Method of Entry Systems for Realistic Breaching Training

Ballistex Method of Entry (MOE) systems provide safe, repeatable and realistic breaching training for agencies preparing for forced entry scenarios. Designed for indoor ranges, modular training facilities and tactical houses, these systems allow operators to practise shotgun, mechanical and explosive entry techniques with controlled outcomes and consistent performance.

Built for lock, snib and hinge-focused breaching drills, each system supports high tempo training while maintaining safety around doors, frames and structural components. Ballistex MOE solutions are compatible with common breaching tools and provide reliable behaviour across repeated training cycles.

  • Safe, repeatable breaching training for defence and police
  • Supports mechanical, shotgun and explosive entry techniques
  • Designed for realistic lock, snib and hinge engagement
  • Suitable for indoor facilities and tactical entry houses

12G Breaching Door Kit

A purpose-built method-of-entry training door engineered for agencies that require a durable, modular breaching solution using 12-gauge shotgun blank ammunition.  The door is designed for exceptional longevity – capable of enduring more than twenty-five full training cycles—while all components exposed directly to the training blast are fully replaceable.

The result is a system that resets quickly, minimizes downtime, and delivers consistent training value.  The door’s ballistic tolerance also ensures it remains secure and stable when used in live-fire training environments where small-arms calibre ammunition is used, supporting a controlled and safe setting for a variety of instructional scenarios.  With predictable component behaviour, rapid part replacement, and rugged materials suited to high-frequency use, this modular platform allows instructors to focus on effective, repeatable learning without sacrificing efficiency or safety

Features

Modular – All breach-affected parts are removable and replaceable for rapid resets between iterations.

Breaching Options – Snib only training practice and assessment variant, or snib and hinge breaching.

Cost-Effective – Long-life reusable frame paired with inexpensive sacrificial inserts reduces total training cost.

Multi-Calibre Training Compatibility – The reinforced structure is designed to remain secure in environments where various small-arms calibre training munitions may be in use, supporting safe instructional setups.

Safe Engagement Standoff – Built to align with standard training protocols that define appropriate minimum safe positioning for participants.

Predictable, Controlled Failure – Sacrificial elements are engineered to deform or release in a safe, consistent manner.

Rapid Reset Capability – Minimal-tool or tool-free component swap improves throughput and training efficiency.

Explosive Breaching Door Kit

An advanced method-of-entry training door is purpose-built for facilities that employ approved explosive breaching training tools, such as roll-up or snib-type training charges, within controlled instructional environments.

Its modular design ensures that only the sacrificial breach components absorb the effects of the training charge, while the main door body remains fully reusable for well over twenty-five evolutions. All blast-affected inserts are designed for quick replacement, enabling rapid resets and uninterrupted training flow.

The door’s primary structure is manufactured from ballistic-tolerant materials, selected specifically to avoid generating secondary fragmentation or splash when exposed to small-arms calibre impacts in mixed-training scenarios. This allows instructors to safely run integrated programs while maintaining predictable performance, reliable containment, and consistent failure characteristics. The result is a professional, repeatable, and efficient training asset that enhances capability while controlling operating costs.

Feature List (High-Level)

Modular – All elements affected by the training charge are removable and quickly replaceable for fast turnaround.

Two Variants – Roll-up charge or snib attack options

Cost-Effective – A long-life reusable core with low-cost sacrificial blast components reduces overall training expenditure.

Explosive-Training Compatible – Designed for controlled use with recognized breaching-training charge formats under instructor supervision.

Ballistic-Tolerant Materials – Core structure resists small-arms calibre impacts without producing hazardous secondary fragments, supporting safe mixed-discipline training.

Predictable, Controlled Failure – Sacrificial components deform or release in a consistent and safe manner suited to instructional environments.

Safe Standoff Integration – Supports standard instructor protocols that define appropriate minimum safe distances for charge placement and student positioning.

Rapid Reset Capability – Quick-swap inserts minimize downtime and keep training tempo high.
