Under Mattress Restraint Setup: Step-by-Step Guide

Quick Answer

To set up an under mattress restraint system, slide the straps between the mattress and box spring, position the clips at each corner, and adjust the webbing for a snug fit before securing wrists or ankles.

Setup Steps

1. Prepare the mattress: Remove all bedding and lift the mattress slightly to expose the gap between the mattress and the box spring or bed frame. Check that the mattress is not too heavy to lift safely; ask for help if needed.
2. Position the straps: Slide the webbing straps under the mattress, spacing them evenly to align with the corners where the clips will be placed. Ensure the straps are not twisted; twisted straps can cause uneven tension.
3. Adjust the length: Pull the straps to the desired length so that the clips reach the corners of the mattress without excess slack. The straps should be snug but not overly tight, allowing for comfortable movement.
4. Secure the clips: Attach the clips to the straps or cuffs, ensuring they click firmly into place. Double-check each clip to confirm it is locked before use.
5. Test the setup: Have the restrained person lie down and test the range of motion. Adjust the straps if any position feels uncomfortable or restricts circulation. Always keep quick-release access available and never leave a restrained person unattended.
