The Forcible Entry Training Station (FETS®)
Designed by experienced firefighters and
manufacturers of commercial
storefronts, enables firefighters to repeatedly and
systematically experience
a through-the-lock forcible entry procedure. The FETS® tool
provides effective training because it is a prop designed to put
actual forcible entry tools in the hands of firefighters. Skills
can only be gained through hands-on training.
Complete with the locking mechanisms most frequently
encountered by firefighters in real world scenarios.
Participants will be able to actually pull the locking
cylinder with their own equipment and defeat the revealed lick by
manipulating the diverse locking mechanisms with various firefighter
tools.
Firefighters training with FETS® will
be able to use the following tools:
Pick-Tool: "K" "A" or Officers tool
Flat-Headed Ax and Halligan
Hydraulic Tools: "Rabbit" tool Hydra-Ram or Porta-Power
