Prisoner Security Manikin
The Prisoner Security Training Manikins is manufactured by Ruth Lee Ltd and distributed exclusively in Ireland by Phoenix STS (Safety Equipment Ireland). As the authorised sole distributor for the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, we provide full sales support, product guidance, and after-sales service.
Ideally suited for prisons and correctional facilities to train for the evacuation of restrained or unconscious prisoners in an emergency situation, the Prisoner Security manikin is widely used by CERT (Correctional Emergency Response Teams) worldwide for cell extraction or riot control training.
With slimmer wrists to accommodate handcuffs to practise restraint techniques, the manikin also has a reinforced neck, to allow for the simulation of a suicide (through hanging), allowing teams to practice body recovery and evidence preservation techniques.
Constructed from the same flame retardant material used in Police ballistic/stab vests, offering 4x the strength and abrasion resistance of 16oz canvas or P.V.C. (conforms to OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, BS EN ISO 12947-2 & 14116: 2008). High-density polypropylene webbing (25mm rated to 207 Kg, 50mm rated to 440Kg).

The Prisoner Security Manikin is a highly durable, full-body training manikin designed to replicate the size, weight, and resistance of a human detainee for security and custody operations. Used by correctional officers, police, and military personnel, it enables realistic, hands-on training in the safe handling, restraint, and transport of prisoners. Built with articulated limbs and reinforced joints, the manikin allows for realistic scenarios such as control and compliance drills, handcuffing, cell extractions, vehicle transport simulations, and emergency response training. Its rugged construction withstands physical engagement, while its life-size proportions ensure accurate practice of team-based takedowns, body searches, and movement through confined or controlled spaces. Key Features: Realistic Size & Weight: Simulates an average adult detainee with human-like articulation. Highly Durable Build: Withstands repeated use in high-stress, hands-on scenarios. Jointed Limbs: Allows natural limb movement for realistic handling, restraint, and positioning. Safe for Physical Contact: Reinforced materials designed for aggressive handling without injury risk. Customizable Options: Available in different body types and clothing options to suit specific training environments. Who Uses Them?
