i understand the point and of course there should be a good emergency system. i just think the best system is of no use if you have problems with the belt.

    My key is kept in a key lock box used to hold a key realtors use on for sale homes.
    There’s a 4 digit code used to open it.
    It just sits on our head board.

    She grabs a key to take with her when we go on long trips.

    Once we went somewhere and she forgot the key. We were going to make love (she was in the mood) and learned she left the key here.
    She got satisfied and slept well. I just slept. Lol

        bdsamm As I have heard of several instances where forced opening was necessary, I think it would be great if you share your knowledge in detail how to break some common belts open. Can you illustrate how a good "Vice grips" look, where on the guard they have to be used, where and with what tool a "lock shackle" can be cut? We don't want skin to be hurt with the wrong tools or procedures. Thank You!

            Damien in an emergency I kinda assume the lock could be broken like it's small and close - cutting would be a pain but it just doesn't look that strong

              Damien

              i suspect many things from my father's toolbox could break the belt or the lock, in case of emergency you can always call the emergency number

                  Angelina A friend who knows about my belt said he surely could cut the band without hurting me if he can slip a thick piece of leather under it.
                  So guess anything’s possible

                      Sasha said he surely could cut the band without hurting me if he can slip a thick piece of leather under it.

                      Leather not nearly safe enough imo.

                          Jonas A sufficiently large piece of leather should protect the skin from heat and sparks during some very careful angle grinder work, but yeah, slips could still lead to injury. Or with jaws of life, it might provide some padding from the heavy tools.

                            Jonas Probably not ideal, but the risk vs wearing it against my will might be worth it.

                                Sasha vs wearing it against my will

                                Do you have such a risk?

                                    Laura Not at all. Just a thought on the topic that came to mind

                                      Sasha Probably not ideal, but the risk vs wearing it against my will might be worth it.

                                      Far too great a health risk I think. Belt removal would need to be properly thought out and carried out. Will would have to wait in such a situation.

                                        Sasha

                                        I would just try to break through the lock, I think that is the safer way.

                                          Damien I did not intend to say I kew a way to open any belt but all that I have seen in person could be removed easily with vise grips on the shackle protector or bolt cutters on the lock shackle. The radial lock on the tolly boy belts would be more difficult but still using tools to twist the lock would likely be successful. It is just a pin.
                                          Of course in all cases the belt is severely damaged makig escape evident and requiring major repair or replacement.

                                            It's useful advice in case if I need to do it.

                                                There are not many emergencies I can imagine where it is necessary to remove the belt.
                                                If they must, put you in an MRI scanner or insert a catheter into you in the ICU.

                                                You must always have a key with you, but it must be impossible for you to use it.
                                                Otherwise, the whole idea of a locked belt is pointless.

                                                I have my emergency key fixed with a cable tie to this metal triangle on my back.
                                                With a mirror and scissors, I can't get it, so it's a safe place for "horny" moments.

                                                In my opinion, the safest way to open a cb without a suitable key is to pick the lock. Appropriate tools are available on Amazon and instruction videos elsewhere. 😉
                                                A good cb is made of stainless steel. This means that you have to use massive force to destroy it. This is simply too dangerous for the wearer. Also to destroy the lock requires some force. At least if the bracket is protected accordingly.
                                                Except magnetic locks, I know of none for a cb that can not be picked.
