The Strict Over the Door Restraints turn any solid door into bondage furniture in about a minute. Padded PU leather cuffs hang from straps anchored by dowels that sit on the far side of a closed door, so your partner can be held in place standing up, facing the door or with their back to it. These door restraints suit couples who want restraint play without fixing anything to the walls or the bed.
Open the door, drape the straps over the top edge so the dowels hang on the far side, and close it again. The dowels are 0.75 inches thick, wide enough that they can't slip back through the gap once the door is shut. The cuffs then hang on your side at whatever height the straps allow. There's nothing to screw in, no hooks to fit and no marks left on the frame, so the set comes down in seconds and the door goes back to being a door.
Each padded cuff is 2.75 inches wide, which spreads the pressure across the wrist rather than letting a thin strap dig in. They adjust from 5 to 9.5 inches around, a range that fits most wrists. Buckle them snug enough that a hand can't slide out, but loose enough to fit a finger underneath. The buckles are lockable if you add small padlocks of your own; locks don't come in the box.
The obvious one is the restrained partner facing the door with arms raised, which leaves their back, buttocks and thighs open for spanking, teasing or standing sex from behind. Turned around, with their back against the door, they're on display for kissing, oral or toys. Keep arms below shoulder height for longer scenes, since raised arms tire quickly, and add a blindfold if you want to take sight away too.
Strict lists these as heavy-duty restraints, but they are not designed for suspension. The person in the cuffs should always stand with their full weight on their feet; never let them hang or lean their weight into the straps. Use a solid interior door that closes firmly, and lock it or make sure nobody can open it from the other side, which would drop the dowels. Agree on a safe word, plus a hand signal in case speech is limited. Check hands every few minutes for tingling, coldness or colour change, and keep scissors or the lock keys within reach.
The cuffs and straps are PU leather, a synthetic that suits people who avoid animal leather, with acrylic dowels and metal hardware. Wipe them with a damp cloth and mild soap after use, then let them air-dry away from heat. Store them flat or loosely coiled so the straps don't crease. Keep the set together in a drawer or bag so the dowels, which are easy to misplace, stay with the cuffs.

Helpful answers about Strict Over the Door Restraints.
With the Strict Over the Door Restraints, you hang the straps over the top of an open door, leave the dowels on the far side and shut the door. The closed door traps the dowels, so the cuffs hang securely on your side. No screws or hooks are needed.
They shouldn't. The Strict straps simply rest over the top of the door and the dowels press against the back, so nothing is drilled or screwed in. Check that the door still closes fully with the straps in place; if it's a very tight fit, the strap may rub the paint.
No. Strict says the set is heavy-duty but not designed for suspension. Keep the restrained partner standing with their weight on their feet the whole time, and never let them hang or lean their body weight into the cuffs.
The Strict cuffs adjust from 5 to 9.5 inches around, which covers most adult wrists. Measure around your wrist with a soft tape if you're unsure. Fasten them so one finger slides underneath, and check hands often for tingling or coldness.
No. The buckles on the Strict cuffs are lockable, but you'll need to add your own small padlocks. If you use them, keep the keys on you rather than across the room, and have safety scissors nearby for emergencies.
Use a solid interior door that latches firmly. Hollow or loose doors may let the dowels slip, and doors that open towards you are easier to work with. Lock the door or tell housemates first, because opening it from the other side would release the straps.
No. The Strict cuffs and straps are PU leather, a synthetic material, with acrylic dowels and metal fittings. That makes them a choice for people who avoid animal products, and they wipe clean with a damp cloth.
