Police Handcuffs

Handcuffs & Restraints for Police, Military, Border Patrol, and Corrections

LA Police Gear carries a wide selection of police handcuffs for duty, patrol, corrections, security, military, and tactical use. Handcuffs are a core restraint tool for securing individuals who have been arrested or detained, and the right pair depends on your training, assignment, agency policy, and the situations you expect to handle. This category includes major handcuff types and finishes, including chain cuffs, hinged cuffs, nickel finish options, double-locking designs, and related handcuff accessories.

Different cuff styles serve different roles on a duty belt.

Chain handcuffs are the most common style and use two wrist loops connected by a short chain, giving officers a versatile option for a wide range of restraint situations. Hinged handcuffs reduce wrist movement more than chain cuffs and can provide additional control, though their more limited fit range may make chain cuffs or linked sets a better choice for some larger subjects. Double-lock handcuffs add a secondary locking function that helps prevent the cuffs from tightening further after placement, which can be important during extended restraint or transport.

Keyless handcuffs use a built-in release mechanism rather than a traditional key, offering a different access method while requiring careful consideration for the intended use environment.

Use this section to build or refresh a practical restraint setup around the way you work. Consider how the cuffs will ride on your belt or carrier, whether you need an extra key, and whether your assignment calls for a compact everyday patrol option, a more restrictive hinged style, or accessories that keep your restraints accessible under stress. Common selection points include:

• Chain handcuffs for general-purpose patrol and broad fit flexibility
• Hinged handcuffs for reduced wrist movement and added control
• Double-locking handcuffs to help prevent over-tightening after application
• Nickel finish and other duty-oriented finishes for uniform and gear matching
• Handcuff keys, cases, and pouches for carry, access, and organization

Whether you are replacing worn duty cuffs, adding a backup set, or outfitting a new duty belt, LAPG makes it easy to compare police handcuffs and restraint accessories built for professional use.
