Let's talk Forcible Entry! Forcible Entry is an essential fire ground function that requires a firefighter to access a locked door, a wall, or a window. Firefighters usually use a pair of irons, which involves a flathead axe that is paired (or married) to a halligan bar. Firefighters insert the forks of the Halligan into the door jamb and use an axe and leverage to advance the forks deeper until they have "defeated" the jamb or advanced past it and can pry the door open.

FORCIBLE ENTRY FRIDAY - How big is your arc? We certainly know how to get into tight spaces! A larger arc will be harder to slip in and also create more friction when there is not a sufficient gap. This will cause the user to steer the tool a lot more to get behind the jamb. Now if only we could have more halligans made sooner! It’s coming! We are not messing around this year and we can’t wait to show you! Innovative Solutions 🔥 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐮𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝐦 BUILT FOR THE JOB. SHARE THIS! #firemaulto
