Child proofing cupboards

[smeraldina]

Does anyone have any ideas about a way of doing this that doesn't involve drilling screws into melamine cupboards? Just wondering if there's a product that will help keep our 11 month old out of the cupboards that is super easy to use -- neither of us is ANY good with DIY - I've bought these hooks and catches but it's beyond me to fit them.

many thanks!

A friend of mine got some magnetic ones, that were easy to fit 1 screw on each side ie the inside of the door and then the cupboard side ( if this maks sense) ans then it has a seperate handle type thing tha you hold over the outsied of the door to open it.

We use these and they work really well. You stick them down - fingers crossed they'll eventually come off without causing too much damage, but I haven't tried yet!

These are very good if you have two handles that meet;

My 9mo DS pulled the stick down locks off straight away so I wouldn't rely on them (certainly not on the bleach cupboard).

Yep we use these which are similar on cupboard with two handles together, they're very good.

DS is 20 months and hasn't pulled off the sticky one yet. The sticky one for keeping a toilet locked is useless though, as condensation destroys the glue pretty quickly.

Ha, ha, my DS broke two of those Rhian which is why I switched to the ones I linked. I think he must be more destructive than average!

Don't bother! Cleaning materials go in a wall cupboard; anything else can be put back! Nothing so annoying as having to undo those child locks and breaking sever fingers in the process

But a good blob of blu tack will slow them down ...
