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 5 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 13 breaching
scenarios can be simulated as defined below:

After closing the door, the desired type and quantity of BTI pins are inserted into the
sockets as shown below. The pin should insert a distance of approximately ¼” into the
socket when fully seated. Due to stresses and strains imparted upon the door structure
during breaching, slight misalignments will occur over time. Accordingly, the system
has been designed such that the amount of engagement into the socket is not extremely
critical.
Once the door has been breached, the broken pins may not fall out or may partially fall
out. A screw driver, or similar tool may be used (as shown) to remove the spent pins
from the opposite direction of installation.
