When you have little kids, you should keep your eyes on everything around you, because everything can be potentially dangerous.
To make your house childproof, you should think twice about every possible (and impossible!) danger.
Here's how you can achieve that.
Cover Electrical Outlets with Sliding Panels
Instead of simple safety caps, use outlet covers with sliding panels for added convenience and security.
Secure Cabinets and Drawers with High-Quality Locks
Install childproof locks that are sturdy and child-resistant on cabinets, while using latches or locks for drawers that are out of your child's reach.
Install Stair Gates with Hardware Mounts
Use safety gates at the top and bottom of stairs, ensuring they are hardware-mounted for better stability.
Cord Winders and Anchors for Cords
Prevent cord-related accidents by using cord winders and anchors to keep cords from blinds, curtains, and electronics out of reach.
Store Medicines and Cleaning Supplies in Locked Cabinets
Ensure these potentially harmful items are kept in a locked cabinet or high up where kids cannot access them.
Use Quality Corner Guards
Invest in high-quality corner guards made of foam or plastic to protect sharp corners and edges of furniture.
Anchor Heavy Furniture with Wall Straps
Secure large and heavy pieces like bookshelves, dressers, and TVs with furniture straps or wall anchors to prevent tip-overs.
Window Locks and Guards
Install window locks and guards that prevent windows from opening too wide, keeping your child safe while allowing for emergency openings.
Consider Door Knob Covers for Exterior Doors
Prevent unsupervised outdoor excursions by installing door knob covers on exterior doors.
