Security Screw

1. A security screw is used to lock the cage and the back ring together, instead of using a normal built in lock or a padlock.

2. A security works just like a normal screw. You simply screw it in.

3. A security screw is made with a unique screw head. You will only get the perfect grip on the unique screw with the correct bit. Attempting to loosen the screw with a bit that almost matchres, can maybe result in that you are stripping the screw head and then you are in real trouble.

Lori's chastity devices made in the USA. They use a security screw that is specially designed " ONLY " for Lori's chastity devices . On their devices all security screws sits in a recessed screw hole, so you can't even use a pliar to try to loosen the screw, becauset that will not work at all.

A securtiy screw is much safer then a padlock. A lock can be picked open. You can't pick a security screw.

 

I find the security screw more comfortable, too. And it makes my cage more security since there's no movement between the ring and cage.

 

The padlock always bugged me, it constantly made noise when moving against the cage. The security screw is much better, Mature Metal offers this option as well.

 

There are many kinds of security screws so make sure it’s not a standard type you can easily order online. I think Miss Lori uses a unique screw key. If you want even more secure, have them add a hole so you can use a numbered seal as well. Mine is secured by a screw that holds a PA prong and another that secures a glans ring. Special order from Miss Lori.

 

McMaster- Carr has many types of security screws. They can only be removed with the proper tool.

I'm not a fan of the security screws. They do however make the device look cleaner with at least an ounce less weight. This would depend on the lock you choose. I had issues with mine loosening up during normal wear. It also twists the cage slightly toward the head of the screw when its torqued down tight. This gives you less clearance on one side than the other. Pendant keys are pretty jewelry but not really effective for torquing or loosening a tight screw. My wife prefers to hear the click of the lock when it snaps shut. She also loves wearing the shiny little key around her neck. Abus locks work the best and the keys are tiny.

 

I just saw that MCN has new unique security screws.

The old screws it was possible to source a tamper proof Allen key.

 

If you want to make it very secure you can use this!
Mine is locked with this product and I have tried to remove it but to no avail!

I've had the same issue happen with the ring to cage screw, so I swapped out that for a padlock.

I wish I could find a padlock that would fit the Prince Albert lock, but I'm not sure those exist (you need a VERY specific set of measurements from the shackle which I don't think you can find retail and would be absurdly expensive to have someone make you a bespoke one) and even if they did, it is possible that the slight give that would allow would cause issues.

 

If it's coming loose you must not be torquing it enough.

Only time I had it happen is when I didn't put enough torque on the screw. That little pendant key doesn't work. Gotta use the short end of the Allen key.

Or marks new keys have an actual driver but you can use a driver bit adapter to get it good and tight. Or for our German friends "gutentite". Lol.

 

I know it's slightly off topic but I recently spotted a Bar that went through a Cherry keeper device and a padlock on the end.

I just can't seem to find info on that mod.

 

The new security screws that I am using are from the same company that makes them for Lori. I don't know whether the screws she uses has this feature, but I paid extra to have a built-in lockwasher added to my screws. This feature allows the screw to seat itself tightly without you having to use a lot of force to tighten it. Here's an image showing the lockwasher on the bottom side of the screw head...

 

Exactly!...A security screw firmly lock the two pieces together, essentially turning the device into one solid piece, whereas with a padlock there will always be some amount of movement between the cage and base-ring when the two pieces are connected.

The movement is inherent in the padlock design because the hole in the lock 'sleeve' on the cage and the hole in the lock 'post' on the base-ring need to be wider than the shackle of the padlock.

 

The new security screws are definitely a cut above the old ones. So far they have been great. Really like the proprietary key bit.

 

I was having a problem with my security screw eventually working loose - not so it would fall out but enough I could start to move it with my fingertips - which was a dangerous temptation!

Mark at MCN had great advice as usual and suggested applying slightly more torque. I did and it seems to have solved the problem. Several weeks now into my current lock-up, including vibrator play on the cage, and it hasn't budged at all. Perfect!

 

I have used purple locktite and it works great at keeping the screw in place but still allowing it to come off when I need it to.

I've heard of some folk using blue locktite, but that's a bit too secure for comfort.

Red is obviously right out. That's permanent.

 

and compatible with Mature Metal threading. I’m using on on my Jailbird now.
