    Forcible Entry on Exit Hardware By Samuel Hittle Forcible entry tactics are limited only by the imagination of the firefighter seeking to gain entry. Conversely, security is generally only limited by the imagination of the one seeking to secure an environment. Certain occupancy types, however, have restrictions set forth by local fire code-limiting measures occupants may take. For this reason, knowing what the local code specifies, especially pertaining to non-residential doors and their hardware, can aid you in identifying an appropriate forcible entry plan for gaining access to particular structures--as long as the occupant adheres to the code and laws, of course. Why Panic or Fire Exit Hardware? Chicago experienced the deadliest building fire in United States history in 1903 at the Iroquois Theater; 603 people died. The number of lives lost is largely attributed to the fact that the exits were locked, blocked, or had inward-swinging doors. This unfortunate event resulted in the rewriting of the fire code to mandate that egress doors swing outward and to prohibit them from being locked or blocked when occupied. The fire also led to the development of the exit device by Carl Prinzler. He sought to create a device that would allow a door to be locked from the outside, maintaining a constant state of security, but that could be readily opened from the inside when force was applied in the direction of travel toward the egress side. Other multiple-fatality fires, like the Lakeview Grammar School in Colinwood, Ohio. (176 fatalities) and the Triangle Shirt Waist Factory in New York City, New York, (146 fatalities) reinforced the need for this hardware to be installed in public occupancies.
