Breaching Door Installation
The installation of the BTI training door is straightforward and
most likely self-explanatory by visual examination.
Caution: Rounds fired during the breaching operation may
damage nearby property and personnel in the line of fire. The
door has been designed to promote the glancing impact of
rounds on the structural members, and as a result, ricochets of
rounds are highly likely. If you are unsure of your mounting
methods and location, please consult a professional.
Free Standing. The Free Standing Kit may be installed to allow
the door to be utilized in a multitude of locations and scenarios.
The accompanying diagram shows the assembly method and
mounting hole locations for a typical BTI door system.
Your freestanding kit includes stakes for anchoring on soft
surfaces such as gravel and asphalt. Alternate methods using “ram
set” or similar methods may be used on hard surfaces.
Wall Installation. Installation of the BTI training door into an
existing or new frame type structure is shown in the accompanying
diagram. Provisions for mounting the training door in a “pre-
hung” fashion have been provided in the four metal mounting ears
and the frame guard as shown.
Alternate means of mounting such as face mounting or welding are
up to the purchaser. However, BTI Inc. cannot warrantee
products, which are mounted in ways that weaken the frame or
structure, or are inconsistent with our design and testing.
