Magnet Child Proof Locks?

[Play Care]

Does anyone use something like this:http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000WX5JXS/...NHDZ0HTA&psc=1

Does it work? My child proof locks are due to be changed and I like the idea of something that can be turned off on weekends/vacations.

I use these. Have for YEARS!

LOVE THEM!!! I would NEVER even consider ANY other type of door lock.



It was bit spendy at first since the cost was about $15-20 per 2 lock set but like I said, I've used them for years and never had one break or not work.

I would absolutely recommend them to anyone doing child care. Parents are ALWAYS impressed at how well they really do work.

We had similar magnetic locks at a daycare that I worked at. They worked really well and lasted forever; we were constantly using them. I liked that you can make them so that they aren't child proof whenever you want. We had a diaper cupboard that we unlocked during changes.

Those are the locks we had at a center that I worked at. Vary rarely did one break and as you can imagine, in a center we used them all the time.

Is this the same as this?

Because they may have changed the name. If so I will buy it and see.

They appear to be a bit different but work in the same manner.

I don't know why the design is different other than people want choices...IDK.

I have also seen a brand called Rev-A-Lock too but they all seem similar and just as good as the others so I think it's the concept that is so great!

I'd buy which ever one is available to you.

I DO love that I can make the door operable when I want too.

I have the tot locks, too and love them!!! The ones above don't look quite the same, idk. We got ours at babies r us a few years back.

I'm a bit nervous as the Safety 1st ones seem to be complicated to install. Neither DH or I is handy...

But if I could get them and have them installed correctly it might solve my child proofing issues.

I've used Kid Co & Tot locks... LOVE THEM BOTH. The fact you don't have to drill to install Kid Co makes them my favorite

They really aren't complicated to install at all.

They give you a template because it's important that the locking mechanism is placed in the right area or it won't latch to the door frame, locking the door...kwim?

My DH is handy but I could have installed these myself.

The only thing my DH said to do is make sure you drill a pilot hole first...makes it really easy then.

I was in the market for new child proof locks, and read a post that regulations somewhere in CA would only accept these child proof locks. I figured that was a good enough reason for me to make the decision to get the Tot locks, ! .....maybe a starting trend?

I have these:

Installed myself, super easy and I LOVE that I can keep them on 'unlock' if I need to and switch them back to 'lock' when I'm done (weekends, cleaning out cabinets, etc).

Those look cool. I'll have to grab a set to try out.

Do they work well on drawers? The lock I currently have on my silverware drawer is so loose

I liked that about the kid co ones, but don't know if they would work on my cabinets or drawers from reading the reviews.
