Training Tree and Props
Braskey Training Tree
- The “Tree” is a multipurpose training prop that can be used in conjunction with the Force Door or stands alone by itself. The Tree will accept various inserts to help expand your knowledge of forcible entry techniques. The Tree has also been built to withstand hours of continuous training.
Built to simulate a standard door, The Hinge Cut allows your members to practice the different rotary saw techniques needed to defeat each hinge. This prop requires two sacrificial 2×8 boards.
Braskey Crush Prop
The crush prop can be attached to our Force Door or stand-alone by itself. The crush prop allows you to practice gapping on real metal doors, and can also be used to practice carriage bolts drive off. Just install your carriage bolts into the piece of a metal door and now you can practice gapping and bolt drive off.
Braskey VES Window
The Braskey Entry Window, also referred to as a Vent-Enter-Search (VES) window, is designed to mimic the sashes and panes difficulties encountered while removing triple paned windows and sashes. This prop utilizes 2 panes of high strength polycarbonate that create the removable window panes. 1/4″ bolts serve to create a quickly reset system that requires accurate strikes to remove. The window dimensions can be specified to fit a current structure, or use our standard 30″x30″ Entry Window creating a narrow 3’0x3’0 opening that fits most windows (some build out required).
Burglar Bars (Pry and Cut Props)
Burglar Bars can be found in both rural or urban settings, as well as, on a residential or commercial structure. It is important for today’s firefighters to be able to defeat these security devices. Braskey Products offers both Prying and Cutting attachments. Both attachments can be pinned high or low on the Tree.
Lock Pull, Cut, and Drive
Attaches to the Tree and allows your members to practice pulling locks, twisting and cutting chains, and driving off padlocks.
Garage Door Holder

**Please note that two Training Trees are required for both the left and right side holders.**
