the different ways to attack and defeat the lock itself. This valuable skill can not only speed up entry for your crews in tough accesses structures, but it can also limit the damage done to the door allowing for a faster lock up and minimal charge and inconvenience to the public we serve.
