I would like your permission to use you excellent photo of the childproof fridge in a lecture to young dentists, reminding them that children should not eat right before having operations or laughing gas. Thank you.

Where are you from, Karen, are you from US? Here is a website where you can order via Internet something similar, the “wonder locks”, have a look here http://babypro.com/custom/web/list.asp?c=25383.

Thanks, it took me some time to find that one. Originally I had it installed on a drawer, but there Eric could reach and open it. I re-located it and on the fridge it works great.

This can be actually another tip - instead of buying new locks, try to re-use the ones you’ve already got. They might not work for one cupboard but will for another :)

I recently placed a lock like yours in our fridge and it works really great. My son is now trying to work out how he can reach the lock and open it. BTW, I loved what you did with your dishwasher, it is very creative of you.

Hey I really like this post. very helpful. I would like the one for my fridge since my three year old thinks she can just get in there whenever she wants to. Can I get this at walmart? let me know.

Thanks Brett, so far Eric didn’t manage to open the deadbolt but he’s getting smarter every day. I really don’t think that there are any locks that 100 percent child-proof. The locks are there to slow them down, really :) and allow us, parents, to catch them just in time.
