The 3 Security Levels of ASP Handcuff Locks - Yellow Green Blue

This is a video showing you the 3 colours of the ASP lock sets for their handcuffs. They are interchangeable so you can replace damaged or "out of service life" ones or upgrade the security of your existing handcuffs. It's a really nice design. Yellow This is the most basic, it has 1 pawl bar, similar to Smith & Wesson or Peerless. It has a basic level of security and generally the absolutely easiest to pick and shim. Green This is marketed as a European lock, but in my opinion this should BE the global baseline standard. It has 3 thinner pawl bars instead of one large one. This makes picking and shimming more difficult unless you have knowledge and makeshift tools that will engage all 3 levers (Pawls) at the same time. British police handcuffs have 3 pawl bars. Blue This is the HIGH SECURITY model and requires a special key. The key needed to open these has a split in it, which allows a blocking plate inside to pass through the gap in the key. If you insert a normal handcuff key it will NOT turn at all. You can modify a normal handcuff key using a file to add a slot but most people would not know about this and it makes it more secure. Also it makes picking them VERY hard. However these handcuffs can be easily shimmed if they are not double locked. A side note about all the ASP lock sets for their handcuffs. The double lock is easy to disengage since it is right next to the open keyway. It is trivial to disengage. Plus, all ASP handcuffs can be shimmed exceptionally easily and flawlessly. So even though the Blue lock is high security, someone could use a paper clip to deactivate the double lock and then use their very normal and standard shim to open the handcuffs in an easier way than most other models. Over all I do love ASP handcuffs and while they have some security shortcomings, handcuffs are TEMPORARY RESTRAINTS. People should not be left unattended while handcuffed both for safety reasons and security reasons. These lock sets can be bought in the US from the handcuff warehouse or in Europe from Nordhandel.
