Police handcuffs for professional use

Police handcuffs are designed for professional use. They must be robust, reliable and easy to use. They must be able to be put on quickly in order to maintain control in critical situations. At the same time, it is important that you can close the handcuffs securely without injuring the person.

Maximum security with security handcuffs

In the security sector, the requirements for handcuffs are particularly high. The KH Security Rigid Double Lock handcuff is an outstanding example of a specially developed handcuff for this sector. It is ideal for carrying out arrests and transfers and is preferred by the police, prison service, customs or private security services. The rigid locking mechanism severely restricts the freedom of movement of the handcuffed person and the double lock mechanism further increases security. These handcuffs offer an optimal combination of robustness, reliability and security.

Handcuffs as a cost-effective solution

Handcuffs provide a practical and cost-effective solution for short-term securing of people. They are particularly useful in situations where a quick response is required or a large number of people need to be secured. Handcuffs are lightweight, space-saving and extremely reliable.

The use should be practiced: How to put on handcuffs correctly

Handcuffs or wrist restraints are used to restrict a person's movements. They are usually used to bring the hands together behind the back or in front of the stomach. To do this, the handcuffs are placed around the wrists and locked in place. You can only open them with a security key. This should be kept in a safe place, because handcuffs are made of a very hard material and cannot be opened easily.

When can I handcuff a person?

There must be good reasons to handcuff a person. Usually the person is dangerous or there is a risk of them fleeing. Nevertheless, human dignity must be preserved. This means that you should not hurt the person when handcuffing them and that the key must be kept safe so that the "lockdown device" can be removed at any time when it is no longer needed.

Expert tip: Cable ties (cable strips) as an alternative to handcuffs

Special operations commandos also often use cable ties, as they can be carried in larger quantities and stored in operational clothing than would be possible with handcuffs. Since they also provide a "bomb-proof" hold, they are a good replacement. But ASMC also offers models of "cable ties" specially tailored to this area of ​​application, which, for example, have a connecting piece in the middle.

Questions: Handcuffs

How do I care for handcuffs?

For handcuffs, the so-called "browning" is a good option, which basically means oiling. There is a special oil that you can also use to treat handcuffs.

Is it legal to wear handcuffs in public?

Yes.

How can I open handcuffs without the key?

This shouldn't be so easy, of course, but it is possible, especially with handcuffs available for private use. What you need: A hair clip or paper clip. According to some instructions that you can find online, an important requirement is that the shackle can be swung all the way through when no wrist is in the way. With some cuffs, you can then simply bend the spring that is responsible for locking them to the side from the inside and thus release the shackle directly without a key.
