we have these. They are a bit of a PITA to install, you need an electric drill. But really worth it as you can open them with one hand, they lock automatically as you close the cupboard / drawer, and are invisible. If you do remove them although they leave little holes behind, you cannot see them as they are inside the cupboard.

this adhesive thing is easier to install, but some of ours have come off, and they are harder for adults to open and close. Useful though if you cannot drill, like on the fridge. They do damage the furniture in a visible way, and re ugly in their own right IMO. though.

Magnetic locks for cupboards. The best locks of any we tried - and we tried many!

For drawers, the little hooks that you push down are OK. They do the job very well, but you sometimes pinch your fingers and cannot undo them one-handed.
