Our
handcuffs come in various styles for different purposes. We offer
chain cuffs for increased mobility as well as
hinged cuffs for better control. Many of our models feature a
double locking mechanism, preventing accidental tightening and improving safety.
Hand restraints are used in many situations, from
security training and self-defense to
film and theater props. Some collect them as
display pieces, while others use them in
role-playing and BDSM. Whatever the purpose, we offer robust and reliable options in our selection.

Swedish RPS-approved restraints – what’s required?
Handcuffs used professionally in Sweden, such as by security guards, must comply with
RPS guidelines. They should be made of
metal, preferably
stainless steel, and be of the same type used by the police. To ensure durability and safety, they should also meet the
NIJ Standard-0307.01, a testing standard established by the U.S. National Institute of Justice. However, RPS does not specify brands or models but instead focuses on function and security. For private individuals, there are no specific restrictions on owning handcuffs, but their use may be regulated depending on the context. If you are looking for
strong and reliable handcuffs, we offer several high-quality and functional options.
What does a double locking mechanism on handcuffs mean?
A double locking mechanism means that the handcuffs can be secured in two steps. First, they are locked around the wrists as usual, but then an additional lock can be activated to prevent further tightening. This enhances safety and reduces the risk of injury.
What types of restraints are available?
There are several types of restraints, including chain cuffs, hinged cuffs, and rigid cuffs. Chain models provide more freedom of movement, while hinged and rigid models offer greater control.
Can handcuffs be used for training and self-defense?
Yes, handcuffs are often used in security training and self-defense exercises, particularly by security personnel and instructors. They are a useful tool for practicing restraint and control techniques.
Are handcuffs legal to own in Sweden?
Yes, it is legal to buy and own handcuffs in Sweden. However, there are regulations on how and where they can be used, particularly in cases involving law enforcement and security personnel.
