Through meticulous research, comprehensive data sources and years of experience, we are able to visually inspect most doors and identify:
- What forcible entry techniques it is susceptible to;
- What forcible entry techniques your threat actors are likely to attempt;
- What skill level is required and how likely a criminal is to succeed;
- How long it will take to force that door open;
- How much noise it will make, or other aspects that will tip off your guard force or passers by;
- What forensic evidence will be left;
- How to fix it: the options, their costs and effectiveness.
Most common criminals will force a door rather than attempt any more covert or skilful entry like bypassing or lock picking. Testing a door's resistance to forcible entry is not usually possible without destroying the door, however! We can help you identify weak points without the need for destructive testing.
E.g. - a thin decorative wooden frame will split after a single kick to the door! If you have anything like this on a critical door, replace or reinforce it. If you aren't sure, call us to perform an assessment.
