Questions & Answers

Can someone please explain these unreal product dimensions? Product Depth (in.)3.63 Product Height (in.)7.63 Product Length (in.)7.63 Product Width (in.)3.63 See the pictures for the actual and most important dimensions. With the actual dimensions measured, as shown in the pictures, these child safety latches will only allow normal 1/2 inch or 3/4 inch thick cabinet doors or drawers to open about 5/8 inch. This is too narrow to allow normal grown up fingers to get in there to release the latch.

BTW: Somewhere in the installation instructions (I think) it says that if the overhang of the countertop is "too much" over a top drawer, you will need a rounded knife to reach in and depress the latch to open the drawer :/ .

    They don’t work well if you have drawers above the cabinet , the clips are too short and can’t get your fingers in there to release the clip

    I suspect you were referring to the dimensions of the package, not the individual clips. The "product" is the 10-pack.The clips are as described. Also, clips can be installed at the top, bottom or vertical edge of a cabinet door.

      What is the height of the latch from the base to the actual hook? Will it snap over a 3/4" thick door?

      Answer This Question

      Thank you for your question. The latch hook does not need to engage with your cabinet frame. It will snap over the included catch component. However, yes, the latch length is longer than 3/4th inch.

        how do the latches work

        Answer This Question

        The end of the plastic latch is raised so if a child tries to open the drawer, it will lock against the plastic catch. To open the drawer, the latch needs to be depressed so it will not lock when pulling the drawer out.

          They don't. Buy a different brand.

            Install them at top middle of the drawers or if on a cabinet install at the top corner of the cabinet where it opens from. The latch will hook onto the clip that comes with it and to open the drawer/cabinet, simply open a little bit and then push down on the latch to open the rest of the way.

              The latches are great. Actually, they are easier to open than the non-spring type. This particular brand is a little bit harder to adjust at installation but once you get them adjusted and put in that third retaining screw they are set. When I say harder to adjust I mean they are very sensitive to exact positioning of the latch against the catch. The installation template is a "godsend". Let me know if you need any more info.

                Summarized by generative AI from text of customer reviews

                Customers say the cabinet and drawer safety latches are easy to install and provide effective child-proofing for cabinets. Many appreciate the included template for installation, while others find the latch design too short, making it difficult to engage or disengage. Common pain points include the quality of screws and the latch's functionality with various cabinet styles. Overall, while some users report satisfaction with the product's performance, others suggest it may not be suitable for all cabinet configurations.

                Bait & Switch
                The packaging disclaims the product for safety[1], which the item page contradicts[2,3]. “Safety 1st” misleadingly implies that the product should be used to improve safety. The Website assigns the product to a category[4] and offers related searches[5], both which imply the product is suitable for child-proofing, which is false. Notes: [1] See photo; [2] “Keeps children out…”; [3] “Helps keep cabinets and drawers secure” [4] “…Child Safety > Child Proof Safety Locks & Latches”; [5] See photo.

                Thanks for your transparent review. We would like to express our sincerest apologies for the latches not functioning as intended. Please contact our Consumer Care team at 800-544-1108 and we'll address this issue accordingly.
                  New Design is Flawed
                  I bought the previous version and they performed great. These new ones are too short and angle up too much. You have to I stall them lower to get the latch to work, and it misses the trim. Why? Why change a good design? I opened the package and was immediately ticked off. The old design was longer and the latch wasn’t angled, so it was easy to install and use. Lame.

                    A little frustrating.
                    These items have decent plastic build quality. I would have liked to see them a little longer or the clip ends to be forward more to allow space to reach in. The screws are awful quality. I broke three and stripped one. This led to frustration as I needed to re-mount the whole setup to accommodate. Id suggest looking elsewhere.

                      Too short
                      As other reviewers noted, these are too short and you can’t get your fingers inside to undo the latch. You have to poke it with something. I did find them to be easy to install.

                        Poor Design
                        This is an absolutely pitiful design. It will keep your cabinet shut against not just toddlers, but any adult that wants to access the cabinet as well because you can't open the door far enough to release the latch. If you want to permanently seal your cabinet, this is the product for you. you will also sheer off at least 3 out of 5 screws. I couldn't even use it.

                            I hate when I purchase an item and then have to modify it to make it work correctly! The front edge of the "catch" should have been designed with a bevel to allow the latch to glide over it. Instead, it has a blunt edge that stops the latch. This makes it impossible to shut the cabinet door or drawer without manually pressing down on the latch each time. If you mount the latch low enough so that it actually clears the catch, it won't keep the cabinet door or drawer secure. My solution was to use my Dremel to shape a ramp for the latch to travel on. The modified latches work perfectly once this is done. I would have given this product 5 stars if they had been manufactured this way to begin with.

                              They are too short (1/2" shorter vs old ones). Not enough opening for fingers to reach the latch. You will need to ask one of your little ones themselves to open it for you!

                                Doesn't work on some drawers with overhanging tops but on most doors and drawers they work great.

                                Should have self tapping screws to make the installation easier.
