How to Put On a Chastity Cage – A Step-by-Step Guide

So, you’ve decided to wear a chastity cage. Whether this is your first time or you’re refining your technique, putting on a chastity cage properly is essential for comfort, security, and long-term wear. Follow this step-by-step guide to ensure a smooth and successful experience.


1. Prepare Your Body and Mind

Before locking yourself in, take some time to prepare physically and mentally.

Physical Preparation:

Shave or trim your pubic hair – This prevents pinching and makes cleaning easier.

Wash thoroughly – Clean your genitals, especially under the foreskin, as hygiene becomes more challenging once the cage is on.

Mental Preparation:

  • Set clear goals – Are you self-locking, or is a partner involved? Decide on rules:

How long will you wear it? (A few hours, days, or long-term?)

Are breaks allowed?

What’s the purpose? (Denial, tease & denial, keyholder control?)

  • Consider a chastity contract – If a partner is your keyholder, discuss expectations beforehand.

2. Putting On the Ring

The base ring is the foundation of your chastity cage. Follow these steps to fit it comfortably:

Step-by-Step:

  1. Hold the ring close to your body – Position it where it will sit (behind the penis and testicles).
  2. Insert one testicle at a time – Gently pull the scrotum to guide each testicle through the ring.
  3. Thread the flaccid penis through – Ensure you’re completely soft. Bend the penis downward and guide it through the ring.
  4. Adjust for comfort – The ring should sit snugly against your body without pinching.

💡 Pro Tip: If you feel aroused, pause and relax before continuing—trying to force it can cause discomfort.


3. Attaching the Cage

With the ring in place, it’s time to secure the cage.

Step-by-Step:

  1. Apply lube – A small amount on the head of your penis helps it slide into the cage smoothly.
  2. Align the cage with the ring – Match the locking mechanism (pins, tube, or hinge) with the ring.
  3. Slide the cage onto your penis – Gently push it forward, guiding your penis inside.
  4. If it gets stuck, use a finger (or a gap in the cage bars) to adjust.
  5. Secure the lock mechanism – Ensure everything aligns before locking.

 Warning: Be careful not to pinch your skin when closing the cage!


4. Locking It & Handling the Keys

This is the moment of commitment—once locked, the cage stays on until your predetermined release time.

Locking Options:

  • Padlock (external) – Classic but may jingle.
  • Internal lock (integrated tube) – More discreet and secure.

Final Steps:

  1. Insert the lock – Gently turn the key to secure it.
  2. Hand over the keys (if applicable) – Give them to your keyholder or store them safely (e.g., a lockbox).
  3. Adjust mentally – Remind yourself of your goals and embrace the sensation of being locked.

Aftercare & Tips for First-Time Wearers

  1. Start slow – Wear the cage for short periods before attempting long-term use.
  2. Check for irritation – Remove immediately if you experience pain, numbness, or discoloration.
  3. Clean regularly – Use a cotton swab or showerhead to clean inside the cage.
  4. Listen to your body – If something feels wrong, take a break and reassess.

Final Thoughts

Putting on a chastity cage correctly ensures comfort, security, and enjoyment. Whether you’re exploring solo play or surrendering control to a keyholder, following these steps will help you get the most out of your chastity experience.
