    Door Breaching tool

    I can't find anything on a Door Breaching Tool.

    I thought it was called a key or church-key.

    Thanks

    Pulaski Fire Axe?

    A "church key" is a simple opener made from a metal strip formed with a rounded end to remove bottle caps, and a v shaped opposing end used to open metal beverage containers before the tab openers. You must be very young.

    Firefighters use these to great affect. Also defeats many padlock and hasp secured doors.

    The Knights armament company called their AR-mounted shotgun attachment, designed for door breaching, a "Masterkey".

    Since then a number of companies have made door breaching standoff's for shotguns, and shotguns designed for door breaching, and named them similar things.

    Masterkey is what I was looking for.
    Church-key is all I could think of.

    Getting old sucks

    Door breaching tool we used for "hard entries" in search warrants was a 6 inch diameter pipe with 2 rebar handles welded on the sides. Pipe was 3 foot long, filled with concrete, welded caps on the end. 2 people used it. One time it took down the door, the frame, and part of the wall. It was a well re-inforced door. There are a couple of places on the internet that sell indestructible doors and if you buy one, in certain places in the U.S., the sale has to be reported to the local police/sheriff. You also have to register it. Can't remember those localities.

    Ax and hammer bounce so don't use them. Cop friend says well placed foot on the steel case door hinge will do it. Concrete/pipe works well on all but vaults.
    Whatever!

    There were also some door jacks made up. a tube with handles and left and right hand threads. when inserted between the jambs and turned they spread the jamb p[en to where the door would easily open. A lot of quiet force could be used with one

    Friend locked herself out, no money to call a locksmith or to repair breaking the window. I took a 10 ton bottle jack and a hunk of 4x4 and put it sideways in the door frame at the lock height. Jacked the frame over 1/2 inch and the door popped open. Released pressure and it settled back. A little scrape on the paint on the inside was the only damage... most door frames now are cheesy spliced lumber that flexes easy.

    Otherwise known as a fence post driver that someone filled and welded up the open end. https://www.google.com/search?q=fenc...w=1517&bih=694

    Thank you! Every time I see someone using that in a movie that's what I say.

    That has to be one of the more foolish things I've ever heard of.

    It is true. They also have to be notified if you put in lexan in your windows to the fire dept. and sometimes to the LEO's. They need to know how they will have to break into your house if they have to.

    I seen somewhere where a swat team was raiding a house and it had a steel reinforced doors and windows. Also had bars on them all. They ended up ramming a device through the walls and toar off the whole front of the house. It worked like those bolts with the spring loaded tabs that spring out to tighten it in a hole.
