This Mini Forcible Entry Door is a 3D-printed scale model (approx. 1:10) of a classic breaching door used in firefighter and rescue training, only much smaller and desk-friendly.

It works both as a display piece and as a dry-training prop:

  • You can set a mini Halligan tool into the gap, flex the door, and practice placing the wedge.
  • Please note: the stiffness of the door is not comparable to a metal forcible entry door so training may not be 100% accurate.

Assembly

The model is printed in multiple parts and can be assembled easily.
Additional parts required:

  • 2 × M3x20 screws
  • 2 × M3 self-locking nuts
  • A few drops of super glue
  • Reinforcement pin: wooden skewer (higher stability but impossible to break) or balsa wood stick (recommended for extra realistic training).

Step-by-step Assembly

  1. Attach the protector to the door:
    • Apply 2–3 drops of super glue into the recessed groove on the door.
    • Slide the protector piece into the groove until it fits snugly.
  2. Mount the door to the frame:
    • Screw the door leaf to the frame using the M3 screws and nuts.
  3. Prepare the base:
    • Glue the floor plates into the ground plate.
  4. Assemble the frame onto the base:
    • Insert the door frame onto the pegs of the ground plate.
    • No glue needed – the fit is tight enough to hold securely.
  5. Finished!
    • Your Mini Forcible Entry Door is ready for display or dry-training.

Print Recommendations

For best durability and functionality, the following settings are recommended:

  • Main structural parts (door leaf, frame, ground plate):
    • 6–7 perimeters (wall lines)
    • 30% infill (e.g. gyroid)
    • 5 top layers / 5 bottom layers
    • Brim around the part for better adhesion
    • Support only required for the door leaf (standard support is recommended, do not use tree-support)
  • Accessories (Halligan tool, wedge):
    • 100% infill (concentric) for maximum stability
    • Layer height: 0.12 mm for high detail
  • Floor plates:
    • Standard print settings are fine
    • Layer height: 0.2 mm
  • Supports:
    • Only required for the door leaf (use standard support settings)
  • Used Filament:
    • Black: eSun ePLA-Lite
    • Red: eSun ePLA-Lite, Fire Engine Red
    • Grey: eSun PLA Basic
    • Yellow: SUNLU PLA Matte, Bright Yellow
