The Firefighter Swipe Tool is an alternative way of gaining access without causing damage. Created by an FDNY Firefighter, The Firefighter Swipe Tool's design allows for more versatility and flexibility than a traditional shove knife.
This tool works on slam locks/knob locks that you would find on an inward opening apartment/house entry door, it does not work on deadbolts. The high-strength, bendable Mylar allows this tool to wrap around the door with ease allowing quick access to those in need.
