Behind Barz Introduction

I love the way a random request has led to such a business! Did they come to you because you had previous experience with making products for a bdsm market?

You are definitely on my list of possibles when my current money flow issues are resolved. I was going to move to a metal device six months ago but 'life' keeps rearing its pimply head and getting in the way. I like the complete system with enclosed cage but if I ever do get to spend that sort of money I think a personalized fitting would be almost obligatory! Unfortunately for now I am being kept in a holy trainer for the foreseeable future.

By the way you have a bad link in your post which due to the five minute edit rule you won't be able to change now. The link should be http://behindbarz.co.uk/testimonials/ somehow yours has ended up with a ] on the end corrupting it.

 

The random request was by me! i had seen some of the totally un- kink work that this chap had created and took my life in my hands and popped in to see if he could help me come up with a new idea i had for a belt. The chap had no idea these things even existed back then and it was with some trepidation that i showed him what i was referring to and it sort of went on from there with many sneaky trips back and forth to his vanilla workshop where we kept getting interrupted with folks walking in off the street with various metal bits and bobs that needed welding etc. Things have certainly moved on from those days in his new unit specially fitted out for this new thriving venture.

 

That is brilliant! You were so brave to approach them that way. It makes it even better knowing there is a back story to the product like that and less scary going to actually see them for a fitting. I know that what I do isn't weird but I get the feeling most people I know wouldn't agree. To decide to just go and talk to them about your requirements was something I am guessing most of us wouldn't do.

 

Ooh stop it you are making me blush...........actually more than i must have been when i first ventured into the factory unit to ask the question. It seems so long ago now and i knew if i never plucked up the courage to ask then i would have it haunt me for the rest of my life as i had a burning need to get some of my ideas put into reality. Joe and the other staff at Behindbarz are really friendly and helpful and considering none of them had any idea there were things like i was describing out there is testament to the fact of just how open minded and non judgmental they all are. If you do want to visit them at their unit i can assure you they are truly professional and you will be at ease as soon as you meet them all, they have a nice area with some of their items that you can actually pick up and handle to get a taste of just what they can create with your help. The belts are a work of art there is no mistaking that and as someone who has worn many different makes the quality is top notch. Keep an eye open on their website as things are coming out all the time to further expand and update their ever growing list of items they can and will create.

 

Behind bars had been great to work with so far. I ordered my belt last month and hope to have it in a few weeks.
Stroppy thanks for being brave and getting this company in the market. After many belts and 5 years of trying I decided this was worth a shot. Since cages are too painful for night wear and escape issues with my my-steel. I think this is the perfect solution.
I ordered the belt and cage (matte black) and very excited. So far the reviews seem very positive so great start.
I will be sure to share my thoughts as soon as it arrives!

 

What a fantastic weekend i got to spend Saturday at Joes BehindBarz chastity belt workshop and got to watch him and his team build me a new full stainless steel belt up from scratch exactly to my chosen style while i waited. The process is fascinating from a flat strip of various laser cut pieces which are then miraculously formed by hand over various formers and guides into a rough shape which are then coaxed into the final shapes and expertly welded into position by Joe himself, then all the individual items are sent off into a huge circulating trough which vibrating stones which polish off all the edges and marks and after several hours in there they are then transferred into another trough with even finer materials which give the final highly polished appearance when they come out again several hours later. I was lucky in that having made up my cock tube and outer cage assemblies and oval shaped cock ring we swapped them for the same items that had already been in the troughs and so were ready for assembly or else i would have had to go back in a couple of days time. Joes son had started the process of assembling my belt section and picked out the correct size and began smoothing off all the edges first with a very fine sanding disc as i did not want a silicone liner for my belt (they are available though in different colours) after which he then took the belt and polished it up on a buffer wheel to a mirror like finish, he handed it to Joe who then bent the belt into the exact shape to make the front vee section mate together perfectly where the locks fitted not an easy task but if you saw joe you would realise how easy it is for him with his huge hands! lol. Then it was time for the crutch rod fixing to be threaded both ends on a lathe followed by again expert bending to a rough shape to fit the majority of users who might need it. By just after lunchtime i was excitedly carrying the belt up the stairs to his private changing room with two full height mirrored walls to try it on. You have to bear in mind this is the first fully finished belt i have actually tried on myself having been always testing prototypes and mock ups in various stages of developments so this was something i had been looking forward to for so long and it did not disappoint. I stripped off in private and began fitting the ice cold stainless steel belt around my waist squirming each time it touched my skin but then suddenly it reaches your body temperature and it is like nothing you can imagine as it clicks into place, next went the oval shaped cock ring section again this is a new for me experience having only tried the usual round ones before. The oval ring is certainly more forgiving and fitted nicely onto the locking posts closely followed by the cock tube which effortlessly slides over the penis and clicks onto the posts, while i moved around looking at the belt shining in the mirrors i noticed all the leather items hung on the door along with a whip etc and of course felt a bit of a tingle in the cock tube department with excitement but of course there was no more room for expansion in there anyway as i was already filling it nicely before. Having posed around for a while i decided to now fit the new outer cage as well along with the solid crutch rod which i really prefer as there is absolutely no way its coming off without the key and it fits so snugly between the butt cheeks with no discomfort at all. I fitted the front threaded section through the outer cage and tightened up the udjuster until the thread poked out the other side and then slipped the other end of the rod through the top fixing point on the rear of the waistband and again fitted the locking adjuster post onto this until the thread just showed through the other end and then slipped the post into its slot, this leaves the outer cage hanging through your legs ready to pull up frontwards and slip into place over the other sections already fitted. I screwed on the center threaded nut which holds everything safely in place while you adjust a little if need be and then finally applied the two little radial locks into place and turned the key. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! honestly it feels awesome the outer cage was the one with the closed sides at the bottom of the cage which covers the side access to the area the testicles sit and it has reduced the amount of access that some folk had said they had before with the fully open style that comes as standard. I quickly dressed and went back downstairs and chatted with joe and his wife and it was only after about fifteen minutes that they asked how the belt had been and had i brought it back down with me it is so discreet under my tight jeans they hadnt noticed i was still wearing it. I was so impressed with how low profile it is now i even dropped my trousers down to my tight boxer shorts to show Joes wife just how inconspicuous it is once fitted. She commented how you couldnt tell it was there at all and she is right you cannot, I wore the belt home and other than just taking it back off to adjust the waist size down one hole i have had it on all weekend so far and love it. I have put on a little weight since the last belt i tested out but it was really easy to alter the size once the belt was off. One interesting thing came out of the meeting with Joe this weekend (other than the belt) and that was that some purchasers had mentioned they had an issue trying to locate the front pieces onto the waistbelt when they had the belt in place as it would line up and even though they had bent the cock ring and then the cock tube sections a little they could not get them to fit together afterwards, it turns out that as we all know we are all different shapes but for some of us with a slight belly or paunch the belt when clicked into place ends up with the vee section pointing in at the bottom edge instead of how it should be sitting flat this then prevents the other sections from slipping into place also. It seems that Joe had a customer in the other day who tried it on and had that exact problem which luckily Joe saw first hand whilst trying to help him slip the belt on in the changing room and with a quick removal and Joes grasp he bent the front of the belt back into the shape it should be with his bare hands and the belt fitted the chap perfectly so much so he fitted all the pieces on and drove off happily wearing the whole lot. So just for anyone who has had this issue Joe now offers this advice, do not bend the individual sections but rather fix the blanking plates and tighten the locknut on the waistbelt so it is in the fitted position and then turn it over with the front section on the floor (carpeted so as not to scratch the belt) with the Vee shape nearest your feet and just place a foot on the front section and then grab the rear section of the belt and push it away from you whilst keeping pressure on the bottom with your shoe. Pick up the belt and try it around the waist it should sit flat at the front if not do the same thing again and push it further forward a little at a time. Will post some pictures later of the belt but for now all i can say is Thanks to everyone at BehindBarz the belt is fantastic and i am having one made up with a couple of little personal touches by Joe which i will post a picture of when its made as it has some lovely words etched onto the waistbelt and a modified front outer cage as well. If anyone is thinking of popping out to see the workshop first hand i can highly recommend it and you will see just how good they really are.

 

Thanks! Great explanation. Good luck!

 

These look nice. Are they more noticeable then a cage device? I was doing some measurements were the website tells you too and if I don't go tight I'm aprox 36 inches. If I go tight I'm about 34 inches. What measurement should I go with? I like how this device has some give incase you loose or gain a little weight.

 

Thank you for the response. Honestly I am not sure trouser size I have been loosing to much weight and nothing fits me anymore. I am around 33 inches at the belly button so I think 35 inch belt would be correct. See were my weight and waistline is after the holidays my wife is interested in this belt. Thanks again for the help!

 

Your wife will be your KH?

 

yes, she loves having control. We are on again of again with chastity. She was having some health problems so we stopped. I think we will be starting again soon.

 

hope your wifes health issues improve alien and that you get to enjoy your lifestyle again soon, the sizing issue is not a huge thing i usually wear size 34" trousers etc and the last waistband joe made for me was a 36" which i adjusted slightly to fit. The beauty with this belt is that adjustment up and down is easily made so weight gains and losses are not a deal breaker for wearing the belt. Mostly it is all a matter of personal preference in how tight or loose the wearer chooses to wear their own belt for some they wear them reasonably loose around their waist which you can usually see when they lay on their backs and breathe in deeply others like them tighter and it shows when they lie in the same position in that there is very little gap between body and belt. For me i need to feel i cannot slip the belt down or gain access underneath by laying down or twisting and so i tend to have the belt tighter others have it looser but are not tempted to fiddle with their belts and respect the fact they have given their word to wear it and not attempt to get access its all down to the individual. All i would say is that whatever size you do end up with treat the belt gently at first until you have shaped it entirely to your liking and bodyshape in my case i had never before bent the back section inwards slightly to the curve of my lower back however this time i have done just a little at a time over my knee and the fit is so much more comfortable with the end result of actually making the belt fit closer all round my waist meaning the size actually ended up being slightly smaller than i had been having it before doing so. Main point is to get this part spot on first before rushing on trying to get all the other bits fitted, once the belt feels like part of you the rest of the extra sections are just plain sailing in comparison and you will enjoy the sensation of being truly locked immensely.

 

Gosh Stroppy that belt doesn't look very comfortable at all. What on earth does your wife think of it?

 

Just goes to show you how wrong you can be then MS as many satisfied wearers of these belts can testify me included they are actually extremely comfortable and pleasing on the eye to both the wearer and keyholder, maybe its time for a trip to specsavers?

 

Hear all!
I have rewinded the thread to the point where Mascara^Snake gives her opinion and Slave stroppy and Behind Barz reply. Everything after that was not worthy.....

I have also for the moment closed the thread - and will reopen it tomorrow again, so that it can return to is true purpose once again. Right now all needs to cool off....

One word about the fact that someone - even Amanda brings forward critic or doubt about a device etc..
That is fair to do so ( but not over and over again Amanda- so back off will You - point taken, ok?) .
This place is not just for cheerful support but also for someone to come forward with concern etc. Please all adjust to that - thanks!
The reply given by Behind Barz to Amandas outburst was just the right way of handling her concern.
Listen and learn

Have a great evening all of You

 

So I hope I'm not the only one who feels this, but I am a bit confused. Are these belts you can wear all day, use the bathroom in etc? I am a bit confused by the design since they are radically different from what I'm use to seeing. I did look at the photos, but cant tell if these just "trap" the penis or if it locks it into a position where you can be comfortable, sit to pee, etc...

Maybe someone can do a "dumb" explanation for me? These belts seem to get positive reviews.

 

The quality looks excellent and truly a work of art. I wish there was a way to get the security with the feminine front without the belt. Especially if it was secured by a PA or reverse PA.

 

I am not quite sure i understand what your confusion is regarding these belts? they can for certain be worn for long periods of time as has been told by many owners including myself. They are able to be worn in several different ways as they are sectional in style and can be swapped around or interchanged to enable the wearer to find a method that works for them at different times or to suit the mood of the moment. you would ideally need to sit to use the toilet which is the same as most chastity belts, it incorporates a cock ring a cock tube and an outer cage as it is sectional it means that the outer cage does not have to be worn if not required. The belt can be worn with the ring and tube only fitted and this will be similar in principle to a ball trap device but with the added benefit of the device being locked closely around the waist holding the device securely into the abdomen preventing the discomfort sometimes found in devices that are pushed away during attempted erections tugging on the testicles. There is also an optional attachment that means the cock tube can be worn without a cock ring as well now if wanted, as the belt is sectional there are many add on bits that can be used with the belt to further enhance its uses. The belt is adjustable to allow for increases or decreases in size with ease so all in all this belt is a very solid and quality piece of Handmade artwork designed for the serious chastity enthusiast.

 

I can see what you mean in your wishes but i cannot see how you would be able to have a piece of flat fronted stainless steel suspended or hanging in front supported only by a piercing pushing the weight back upwards? without the assistance of some form of belt. If you have a suggestion i am sure Joe would be happy to hear it. The cock tube can and sometimes is fitted with an attachment for piercings for some customers who ask for them.

 

I would do something like a modified Lori 12a that has a feminine shield that attaches on top of it by security screws. Or just a tube with a fem shield that will attach, even if it hung oddly without panties.

 

Well your explanation helped a bit!

None of their photos show men wearing the belts I liked. Most were wearing ones that "caged" their penis, so I dont see how those would allow the wearer to use the bathroom. I do see that the more "traditional" ones have a ring system for the penis, which is unique. Ive never seen it before, so it confused me a bit. Im still curious how it looks once someone is in it. Ive also never seen a belt with no rear support!
