Scenarios
Really, there’s no limit as to the type of scenarios you can use with a BDSM cage. The most basic would be a puppy scenario, where your sub is your pet and you are their master. You can also think about a jail cell scenario or some sort of helpless victim.

Safety Tips
Anyone who is in the BDSM community will be aware of how relationships work. But if you are just getting started, please be aware that safety is the number one priority. Having a submissive is not a free for all. Instead, any relationship needs to be entered into after plenty of discussions about what each person is comfortable with.
The use of a cage is not for beginners. You need a lot of trust, both in yourself and your partner, to be okay with being locked up. As a dominant, it is your job to constantly check in with your submissive. Look for verbal and non-verbal cues that they are okay. And if not, you need to stop immediately.
Always go into a cage scenario with a clear list of hard limits. Also, be sure that everyone knows what their safe words are before you proceed.
How to Pick the Best BDSM Cage
Take a look at these important features to know just what type of BDSM cage is right for you and your partner.
Dimensions
There are many possibilities when it comes to the size of a BDSM cage. You should consider the size of your sub and then their comfort level as well as the scenarios you want to act out.
The tallest cage is the Jail Cell Stand-Up Cage. Even though it is narrow, it is tall enough for your sub to stand up. In contrast, the Small Puppy Cage for Subs is much more compact. It has an opening at the top as most subs won’t have enough space for their head.
Materials
Stainless steel is the most common material used with a BDSM cage. Not only is it durable but it is easy to clean and it won’t rust. The steel can be powder coated, such as with the Steel Puppy Cage.
Lock
A cage wouldn’t be complete without a lock. Most cages will have more than one place for a lock, which will give your more versatility in your scenarios. Just watch out as most cages don’t actually come with locks. Although they don’t cost a lot, it is an extra step you’ll have to take in order to purchase a lock for your new cage.
Design
A cage may be a cage but it can look quite different. The standout product on our list when it comes to design is the Hammered Steel Coffee Table/ Cage. It is made with a flat top that actually looks like a coffee table. In fact, as long as your guests don’t look too closely at the sides, they might not even realize what they are resting their drinks on.
When it comes to design, you can look for different bar options, with some being thinner than others. You can also look at the overall color. Even though these cages are all made out of metal, some have a powder-coated finish for a more elevated look. Then, some are stainless steel while others have a black sheen to the bars.
BDSM cages can be full-standing options as well as models that can be disguised as coffee tables
Pads and bars
Some cages come with a padded mat that you can place at the bottom for more comfort. The Slave Puppy Cage and the Small Puppy Cage for Subs both include mats.
As for bars, these you can position to hold a sub in a particular position. They can be hard to use at first, so take your time and consistently check in with your partner so that they are comfortable enough.
Accessories
The beauty of BDSM cages is that you can add whatever accessories you want. These can include basics such as ankle and handcuffs. You can also add even more of a captured feeling by forcing your male sub to wear one of these best chastity cages.
While most BDSM cages don’t include any accessories with your purchase, there are some that do. The Slave Puppy Cage comes complete with ankle and wrist cuffs, along with different poles to angle your sub into different positions. Having accessories included can give you more ideas to start with and a more pleasurable experience.
Assembly
One very important note about BDSM cages is that they are very heavy. As they are made from metal, they will weigh around 100 pounds. Even the lightest option on our list, the Small Puppy Cage for Subs, still weighs 75 pounds.
Ideally, you want to find one place for your cage and keep it there. This can be hard, though, as most cages look like cages. If you know that you will need to store your cage elsewhere while not in use, look for a structure that is easy to assemble. For example, the Jail Cell Stand-Up Cage weighs 150 pounds but can be easily broken down into eight pieces, which makes it easier to store.
If you’re realizing you just don’t have enough space for a BDSM cage, there are alternatives. This list of the best BDSM collar and leash options mean you can have a more mobile way of keeping your sub contained.
