Revainrating 3 out of 5

Perfect for protecting young children

UPDATE 5/17/2018 We've had 6 breaks out of 12 since we bought them a few years ago. As a rule, there are no warnings, they just break. My 2 year old son closed the closet and the white piece broke. We now have 4 cabinets with no working locks. I've ordered another pack but it's frustrating that they break just as easily as they do. I still think they're a great product and keep new kids from breaking into closets, but wish they lasted longer (some of them still work even after being opened a few times a day). A plus is that my wife says they are relatively easy to remove as she had to take them off so we could replace them. UPDATE 11/12/2016 Another safety pawl broke. It turns out that accessing a cabinet with a latch often causes lean-back stress. This stress will eventually cause the white/clear portion to loosen (like bending a paper clip multiple times) and then break. This only happened with the most used cabinets, and all others seem to be doing fine. However, it seems like they should last longer than a couple/several months if they're placed in a place that needs to be opened up frequently, like the cupboard under the sink where we get trash bags, dishwashing liquid and dishes. I appreciate the company being kind enough to provide us with extra locks after a break, but I would have preferred if they had lasted longer. Update 7/30/2016 My daughter came to me this morning with one of the locks which had accidentally broken. . It wasn't treated any differently than the other 11 fuses we use, so I was surprised to see these. This is a clean crack as shown in the picture. Now I have to replace it because it kept the little one away from the painting supplies so he couldn't show off his painting skills on the walls and floor. However, I don't need 6 of them. They were a lot better than the latches that are on the back of the cabinets so little ones can't access them. They did a great job keeping our 2 year old son out of the closets. He quickly ran out of cupboards and now spends less time in the kitchen. It was awesome because now we don't have to worry about it ruining our dishes or getting into dangerous chemicals under the kitchen sink. When properly installed they don't even open up much which was a major deterrent for my son. They were easy to install. I just watched a video online and I was ready to go. I also like that they come in a variety of colors to better match the cabinets. Will definitely be buying another set for bathrooms and other closets in the house.
