The first doors were originally designed and fabricated for use by firefighter cadets at a large training academy. After being forced thousands of times, it was time for other firefighters around the country and the world to be able to practice forcible entry skills on a realistic and proven prop.

Our company knows that the biggest part of a business is taking care of our customers. As firefighters we understand our customers needs. We know what firefighters want and that is practical training that means something. We enjoy meeting firefighters from around the world and are always open to new suggestions on how to better suit you. We are firefighters first and foremost and believe in what we are doing.

1. There Are No Substitutions For Forcing Real Doors!
Unfortunately many firefighters do not have the option of forcing a real door because getting acquired structures is difficult. If you are doing large recruit or training classes, it becomes even more complicated to allow each trainee an opportunity to force a real door.

2. Use The Inforcer Simulator Or Other Realistic Props.
A priority for any department should be training and our company's main goal is to increase quality forcible entry training. The Inforcer has a proven history for effective, high quality, practical skills training. Not only this, but the Inforcer is great for forcible exit and RIC skills, plus the inward and outward swinging evolutions satisfy the NFPA 1001 requirements for forcible entry in recruit programs.

Take a thoughtful look at what is available for training in forcible entry. Others in the fire service have designed props that may better fit your department needs. The most significant factor is to make practice a high priority, to use something as realistic as possible, and to train often.

3. Build Your Own Props.
We are happy to share our knowledge if you would like to build a prop of your own. Our photos show several of the props we've designed and made. In our combined training experience, we've also used many different types of training props.

4. Forcible Entry Class Instruction.
Our company can do mobile classes on forcible entry. We come to your location and bring The Inforcer simulator, an overhead door cutting prop, a pod that has burglar bars, a baseball bat swing evolution, some lock stations, and do a through-the-lock portion.

Because mobility of these props is limited, this option is not ideal for all departments. If you have a large department or are limited because of location, consider bringing in one of our instructors to do a train-the-trainer session.
