Method of Entry
Course Overview
Method of Entry (MoE) training is a specialist programme designed to instruct law enforcement and fire and rescue service teams in the skills required to forcibly access buildings, secured areas and vehicles.
The course focuses on the safe, rapid, and effective techniques and tools used to gain entry to locked, barricaded, or otherwise restricted locations. This training is critical in high-pressure scenarios such as emergency incidents where speed and controlled access are essential.
The training covers all aspects of manual breaching, using tools such as battering rams, crowbars, bolt cutters, and sledgehammers to gain entry through doors, windows, and gates. Please get in contact to discuss options available for your team or organisation.
