You're probably getting downvoted because your response makes a couple of seemingly broad assumptions.ġ) Most obviously, you assume that they haven't already built rapport with the local locksmith/s for use during non-emergency situations.Ģ) As an EMS, I can tell you that seconds count. Take this with a grain of salt because I am neither a locksmith, nor a firefighter (though I was provided EMS training in the military). Mosler- Fun fact: They made doors for Nuclear Bunkers If there is a demand for it, I'll post photos from our drill. But thinking about this now, maybe the concrete will protect the "kid".īut that's why I wanted to pick our collective brains. We won't use our oxy-acetylene or an exo-thermic torch.because we don't want to "cook" the kid. We don't think through the hinges will really do anything. He thinks knocking off the dial you can manipulate the locking mechanism to pop the door. My Lieutenant wants to go through the lock mechanism. Angle Grinder, then jaws, break concrete/brick, angle grinder again. My go-to move would be the gain access through the back of the safe. But I'm sure some folks are in both groups. I'd post this in r/Lockpicking but their rules seem pretty strict as it is a "functioning lock". But I wanted to give our guys something fun and interesting (sorta brain teaser) to work on. Obviously calling a locksmith would be our go-to move in a real-world scenario. Sometimes in a sporting goods store or something. My research has shown that the typical call is usually a Gun safe that kids get trapped into. Has anyone done a drill like this? I've been down the rabbit hole on calls like these. Our Heavy Rescue Company will have to gain access to the safe and get our "kid" out. The drill will consist of a "kid" stuck in a safe. I was thinking about doing some outside-the-box/Low-Frequency High-Risk type of drill.

So as Training Captain, I've procured a safe in an acquired building.
