This is a great option for storefront force entry. One major drawback is just getting to the door prior to another member smashing the glass. It allows for quick entry while still maintaining door control. This technique can even be performed solo.
Drive the adz between the door and frame, prying down, this exposes the Adams Rite's throw. Open a gap large enough to allow the metal cutting blade to cut the lock's throw without binding. Remember, aluminum doors yield more flex than we think. This flex allows the possibility of conventional forcible entry without fracturing glass. Through the lock is also a great and rapid entry option. The locks on these doors tend to be the easiest to pull and manipulate.
