Taking a halligan tool to a door to force entry into a structure may be the quickest method for gaining access, but it’s not always necessary. Pot-of-meat calls are examples of incidents where forcing entry and doing significant damage to the door, doorway, and lock might not be the best approach. In such instances, through-the-lock methods of forcing entry are more appropriate. Additionally, according to Howard A. Chatterton, author ofVolunteer Training Drills–A Year of Weekly Drills: “You can also create a good public image if you cause no major or expensive damage to the structure.”
This week’s Drill of the Week reviews some methods that can help you develop proficiency in opening door locks while at the same time increasing safety, ensuring damage control, and creating good public relations.
为此训练的准备比其他一些钻头更多。它要求培训官参观锁匠，找到锁并安装锁。道具应至少提前一个月组装。
建议的材料包括Fire Engineering’sForcible Entry Video #2,Through the Lock: Cylinders and Key Tools; a door with locks; an Adams Rite lock; shove knives; and a K- tool.
Preparation includes visiting locksmiths to obtain samples (small sections of doors with locks mounted to them). You can also get an old door and mount several locks of different types along the edges. Obtain at least one Adams Rite lock mechanism, and mount it in a door or a section of 2 ×6 wood. Select a door at the station where you can demonstrate and have members practice using the shove knife. Try to schedule the drill just before an auto extrication drill, so members can practice opening the doors of a donated car with a Slim Jim.
