I picked up this simple, yet dynamic tip from a friend on Yonkers Rescue 1. It is a simple spring clamp, and I have carried it now for a few years. It hangs on the back of my turnout coat and is never in the way. Push comes to shove and I have to squeeze somewhere, it will pop off. It weighs next to nothing. Basically, I dont even know it is there anymore. It can be used for many purposes on the fireground, a door chock, a garage door chock, to secure items, etc. Really, you are limited by your imagination and trial and error. It costs a few dollars at your local hardware store, Home Depot, or Harbor Freight. It IS important to get one BIG enough to fit a door. Simple and effective. My favorite.
