Breaching Technologies Ram Breaching Door - Manual (Page 6)

Three types of pins are available for use with the BTI training door:
Wood Type - These pins simulate forces found when breaching a typical wood
construction door/frame. This type of pin would normally be used to simulate a
residential building breach.
Metal Type - These pins simulate forces found when breaching a typical metal
construction door/frame. This type of pin would normally be used to simulate a
commercial building breach.
Reinforced Type - These pins simulate excessive forces found when trying to
breach a Reinforced door/frame. This type of pin would normally be used to train
students on “secondary or plan B” scenarios. These pins offer approximately
50% more resistance than the metal type pins. These type pins are breachable,
given enough force. It is suggested that 3 pins be utilized in this type of training
scenario.
Although all three types of pins are identical in size, designation of each type of pin can
be determined by color. As shown below, left to right are Wood, Metal, and Reinforced
type pins. These are color coded clear, blue, and red respectively.
Breaching Door. Your new breaching door has been engineered to simulate many
scenarios for forced entry training. As previously discussed, 3 different door construction
types can be simulated utilizing the 3 different types of engineered pins. Additionally, 1
to 3 lock sets can be simulated utilizing the pin sockets located on the backside of the
breaching door.
When used in conjunction with the 3 types of breaching pins, a total of 7 breaching
scenarios can be simulated as defined below:
