> 3 dayTwo of my children have used these for their little ones and they are a great answer to keeping little hands out of places they dont belong. I especially like the fact that I can switch them off when the little ones arent visiting and not be locked out of my cabinets all of the time.

> 3 dayThe installation of these locks needs to be fairly precise and it took me about 10 - 12 minutes per drawer/cupboard but it was totally worth it. I love that theres no risk of fingers getting pinched in slightly open doors and that Ill never have to uninstall them because of the disable switch. Just inspect the locks and your cupboards for a while before getting started to REALLY understand the way they install and operate. I noticed that the printing on the template for the latch was a little off so I managed to adjust where I was marking the cupboard to drill the holes. Also, dont try to mark the locations for holes with a pencil as they suggest. Use an awl, or if you dont have one, a big nail or screw should do the trick. Also, always check where youve marked by holding up the lock or latch to make sure the marks align with the holes. I have one place where I need to fill a hole and try again because I marked it badly.

> 3 dayThese are the absolute best! We took the ones we already had on our cabinets when we moved and bought new ones to make up the difference in our new house. The older ones have been used for 3 years now and work like new. We use them wherever there is a drawer or cabinet we dont want the kids to get in to including kitchen drawers and cabinets, bathroom drawers, and the media cabinet.

> 3 dayYou may be tempted to get the cheaper ones that have the simple tab that you push down on to open the cabinets. Know that my 12 month old son was able to figure that out pretty quickly thus rendering the cheaper child locks useless. And if my child could figure it out, yours will too. Invested in these instead and in addition to not being able to open the cabinets, he actually has learned to stop bother trying the cabinets anymore. The other nice feature is, you can disengage these so that you dont have to unlock it every time when you need to open cabinets. Then when the kiddo is around, re-engage the lock.

> 3 dayI have some of these that have been in service for 15+ years with good reliability and no failures yet. Follow the instructions and they are easy to install. Not as easy as the Stick-on version but much more secure.

> 3 daya little tricky to install and you have to drill the cabinets but they work great!!!!! I have full overlay cherry cabinets, the magnet works great through the door and they latch every time. I have self closing hinges and these do not provide any resistance when closing so they latch every time. I ordered a different kind accidentally and they would not always latch, or more accurately hardly ever latch........

> 3 dayWorked great for some of those weird cabinets in the corner and drawers. Only down side was my drawer design didnt allow enough space for installation on the top drawers. Product works well, installing is pretty easy once you figure it out. Instructions were clear and the template for installation was a huge plus.

> 3 dayEveryone loves this product. The locking system is completely invisible from the outside and is strong enough to stop a 2 year old toddler. I love that here is a locked/unlocked switch present if you are going to access the cabinet multiple time. Installation is slight nuance, since it was difficult to figure out the sticker guides that was included in the package, but the screws holes are slightly adjustable to make for a perfect fit.

24-04-2025After reading reviews about many types of cabinet childproofing products, we decided to buy these. Theyre a bit more costly, but much more effective in keeping baby out of the cabinets than the cheaper ones. Our baby loves to open the kitchen cabinets and has started to pull out pans and glass dishes recently. I cant reorganize the cabinets to allow him some exploration and play space in the kitchen, so instead of constantly saying no, no, no I decided to make it a moot point by removing the temptation of opening and closing the cabinet doors. The morning after we installed these, he crawled over, pulled himself up, and tried to pull on the knob to open the door. He attempted a few times, but quickly got bored and crawled away. Effective! Installation was a little frustrating for the first one, but once we figured it out, the others were quick to install (maybe 4 minutes each, but the first one took us about 20 mins). Weve ordered more, to put on the rest of our kitchen cabinets and on the bathroom ones, too. Were pleased with this product, and were glad we didnt waste the time installing the cheaper plastic latches that most kiddos eventually learn how to use. Minus 1 star because only 1 magnetic key is included...what happens if we lose it, or lock it inside the cabinet? It would take a few days to buy another one...

Greater than one weekInstallation pretty easy once you complete the first lock (maybe 30 minutes to install 3 locks, and I am not a very handy person) Our little one has not been able to open the cabinets since installing these locks. The best part is the disable feature which allows us to leave the locks unlocked if we are constantly going to be using a certain cabinet for that time. Also recommended for grandparents because they can leave the locks disabled when grandchild is not around, rather than constantly having to deal with child locks at all times. Very happy so far, going on 1 month and no regrets!
