In 1975 the squadron were made into a regiment, titled the Life Guard Dragoons with Stockholm Defence District (Livgardets dragoner med Stockholms försvarsområde K 1/Fo 44), redesignated the Life Guard Dragoons in 1984.

The regiment had ceremonial mounted cavalry duties, as well as training recruits and providing part of the garrison in Stockholm.

[2] In connection with OLLI reform, which was carried out within the Swedish defence during 1973–1975, the Life Guards Squadron was amalgamated with Stockholm Defence District (Fo 44) that afterwards adopted the name Life Guard Dragoons (Livgardets dragoner).

Among other things, a Swedish Navy staff company was transferred to the Life Guard Dragoons.

On 1 January 1977, the regiment was transferred responsibility for the Medical Training School (Medicinalfackskolan, MedfackS).

The Defence Committee shared the Supreme Commander's proposals, as there was a surplus of training places in the cavalry, and that it should seek to take advantage of the capacity of the units that were close to each other and thereby be able to disband or reorganize facilities for other purposes that then was occupied by the cavalry.

[6] After the Defence Act of 1992, the cavalry battalion was separated from the Svea Life Guards on 30 June 1994.

On 1 July 1994 it formed a cadre organized unit of the Middle Military District (Milo M).

In connection with the OLLI reform on 1 July 1975, the Stockholm Defence District was given joint staff with the Life Guard Dragoons (K 1).

From 1 October 1949, the company came to belong to the Life Guards Squadron, however, the two units did not have a uniform command.

In 1955, the Swedish government considered that the company was in great need of relocating to Lidingövägen, in order to be amalgamated with the Life Guards Squadron under a unified command, which in administrative terms would be connected to staff of the IV Military District.

[2] As parts of the central command of the Swedish Armed Forces were relocated from Stockholm, the need for assistance conscripts was reduced.

The barracks were built in 1897 after the building program of the Defence Act of 1892, and designed by Erik Josephson.
