What is the first step in door procedures when arming or disarming the door?
Correct Answer:
Stop, Drop and Review
Explanation:
The first step in door procedures when arming or disarming is to Stop, Drop and Review. This safety pause makes you take a moment to assess the situation before any action: you stop what you’re doing, drop into a safe posture to observe the doorway and surrounding area, and review what you’re about to change and who is nearby. That pause helps verify you’ve got the right door, that no one is in the doorway or at risk, and that you have the proper authority to proceed. Only after this review should you move on to confirming the door status and then arming or disarming. Opening the door would skip the essential safety check, and notifying the captain or just “checking and confirming” are steps that come after you have established a safe context through the initial pause.
