This article is about the steel cage that can be built in the throne room. For the one that can be built in the obliette, see Steel cage (oubliette).
Steel cage trapped player

A Steel cage is a trap that can be constructed in the throne room of a player-owned house. It requires level 68 Construction to build, along with 5 mahogany planks and 20 steel bars. When it is activated by a lever, it simply comes down on the floorspace, trapping people that happen to stand on the floor mat. Anyone can release the prisoner from the cage. Unlike the Trapdoor (POH), the person trapped can not escape.

Building a steel cage gives 1,100 construction experience.

Trivia

  • While the house owner is trapped in the cage, the butler will teleport a visitor into the cage with them. The visitors will remain trapped in the cage until they are released or leave.
  • It is possible to trap a servant in the cage by having him/her walk onto the floor decoration, quickly talking to it, then selecting the "stop following me" option. The servant should stay for a few seconds. During that time, it is possible to pull the lever and cage the servant in. Although this will take several tries to master, it can be quite amusing for other people to see in house parties.
