Skinning Metal Doors and Obtaining a Gap
This video shows a very important skill that is very difficult to describe and teach without having real metal doors. At the same time I truly believe it is one of the most important skills a firefighter needs to know during outward swinging door forcible entry. If the door skins too bad without being overcome, it can prevent you from getting in a very simple door. If you are not familiar with skinning doors, please take the time to watch this one out of all of the other videos.

Thank u guys for all your videos as of late. This not only reminds us of the operations you’ve been teaching for years now but it’s a good reminder (or new info) for firefighters that it’s brain most of the time– not brawn! Thanks I&L’s
