Tot-Lok Starter Set

Comments about Rev-A-Shelf Inc Tot-Lok Starter Set:

A great product. We bought a new house between our 1st and 2nd child and had to baby-proof this home and learned from the 1st home we didn't want the flimsy plastic childproof methods. Tot-loks are awesome. My husband is handy, but after he read the directions he had them installed in 10-15 minutes. I love them and today I am buying a couple more because we have more cupboards installed in our laundry room. A power drill is necessary for installation. I'm onsidering the use of them for our ammunition drawer as well.

If you have no do it yourself skills like most of the other reviews, don't try to install these yourself unless you don't care if your cabinets get ruined. If you have a nice cabinet or whatever you're putting these on, make sure you know what you're doing. [*]...... do not be cheap, Hire someone who knows what they're doing.

As others have noted, these things are not necessarily easy to install. In my case, I found the house had cheap cabinets, upshot of which is that I had to find and glue a small piece of 3/8'' plywood to the inside of the door in order to mount the locking mechanism. It would indeed be easy to drill a rather large hole through the door if one was not careful.
It takes a little getting used to grabbing the "key" every time you want to open the cabinet, and it does take a little practice in knowing where to place the key. But when locked, the doors do not open even a little, so the little guy can't get his fingers jammed in there as with more traditional cabinet locks.

Love this door lock. My only suggestion would be to include an extra key for those days when the key gets lost.

We have Tot-Locks in our kitchen and 1 bathroom. They are great! A friend introduced us to them years ago. We've had them installed them a couple of years ago. Our 3 years old in starting to understand how they work so we just hind the handle. We've shown them to severla first time parents and grandparents and now they have them too! I love Tot-Locks!!!!

We love these locks! The first one was a little tricky to install but once we got the hang of the diagram they were a breeze to put in. I love the fact that little fingers can't get pinched when they're determined to try and get that cupboard open. People that come to our house are so impressed by them. I'm so glad we bought them!

A week ago, my husband installed these locks on all of our kitchen cabinets, and 4 of our bathroom cabinets. Love them! Piece of mind for the safety of my curious 14 month old, and sanity for Mommy! They have a great lock OFF feature, which allows you to leave the cabinets un-locked if you choose. (IE: If you have company etc.) This is a fabulous product!

Love that the cabinets and drawers still look good and are now safely locked. Multiple magnet "keys" allow me to put them in various, easy access spots.

These take awhile to install, but are totally worth it. I had beautiful brand new cabinets and couldn't bear ruining them or sticking that awful adhesive to them. But of course I had to keep my baby (ok, he's a toddler now - but still my baby) away from all the dangerous cleaners and stuff under the sink.

I just keep the magnet "Lok" on the fridge up where he can't reach it, and now it is such a habit to use I don't even think about it.

I also love the feature where you can temporarily disable it, for instance if you are cooking and using the cabinet a lot and the baby is not there. That way it is just like normal.

And you can't see a thing from the outside.

used this for my kitchen cabinets under the sink where I store cleaners. I couldn't find something that would fit on the handles because my cabinets are old and other products that go around the handles would not fit. Makes keeping the cleaners under the sink much safer now...

Love them! Easy to install - comes with an easy template so you don't make unnecessary holes. Keeps our daughter out of the cabinets/drawers and keeps them snug so there are no pinched fingers either! Highly recommend!

It is a little difficult to learn to use the magnet to unlock the cabinets, but it does get easier with practice!

This is the only cupboard lock I've found that my toddler can't overcome and doesn't drive me up a wall. Just don't loose that magnet key!
