In this week’s Humpday Hangout, Bill Gustin, Mike Dugan, and the rest of the panel will be talking about strategic considerations for forcible entry on overhead doors and roll-down security gates. They will consider techniques as well as strategy, considering why firefighters would enter a commercial occupancy through an overhead doorway rather than taking a faster and easier route through a man door. They will be joined by Ft. Lauderdale (FL) Chief Of Training Steve Shaw, who has researched hurricane wind-rated overhead door construction and practicing forcible entry techniques. They also pay tribute to late FDIC instructor and Fire Engineering writer Greg Havel.
