National Star Collage approached Magloc to develop a new buckle for students that were unable to use their existing buckles due to their disabilities.
Over the past three years Magloc developed a new single handed buckle based on our patented connection process, together with a static presenter arm it allows students to connect and release the buckle without assistance, thus the Soloc single handed buckle was born the first buckle of its kind in the world designed and developed for the disabled.
Single hand connection and release
Presenter arm helps to hold the stud in position for connection
Presenter arm has a flexible section to allow it to bend around the body
Presenter arm retracts to the side of the chair on release to allow entry and exist
The buckle can be fitted for both right and left handed use
An additional Pull Tab release is optional for people with very limited dexterity
There is also a unique Houdini locking feature developed for safety critical application
Simply put by one student “its just Freedom! not having to ask people for assistance anymore”
Not only will Soloc improve the lives of so many people but it will reduce the need for care assistance too, it’s estimated that people need to transfer on average around 16 times a day so the use of the new buckle will reduce the need for assistance and promote savings in resources for the NHS, collages and local community carers as well as family and friends.
In the UK alone its estimated around 75,000 people could benefit directly for the use of the Soloc buckle.
According to the wheelchair foundation
In the 34 developed countries it is estimated that 1% or 10,000,000 people require a wheelchair
In the 156 developing countries it is estimated that at least 2% or 121,800,000 people require a wheelchair
(Data as of March 2016)
The Soloc buckle has magnets in both parts to aid alignment which helps the units magically connect together
The Soloc Buckle helps promote independence as you can connect the buckle unaided with one hand
In trials the Soloc Buckle improved confidence and mobility for those with limited dexterity to help them become more independent as well as improving their safety .

I'm Tony Garlick, the inventor of Soloc. I have been working on these innovative products since 2015. These are specifically designed to help people feel safe and to give them independence when using lap belts. The traditional standard buckles are difficult to use when the users have limited dexterity and strength with their hands and fingers therefore with the new SOLOC buckles they automatically align and attach using my Patented Technology.
