This is a compilation of KZfaq videos addressing how to use a NY Roof Hook. I used this video in a budget request at my department to help justify the purchase of this tool. If you have never used a NY hook watch this video I think you will be impressed.
I created this video with the KZfaq Video Editor ( / editor )

I’m assuming you are referring to the Roof Pro-Bar. I personally like the standard 30 Pro-Bar because the links welded to the shaft don’t get in the way if you need to strike the shoulders of the fork for forcible entry. I do like a chain link welded to the handle of the hook so that the Pro-Bar forks straddle the link and allows the hook and halligan to marry. I am planning on making a video on how to marry the tools in this manner soon. I hope this helps.

What is the purpose of the firefighter at 4:00 hitting the door with the haligan? Weakening the door?

By hitting the door where he did he pushes the metal in a bit and creates what we call a purchase point (basically a gap so the tool can fit in). I know it's a little late for a reply, but saw this and figured it may help.

because it is a metal door he hits it so that the metal will pull back enough to get the wedge of his halligan into the crack so he can leverage it open.

Creating a larger gap for the adz-end to fit.

pattycake350 it dents the outer skin of the door, which pulls it away from the jamb slightly and creates a little bit more of a gap to get the adz in place. it also shocks the door and any locks to possibly loosen them up a little.
