Seat Belts Modern and Period

All our static and inertia seat belts are available in two distinct styles: Modern and Period. A range of options is available for each style, as outlined below.


Modern Style Seat Belts

Modern seat belts are typically supplied with black components, including modern black plastic buckles with red or orange release buttons. Black webbing is supplied as standard, with a choice of over 60 alternative webbing colours available—most at no additional cost (some exceptions may apply; please ask). Chrome components, such as pillar loops and mounting bolts, can also be specified.

Period Style Seat belts

All period style seat belts feature chrome aircraft-style buckles and a choice of webbing colours. Please note that, under UK regulations, period-style buckles are not suitable for vehicles manufactured after December 1972 and are not recommended for children under 11–12 years of age.

Seat Belts Rewebbing and Refurbishment

Seat belts are a critical safety component and must always be maintained to the highest standard. Regular inspection and prompt repair or replacement at the first sign of wear or malfunction is essential to ensure occupant safety.



We provide a comprehensive seat belt rewebbing, repair, and refurbishment service, carried out in full compliance with all relevant UK and EU safety regulations. All work is assessed on a safety-first basis, as certain components are classified as single-use items and cannot be reused.

All refurbished seat belts are suitable for MOT inspection and are widely accepted by insurance providers, having been restored or rebuilt in accordance with the appropriate standards.




Classic & Period Seat Belts

For classic and period vehicles, we aim to retain and refurbish original components wherever it is safe to do so, preserving authenticity and originality. Where components are worn, damaged, or unsuitable for reuse, we can replace them with newly manufactured or carefully sourced parts, ensuring both safety and period-correct appearance.


Modern Seat Belts

We refurbish and reweb most modern seat belts, using new webbing and components where required, while ensuring full compliance with current safety standards and manufacturer requirements.





Pretensioner Retractor Repair

We now offer a specialist service to repair modern pretensioner retractors, allowing original seat belt assemblies to be retained while restoring correct operation and safety performance.


Components and Webbing Colours

To suit every vehicle and personal preference, we offer a wide range of seat belt components, webbing colours, and custom options, covering both classic and modern applications.



Seat Belt Components

We stock an extensive range of seat belt components, including buckles and clasps finished in chrome, stainless steel, or zinc plating. Where original components are no longer available, we have them remanufactured and safety tested to ensure full compliance with the relevant standards.

These include specialist items such as Y- and D-shaped anchor plates, commonly found in marques including Aston Martin, Jaguar, and Austin-Healey.


Seat Belt Webbing Colours

We carry over 60 colours and textures of seat belt webbing, ranging from modern finishes to authentic period styles from the 1950s and 1960s. While exact OE colour matches are not always possible, we will always aim to achieve the closest match.

A bespoke webbing service is also available, allowing colours to be matched to sample, along with options for custom-printed logos or text (minimum runs and additional costs apply).



A variety of stitching patterns is available; examples can be seen below. Please note that heavier webbings, including Pebble Weave, are suitable for static seat belts and full harnesses only.

Fitting Service

Established in September 1962, Quickfit Safety Belt Services has over 60 years’ experience fitting seat belts and restraint systems to vehicles of every era. We work closely with leading restorers and marque specialists, and many vehicles we have equipped have gone on to be presented at concours events worldwide—a reflection of our standards, discretion, and attention to detail.

Seat belts are life-saving components and must be installed correctly to perform as intended. This is particularly critical in classic vehicles, where original factory mounting points were often poorly positioned or limited to static belts. We regularly design and install new mounting points to accommodate modern inertia systems, ensuring correct geometry, comfort, and safety without compromising originality.

We understand precisely how seat belts function, the importance of correct mounting positions and webbing angles, and the risks associated with poor installation. Every installation is carried out with safety as the priority, informed by decades of hands-on experience.

We offer competitive labour rates and, for most vehicles, a 2–3 hour turnaround for fitting a pair of seat belts. More complex vehicles—including aluminium-bodied, fibreglass, or vintage wooden-framed cars—may require additional time.

In addition to fitting and refurbishment, we now offer a specialist repair service for modern pretensioner retractors, allowing original seat belt assemblies to be retained while restoring full safety performance.


Seat Belt Aesthetics
We place equal importance on aesthetics and functionality. Our work is designed to integrate seamlessly with a vehicle’s interior, ensuring seat belts appear as though they were part of the original design wherever possible—an approach valued by restorers, collectors, and concours judges alike.


Modern technology allows rear inertia reels to be discreetly hidden within the boot area rather than mounted on the parcel shelf, preserving interior originality. Certain vehicles, such as Aston Martin DB4, DB5, and DB6 models, remain exceptions due to fuel tank placement and are assessed individually.

Automatic

What is Fireflex?

FIREFLEX is a fully automatic self seeking fire extinguisher system, designed for specific designated applications rather than as a flood system, though it can be used for this purpose also.

What are the advantages of Fireflex?

FIREFLEX is simple to fit; it has a wide range of applications and can be adapted to suit most requirements. It is a self-activating system that does not rely on electronics, moving parts or external monitors. It is versatile allowing for different areas to be covered by the same unit.

FIREFLEX uses unique trace tubing that can both detect the fire and deliver the extinguishing media to the heart of the fire. The trace tube is directly pressurised from the cylinder and is traced around the area of risk to be protected.

Ideal applications are enclosed areas such as engines, control cabinets and machines, such as spark erosion, and lathe and anywhere the risk is in a confined or enclosed space.

FIREFLEX is available in sizes ranging from 0.75kg up to 9.0kg giving total flood protection for volumes up to approximately 11 cubic metres. Different extinguishing media are available to suit various applications where contamination or chemical reaction may be critical.



2kg ABC Powder – Code FEX002

Not recommended for PCV (passenger carrying vehicles), but can be used on service/maintenance vehicles and many other applications including electrical systems.
