Department-wide, Forcible Entry Training. This week, crews sharpened their skills with hands-on forcible door entry training - an essential technique for gaining access during emergencies. Training like this ensures were always ready to respond quickly and effectively when every second counts. #CyFairFd #ForcibleEntry #FireTraining | Cy-Fair Fire Department

Forcible Entry Friday! Pulling an outward opening door is all about getting the fork or adze (shown in this case) around the door without skinning the backside of the door. When training with two people, communication is key in keeping pressure to exploit the gap and get the adze around the door. And then -- full commitment on stepping back and breaking the lock. Now go force some doors. Breach Ours. Save Theirs. #firstresponders #forcibleentry #calfire #breaching #fireacademy #firefighter #fire

Loid Tool from @motisfirerescue for forcible entry. Nice thing about the tool is it comes in a holster and has a molle attachment. For our brothers and sister in law enforcement these are not bad tools to have on your person as well. Check out Motis Fire Rescue and see what they have to offer! | National Fire Radio
