Can Security Officers Carry Handcuffs? Training with THE TMS Security

When it comes to ensuring safety and security, the role of a security officer is crucial. One question that often arises is whether security officers are allowed to carry handcuffs. The answer is yes—security officers can carry and use handcuffs, but only under specific circumstances and when they are properly trained to do so.

At THE TMS Security, our officers are trained and certified through Get Licensed, a reputable training provider in the security industry. This ensures that our team not only meets legal requirements but also handles any situation professionally and responsibly.

Why Can Security Officers Carry Handcuffs?

Security officers often need to detain individuals who pose a threat to safety or are involved in criminal activities. While security officers do not have the same legal authority as police officers, they are allowed to make a citizen’s arrest under specific conditions. In such cases, having handcuffs allows them to detain suspects safely until law enforcement arrives. However, this must be done within the confines of the law, ensuring that no excessive force is used.

Training and Certification

Our officers undergo rigorous training with Get Licensed, covering areas such as conflict management, legal implications of detainment, and proper handcuffing techniques.
