A method of making a device with multi-stage engagement, the method comprising: releasably connecting a first component 22 to a second component 24 with a first canted coil spring 26, the connection being releasable with a first force exerted on at least one of the first component or the second component; releasably connecting the second component to a third component 28 with a second canted coil spring 30, the connection being releasable with a second force exerted on at least one of the second component or the third component; applying a progressively increasing force to the first component, the third component, or both the first and third components to disconnect the first connection before the second connection; and wherein the second force is less than the first force.
