Brilliant to use
Very effective easy to use blends in really Will with inside cupboards. I’m very disabled so only put them on when my family come to visit me. Which is brilliant not to have to stress about my grandkids. And have quality time with them and there parents . Before using these I got fed up with the no word. Strongly recommend brilliant price and plenty of them in the box
Nice lock for cabine
My todlar was taking out everything from kitchen cabinet. I tried so many locks but he figured out to open easily. When I bought and installed my boy couldn’t open any cabinet door.
Extremely well thought ou
These are great, my cat learned how to open cupboards and he wouldn’t stop. These have been great, the mechanism is very intuitive to use, and it’s unintrusive and hidden – yet very functional.
Few products have the satisfaction level that this has.
Very Good
I had a couple of reservations about these, would the sticky pads hold and magnets work through unit doors and drawers, both were unfounded. I followed the intructions and fitted these to cupboards and deep drawers. They are quick and straight foward to fit, they work well, and my 16 month has yet to beat one! Result.
The pack also contains enough for most kitchens I would imagine. It does make opening the unit a two hand job, as the magnet needs to be held as you open the drawer / cupboard. I will recommend these amd use again if required.
Amazing product!!
Couldn’t fault the product at all! Works so well and once you’ve watched the video of how to fit them, they literally take 30 seconds to fit. Look so discreet and easy to use.
Really good, do exactly what they say on the packet and seem very strong so far
10/10!! Well done to whoever invented these!
Absolutely fantastic!
These things are brilliant! Installed all 10 in about 10 mins and had no issues.
Ignore the reviews about poor adhesion etc… There are screw slots on every lock and catch which will help solve that issue, including extra adhesive pads that have been provided in the box. Also, maybe prep your surface better?
Anyway, 110% recommended.
Life saver!
Would 100% recommend, they took a minute to figure out how to place them but once I had figured it out they were a dream. Absolutely saving my sanity as my son was pulling everything out if all the cupboards constantly!
These are Absolutely Fantastic!
Like all new parents we had concerns about our daughter’s safety for when she started walking. After all, everything that isn’t ‘nailed down’ has to be opened, picked up and investigated by a little one.
So it was important we found ways to prevent her from accessing dangerous items, including those in some of our cupboards and drawers.
However, we wanted to avoid drilling holes into our cupboards if we could avoid it and we found these, ‘Magnetic Safety Cupboard Locks for Children’.
In short, these have been Absolutely Fantastic!
The pack comes with 10 locks and 2 magnetic keys, and we have been using them for over a year now and they have done exactly what we wanted them for! Preventing our little one from opening cupboard doors and drawers that contain harmful items.
The locks can also be left in an ‘open’ position, so when you don’t need a door or drawer locked they can be opened without needing the magnetic key.
If you are looking for a way to help protect your child and ‘baby proof’ your home without the need for drilling then give these serious consideration as they come Highly Recommended!

Great produc
Great product so easy to click the lock when my granddaughter as gone home for the day , try to make sure your doors are 100% in line I’ve got one that isn’t and installation was a bit of a pai
Brillia
Watch the video with the instructions. So easy to fit. If the adhesive does weaken there are screw holes. Very simple & easy product to use. Stickers very useful to remind you it’s locked. Great feature that you can disable the catch too. Definitely recommend
Perfect product.
Very solid product. Easy to install especially once you do the first one. Option to screw if looking for extra safety. Very good option to lock them Open if they aren’t needed, can be a bit tedious to have to use the magnet multiple times. Would fully recommend.
Easy to fit, work as they should, excellent.
These are very easy to fit, really good quality and work perfectly. We got them to keep a pup out of the kitchen cupboards, he worked out very early how to open them and they have done the trick. Also there’s no screws etc so no sign of them from the outside. Excellent.
Perfect item
Where all other child locks have failed, this one surpasses all expectations! It works brilliantly, it appears discreet, a bit fiddly to fit but once you get one right, the others become a doddle. Out of all the ones I’ve tried, this is the one!!
Very good at what they do but now have a scratched door!
These work very well. Easy to fit using the sticky mounts and the fitting tool included. They can also be reinforced with screws if needed to make them more solid. Release first time every time if the magnet is put in the correct place. The locking mechanism on the latch is very handy to allow the door to open freely without the magnet when needed, then easily clicks back to child proof mode when you need it to.
However, they come with stickers with a padlock symbol on which should be stuck on the door to show where the magnet needs to be placed. These do not look particularly good, and when on every door in the kitchen you actually notice it a lot more than you think you would. We chose not to use the stickers in the end, and as a result sometimes struggle to find where the magnet needs to go so end up moving it around on the door until it releases. After a month or so of use this has scratched the gloss door of the unit.
I understand this is mainly user error, but just something to be aware of and may be a reason to look at other types of door catches.

Safe
Easy to install with all instructions. Cupboards, drawers and everything else got locked from little explorer who just started walking. Easy to use with the magnet. Plenty locks and 2 magnets enough to lock everything away and by pushing the lock tab back in you can keep ir unlocked. The cubord wit the snacks got riped open but replaced with the new and all was good. Adhesive was still there but the soft foam broken. There is holes on them if you want to screw them in. Transparent sticker with the lock sign helps to rember where to put magnet. Suggest to put lock next to handle as it is easier to open it with magnet one handed especially when you holding child in other hand. Magnet holding cap can be sticked anywhere where it is handy so it does not get lost.

Great produc
Wish I bought sooner, absolutely did the job and didn’t need to get drill or screwdriver out. Thought it was a tad expensive but now I’ve had them for a couple of months wished I’d bought sooner. My baby girl hasn’t been able to raid the cupboards now so instead she’s decided to start scribbling on the wooden floors instead!
Like i
Arrived promptly.
Good instructions and great application tool. Hope strong enough to survive my kids efforts. Be careful couple off the smaller parts had to be installed sticking over one mm of the edges of the furniture as didn’t locked or didn’t open effortlessly. Due the locking latch couldn’t reach it.
Was removed with sharp knife pealed off the remaining sticer with hand and used spare adhesive sticer.
I think best child lock I tried so far.
Safety style.
This product is excellent. The only reason I haven’t given 5 stars is purely for the fact that it is a little annoying to have to grab the magnet key every time you need anything whilst cooking in the moment. That aside (and obviously that’s a small price to pay) I am really happy. The lack of visibility from the outside, is for a very neat/ tidy person (me obvs) immensely pleasing. Installation was easy, and actually quite fun – don’t use the Manuel though, lots of faffy explanations of how to apply, actually more confusing with that – just watch the YouTube video!
Our newly walking toddler (try as she might) cannot get into the low danger kitchen cupboards anymore. Breathes sign of relief.
Great product, highly recommend.

Great alternative to locks installed with screws....clean desig
I’ve been so happy with these locks. Getting a hang of installation takes a bit of concentration and practice, but it’s not terribly difficult. I love that it’s meant no screw holes in my cupboards and my kids are safe. They think I’m a magician with my magic (magnetic) wand – just don’t lose it!! Unfortunately, my little ones removed the stickers used to indicate where to place the opener so I’ve ended up doing a bit of hunting around to find the right spot to place the opener. If your kids aren’t as mischievous as mine, opening is a cinch.

Great Product, My Food Is Safe!
I bought this product as my kittens had figured out how to get into my cupboards to make a mess and steal all my food. So I got these magnetic child locks! They were super easy to install and they work great. I’ve had these for around 6 months now and they are super sticky! I’ve even had to take off some of the clasps just to reposition them and they are just as sticky as when I first installed them without any screws. The only annoying thing is that I keep forgetting the exact spot where I installed them so I have to move the magnet around a little bit. Apart from that they are perfect! Would definitely recommend!

Very simple. After you’ve thoroughly read the instructions and put one up, the rest are very simple now you’ve got the hang of it. Got these as my clever Beagle has really started to figure out opening doors. Rather than installing locks on doors, this is just a simple magnet lock and I don’t need anything stronger. They just stick on with 3M tape, but if you really want there is the option to screw them on.
Such a simple but genius idea that’s easy to install.

Perfect no screw locks, ideal for grandparents.
I am a new Nana & I will having my granddaughter here when her Mummy goes back to work so I wanted some cupboard locks that didn’t need screwing into my units & that I could also only have locked when the kids are over here. These were the perfect solution, I fitted them myself today, super easy with the booklet & video & the only tool need was a pencil. As you can see they are nice and neat & even the key can be stuck inside an unlocked cupboard or up on a wall for safe keeping. Very impressive from the idea, to install to the helpful video. Both my granddaughters parents & my soon to arrive grandsons parents are using the same locks in their homes. My favorite thing is that when the children are not here I just flip the lock catch & no more locked doors.

Secure and easy to fit baby safe magnetic catches.
A simple but clever applicator allows for quick and accurate fitting of the cupboard locks. Once you have fitted one and got the hang of the applicator, the other locks can be fitted very quickly- seconds in some cases. The lock has an off position, which means that the cupboard doors and drawers can be used in the normal way without the lock operating. This is ideal, for example, if you only need to secure them at certain times of the day or certain days of the week when grand children visit.

Watch the video first.
Arrived promptly, written instructions not particularly clear then watched the video. Very easy to fit after second or third one,very effective and absolutely childproof, would recommend.
Brilliant safety device
This drawer and door safety system is brilliant. Installation with the supplied guide makes it very quick and easy. Very robust. Means my 2 and 6 year olds cant get into where there shouldn’t.
One Installation I will add is make sure you check if you have any pads on your drawers or doors. This means there’s a bit more of a gap between the door and the cupboard so place the plastic guide so it protrudes a little forwards. Means the catch will stick first time.
Granny's must have
Having been alerted to the fact that my grandson arriving the next day, age 9 months, was now almost walking and opening all cupboards – I found and ordered these on Prime. Reviews were great. I have a smart newly done kitchen – equipped for adults. These locks are perfect and do not show on the outside of my drawers and cupboards and I can ‘switch’ them off when his visit is over. As long as you remember where the fixings are so you can align your unlock magnet quickly – it is easy. I have to confess I asked my son in law to fit them the minute he arrived! He and my daughter have fitted the same in their kitchen having seen mine work so well. Thrilled with my investment!

Absolutely brilliant!
I bought these to keep my 9 month old out of the cupboards and so far they are brilliant I’m so impressed! They are so easy to install with no mess, 7 cupboards took me about 45 mins. It’s a really clever little design. The magnets are so strong along with the sticky pads. The locks can be left in the unlock position if for example you’re cooking and need to be in and out of them without wanting to unlock each time. Just remember to flick the catch again! Thoroughly recommended 🙂
Child proof when needed to be
Just a little bit tricky to install ..to be fair at first we never allowed for the buffers on our units and once we did they worked well so just take your time and don’t fit flush if you have buffers also don’t put them too close to handles that go across..that was another problem we encountered as we couldn’t fit the magnet in …having said that I am now extremely pleased with them they work well and when I don’t need them I just click them up and child lock is off. An older child can be told how to open them by using the magnet (they open very easily when you know how) then just keep the magnet out of younger child’s reach .
Simple to use
Can’t really testify to adhesive qualities as not yet on cupboards for more than a few days, but adhesive appears up to the task for laminate coated doors. Used on doors and are really simple to unlock so long as you remember exactly where locks are placed (not visible when doors are closed). Had some doubts as to magnetic unlock but magnets are equal to task. One challenge is to install locks EXACTLY where required. Snibbing is quite intolerant even if lock placed even a tiny bit out of perfect alignment. Would definitely buy again and recommend to others for standard kitchen cabinets
Seems really good, but you need to apply it perfectly
They work great. No baby/toddler is getting into the cupboards. The only thing is when we put one of them in, it was about mm too far back, so we had to remove it and reapply it. Fair dues to the adhesive, it was a nightmare to get off, I’d say Dwayne Johnson would struggle to force these open, never mind a toddler. This thought me 2 lessons:
1. If you put it in wrong, put it too far forward. If it’s too far back the latch gets stuck and you can’t unlock it/ get into the cupboard.
2. We removed and reused the same adhesive, and the adhesive just wasn’t as strong. After about a week it just fell off during a heat wave (about 30 degrees outside). But they include spare adhesive strips, so in future if you have to remove and reapply, replace the adhesive strip.
Overall: good. Would buy again.
Supplier: great. Arrived on time in mint condition.

Easy to setup and great to use.
I’ve tried quite a few cupboard locks and these are by far the best. With the added installation device it’s a doddle to setup a new lock. You even get extra sticky pads in case something goes wrong and you need to re-apply a device. The locks work well and as long as you place the magnet opener somewhere memorable you’ll have no problems. I’ve been using them for four months and even though they are simply sticky pads my little one has not managed to get into any of cupboard and drawers, not for lack of trying.
They work great! Well made with great support, clear instructions
I was dead against fitting child safety locks to our brand new kitchen. However, the Aycorn kit is invisible, easy to install with the provided applicator tool and they work as described.
One point to note is that to get the best out of the kit, you must follow the instructions. Wipe down the cupboard surfaces to ensure the adhesive can get a secure fix.
Aycorn provide a clear instructional video explaining how to fit and once you have done one, you will fit the rest real quickly.
Cupboards are now secure and can be kept unlocked when required.
The kit is well made, well packaged with clear instructions and good support available if you get stuck.
See their YouTube channel for instructional video.
simple if you follow instructions.
These fasteners work excellently, providing that you follow the instructions to install them. Clean any greasy fingerprints etc. off and dry the surface. do be consistent about where you put the fasteners because you cannot see them after you shut the door. I always put then in the top opening corner. Apply the little lock transfers to show other users. You can just hear the lock click open and shut as you apply then remove the magnet. The magnet has to stay on the door as you start to open it. There is no chance of a child pulling the door open a few millimetres then jamming their fingers in the gap. Very useful, you can click the catch to stay open when you want to get in frequently and there are no children around.

Magnetic cupboard locks - Very good produc
I find these work very well on cupboard doors. Baby can’t open the kitchen cupboards now.
We have some big drawers for pots and I couldn’t get the lock to engage on those. Lucky you get some spare adhesives so I will try again.
For the doors where it did work, it works as it’s meant to. Can’t open the doors without the key. They were easy to fit using the little tool. Will probably buy more for the Grandparent’s houses.
Pretty good
I originally set it up near ish the door handle – that interferes with the magnet, so I had to move it a after that, it worked pretty well. Applying everything was a bit fiddly at first too, but after the first try I got into a good rhythm and it was easy
Fit them well and they are perfec
A bit of trial and error installing them (instructions could be clearer so maybe watch a video) but once fitted they really do the job. My doors are quite thick, solid wood and the magnets work well through them
Effective but room for improvement.
Installation is fine once you get used to having done the process a couple of times. Sometimes the catches don’t always engage on the latch or they don’t return to their “open” position when closing drawers. Overall pretty good. However I think they could be excellent with some improvements or further product development.
Great Hidden Baby Proofing!
Our little girl has started to open every door and drawer in sight so we knew it was time to baby proof them but alot are stuck on the front of the doors and with a brand new kitchen I didnt want anything that could potentially damage them and make them look unsightly so these work perfectly! Now I wont lie it can be annoying to have to go get the ‘key’ to unlock a cupboard but to have them invisible is worth it for us. It can take a bit of getting used to to open them but once you have done it a few times its second nature!

Surprisingly Brillia
I wasn’t expecting too much from these locks, but they’re superb. Easy to fit and the locks are surprisingly strong – the 3M glue patches adhere quickly and will resist most casual attempts to open the cabinet. Obviously, an adult putting their strength into it will overcome the lock without too much trouble, but they’re strong enough to deter younger children from accidentally wandering into places they shouldn’t be.
How clever !!
I’m really pleased with these very clever child locks.
When my kids were toddlers the only decent solution was to screw child locks onto the cupboard carcass which was a laborious process!
These clever locks are fitted in a couple of minutes and believe me the adhesive is strong and instant … I know this and take heed of this if you buy the set… Make sure you put the catch part the right way up in the fitting block m, because if you don’t you’ll have a job taking it off to turn it round !!
My error apart, I’m chuffed with these locks and they do work very very well
Great product with bonus comedy value
Despite having numerous toys to play with, the little one decided to empty the kitchen cupboards on a daily basis leading to my frustration at having to clean up. My only regret is not buying these sooner. Now the kitchen is clean and clutter free and the little one gets frustrated at not being able to open the cupboards and swiftly returns to play with toys.
I should mention I didn’t put the stickers to mark the locations of the locks. The added benefit is I now get to watch my wife’s frustration whilst struggling to open the cupboards.
I’m thinking to get these for all cupboards in the house. My only concern is the wife’s reaction may include divorce proceedings as a result. All in all a great product, easy to use, child proof and can be adult proof should you wish.

Simple, effective and don’t even notice they’re there
I bought these a couple years ago when our first child was one but we never took them out of the box as we closed the kitchen off with a baby gate. Now in a new house with an open plan kitchen and baby number 2, we have finally put them to use. Very impressed with how easy they are to operate and they don’t change the aesthetic in the kitchen. There is one cupboard door that struggles to open on the first attempt with the key, but I think it has to do with the limited way we could place the lock on the back of the door. I like that the locks can be left unlatched for grown up ease of access but then quickly latched if baby comes near. Baby is 9 months so we’ll see how they hold up as she gets older and stronger, but so far so good.
Excellent and highly recommended
We’ve just bought our second set of these locks, having moved a set between houses and now adding them to additional cupboards.
The original appeal was the fact they aren’t obvious or intrusive like many alternatives and they can be easily disengaged for a while, if you don’t need the cupboard to stay locked. Despite the kids’ best efforts, we’ve had no failures and the locks were easy enough to remove and set up in the new house.
My only advice would be to be sure you’ve put them in the best place on the door. I put our first set behind the handle which was a bit awkward for placing the magnet.
We’ve recommended these to loads of friends. They’d be great for grandparents houses too, where they could be switched on when the grandkids are over but left off normally.
Easy enough to instsall. Glue strong enough to defeat an adult, let alone our 2 year old grandson.
Great product, well supported by a great installation video. I would give this 5 stars, but fitting depends critically on how your cupboards and drawers work. For example, I needed to stick additional batons onto both the kitchen and bathroom sink cupboards to give enough support for the fixed part of the lock. This was not difficult but would not suit anyone who is not “handy” or does not have a saw, strong glue and suitable off-cuts of wood to hand.
Best child proof locks I bough
These are great locks!
They go inside the doors and drawers which make them invisible from the outside (apart from the stickers), they are very easy to operate and they don’t ruin the aesthetics of the furniture.
The adhesion is quite good. I did have issues with one of them, but here are spare adhesives in the box so it was quite easy to fix it.
Mostly importantly the little one is unable to open them and there is no risk of him figuring out how to unlock them since they need the magnetic key to open.
Definitely would buy again!
Do the job! *UPDATE*
UPDATE the day after posting my review I seem to be having issues with the locks not locking after opening. Not sure why, but I now have to lift and push the doors slightly in order to get them to lock again, which is a bit annoying! Star knocked off for this.
********
After initially struggling to install the first one (which was my fault due to long handles not allowing me to put the magnet in the right place) I managed to fit them all at the top of the cupboards. Some required me to bring the catch inside the cupboard forward slightly, to ensure they locked. Also had some issues with being able to open them initially, despite being locked. However after leaving for the recommended 24hrs to adhere sufficiently, they are working brilliantly and I’m really impressed!

Decent way to secure cupboards and drawers.
Once you get the hang of fitting them, they are quite good.
The absence adhesive is strong, and keeps little children out of cupboards.
If you want to remove them, you need to be careful getting then off without using a tool that week damage the surface. But they can be removed ok.
Usefully, the openers can be stuck to the outside corners of raid walls where there is metal under the plaste
Effective
This are effective (so far). Had them on for a couple of weeks and my one year old hasn’t managed to get into any cupboards yet (not for lack of trying…)
They were pretty straightforward to install. Sticky pads feel very strong, at least on laminated kitchen units. The little applicator thing ensures accurate alignment. They’re easy to open with the magnet (there’s two of them so you can keep one on each side of the kitchen). You can click them to one side to get them to latch off permanently, so if you’re in the kitchen and cooking something big you can unlock them permanently until you’re finished.

A little fiddly but definitely worth the work
A little fiddly to fit but it’s worth the hassle. First of all, do check your cupboards and accept the fact that this type of magnetic lock won’t work on all draws and cupboards, when I first bought it I was gutted they don’t fit my wardrobe draws however, they do fit many others (I just bought another pack for the kitchen) once you get the hang of it, I was doing one draw every three mins! Some draws do need a little adjustment, ie, if you find your lock is not hooking on, just move the small part a little bit forward. I like the little lock stickers, they kinda look cool (must be the mum thing)

Reliable door lock - highly recommend for kids
I would highly recommend this product if you have small kids and need to keep your cabinets locked.
We first bought the straps in front of the door but our toddler quickly learned to pull it off. This remains hidden and the lock is strong so our toddler will try to open the door, fail and move on. Adhesion seems strong and is age appropriate.
Could be easier to install but I got there after watching their online videos. The only other knock is that it is not very sleek so if you have cabinets with tight spaces eg washer behind a built in cupboard it may not fit perfectly. While it locks the door sticks out because the lock is too big to fit in between the washer and cabinet top.
I would highly recommend for anyone with kids.
Easy to install and effective!
This product is easy to install once you get the hang of it! A word of warning is that the adhesive is so strong that if you make a mistake, it’s hard to rectify. But once installed, it becomes second nature to use the magnet. I find the magnet mechanism better than the push locks, my little cousin figured out the push locks pretty quickly whereas my little one stands no chance of getting into the cupboards now. We love that the lock can be disabled, this means that when my little boy goes to my Mum’s she can enable the lock but disable them when my little one isn’t there (otherwise my Dad can’t figure out why the cupboard isn’t opening lol – maybe a good way of keeping him from getting the chocs!). Love that the pack comes with two magnets, my husband threw the magnet key away once and then closed the cupboard door before realising what he’d done. Thankfully, we keep the other magnet in the utility so he could use that key to retrieve the kitchen key! A slight downside is that we can’t fit them to some of our shallow drawers but we could fit them to the corner cupboards by attached the lock mechanism to the underside of the countertop. I think it’s good value for money having 10 locks supplied in the pack. Overall, I’d recommend these and I’m glad we chose them!!

Great but pain to line up
Got these to replace outside stick on baby safety locks and they’ve been great. Bit of a pain to line up and work fitted to the door with the lock on middle bit of wood or on top for corner units. When lining up don’t press down or they’re a pain to move. Once lined up correctly then press them fully down.
These are amazing on kitchen cupboard doors!!
These are literally a game changer! We have an open plan flat and our 1 yo son was constantly opening all our kitchen cupboards and pulling everything out, ripping off other self adhesive locks which were on the outside of the doors. And due to have two corner cupboards which are hinged in the middle we could not even use the screw in ones as they just were not working.
We were a bit dubious about these working but my husband installed them as soon as they came, a little bit fiddly to do apparently but it was worth it. Getting the knack right to open them takes a while but once you sort this they work a treat. I have already recommended them to other people for cupboard doors. The only thing we have not tried to fit them on a drawer as we have had no need.
So easy to use
I bought the Aycorn cupboard looks because of the excellent reviews and to support a small family business. They are to stop my grandson getting in my cupboards and what is great with these is that you can ‘unlock’ them on the days he’s not here and then slip the lock down just before he arrives and it is very quick to do. Once my husband (helped by my much more diy minded son-in-law) worked out how to install them (it took him a while!) they were fab. They are very sticky so don’t stick them in the wrong place. The magnetic release is very novel.

Fantastic cupboard locks. 5*
I have been so impressed by these locks I’ve decided to write my first amazon review. It took a bit of working out how to install them but, once you have, they are fantastic. Our 1 year old had been terrorising the cupboards but since these have been installed he has given up!
What I really like about them is that they don’t ruin the look of the cupboards (they are completely hidden from view), you can disable them for when the little one isn’t around, they don’t require any drilling and, finally, they seem to be super-strong (our little man has given them a thorough test!).
Well worth the money. 5*.
Good quality produc
The installation video was well put together and avoids having to read reams of instructions. The only problem I had was with the adhesive on one of the locks in that the lock came off when I applied too much pressure to open the door when it was still locked. I think this probably had more to do with the fact I omitted to to wipe the area with a dry cloth before applying the adhesive. If necessary I can stick it back with a small amount of superglue. All in all a clever product which I would recommend to others.
Mostly worked - depends on cupboards/draws
We used these in the kitchen to stop our 20 month old getting in the cupboards and draws, took a little time to install them but seem to be working and now he doesn’t even try anymore.
We also used them on a chest of draws however there was not enough surface area to stick the lock and although there is an option to add screws our son managed to pull it all apart. This is more down to the draws than the locks I would say.
A good secure safety lock for cupboards.
We needed locks for kitchen cupboards seen as my daily life is filling the cupboards up after a 1 year old empties them. We did have the common locks with the plastic bit you press in however our little one kept trapping their fingers in the door, I didn’t know you could get different types of locks for cupboards and these magnetic ones are really good.
Easy enough to install, on a cupboard, not so much on drawer as the applicator is to big for the inside of the drawer. I haven’t installed on the drawer yet due to having to measure it out and having the time when I don’t have little hands trying to “help”. The adhesive is strong and they have given you some replacement, I drop a lock out of the applicator which stuck to the floor and still it stuck to the cupboard and hasn’t come off. The lock can fall out of the applicator when installing but just take your time and try not to have a little one being a “distraction”.
It takes a few days to get used to needing the magnet to unlock the doors and I did use the little stickers to mark where the lock is otherwise I am moving the magnet over the door for a while. I love how you can stick the magnet on the wall and it is really easy to get in and out of its seat. When I empty the dishwasher, I unlock the locks which you simply push the hook down so I do have to keep using the magnet, then click back up to lock.
Great product, I no longer have a little one scream because they have trapped their fingers and I no longer have to move all my cleaning products or breakables into the high cupboards.

Not perfect, but useful
I bought a pack of these to secure kitchen draws and cupboards. Fitting them was simple – the handy applicator means you can line up each lock with its latch, without any need for measurement.
Several months later most have stood up to the efforts of an inquisitive toddler, however the adhesive finally gave up on two of the latches. Fortunately a few spare pads are thrown in, but if you want to be absolutely sure you might want to screw things in place.
Instructions not too clear. Seem to be doing the job
I thought the instructions weren’t too clear but once I watched the video it was a lot clearer. They seem to be holding up so far on the job. Time will tell if they will be able to withstand my little boy yanking on the handles wondering why the drawers not longer open. I would recommend these though.
brilliant produc
I didn’t fit these for a while as my grandson was only a few months old, as soon as he started crawling I put them on the cupboards in the kitchen. they are excellent, he’s now nearly walking, so i’ve put them on the drawers too.
he pulls himself up with the cupboard handles and they have not budged, also they’ve had a few hard yanks by the adults, as we forget they are on, and I really love that we can unlock these when he’s not about, so were not constantly grabbing the magnet to unlock, this is a brilliant product, I would highly recommend and I will definitely buy them agai

Highly Recommend!!!
I absolutely love these!! They are easy to install and you haven’t gotto screw into anything! The only thing I would suggest, is to put a sticker on the front of your door (we went with little coloured dots sticker) just so you know exactly where to put the magnet when trying to open them, seen as you have to be quite precise with placement! Makes things faster and easier when you need access to a cupboard and your toddler is also around! When they’ve gone to bed its a simple click to deactivate the catch so you can freely get in and out of your cupboards. Highly recommend.
Easy to install
Very easy to install – we got sent a video also to help do this correctly which was a nice touch. very neat, wouldn’t even know they were there just by looking. Unfortunately one of our locks hasn’t stuck properly but easy enough to fix as we will just screw on (cleaning cupboard – most important to be locked) would definitely recommend
Fabulous little locks. You won't be disappointed!
These little beauty’s have made my life so much less stressful. No more emptying draws and cupboards. They were very easy to install and im useless at following instructions! They seem very sturdy and have good hold but I would personally still use some small screws for extra strength. They have holes where you can put screws in but they don’t come with any which would be my only con. also the added bonus of them being hidden so no more ugly plastic things stuck to my furniture
Very good locks, easy to fit and would recommend!
I did a bit of research before opting for these cupboard locks and with good reviews, thought I would give them a go.
I’ll get it out of the way early, I would definitely recommend these to anyone with an inquisitive child or one that’s starting to crawl etc.
They are really easy to install, make sure you read the instructions first but essentially, they come with a cradle in which you place the lock part of the system. You then line that up with the edge of the cupboard and with an adhesive strip, temporarily attach it to the inside of the cupboard. You then peel the back off the sticky pad on the lock mechanism and just close the door, with the sticky pad sticking to the inside edge of the cupboard door. The adhesion is really good but I made sure to apply a little extra pressure to aid the adhesion.
You then use a pencil to make a small mark on the edge of the cupboard which lines up with the cradle part, which acts as a guide for the second part of the mechanism. You then remove the cradle and attach the second part of the lock mechanism to the cupboard with another super sticky pad, lining it up with the pencil mark. The mechanism is now fitted and ideally should be left for 24 hours prior to using it to ensure firm adhesion. There are small round stickers which are clear but have a padlock symbol which you then stick on the outside of the cupboard to identify the location of the lock and aid opening.
The system is supplied with two magnets which can be wall mounted with a small bracket which utilises the same sticky type pad and to open the door, simply place the magnet against the padlock sticker and the door can be opened. If you’ve ever tried to put two magnets together with the same poles facing each other, you’ll know how these work!
Of note, there is a manual override option (if the little one is out of the way etc) where when the door is open, you simply click the lock mechanism to lock it open and the mechanism will then not engage – you just have to remember to re-engage it! This is particularly useful if you’re cooking or putting the shopping away to save you constantly using the magnet!
The one issue I have with these locks is not a design issue but more of a general issue with this type of lock that you need to keep getting the magnet to open the doors, which after a while becomes a bit of a faff! And if your family are anything like mine, the magnet is never put back in the holder so you have to go on a small mission to find the magnet before you can get to the contents of the cupboard!
That being said, I have bought two sets of these locks and overall, think they are great. My little one will stand at the kitchen cupboards and yank on the doors quite robustly with no failure to date.
You then
into and line up with the edge of you
I’d seen these used at my friends house and was a little miffed at the time how I couldn’t get a spoon out of the drawers as they just work so well! Come post lockdown this proved to be a winner as I bought these to lock all the kitchen cupboards in our office to reduce contact. May sound a bit extreme but rather than have to empty everything out of common areas I simply locked all cupboards with these and they really are effective at stopping adults gaining access as well as your little darlings. There are cheaper ones on the market but I picked these as they were recommended by my friend so I knew they worked. A little tricky to fit but the video instructions are easy to follow and I’m very happy with them. When unlocking, move the key downwards until you hear it click. As they are stuck on there’s no damage to your cupboards and will hopefully be taken off when this madness is ove
Very effective
Kept putting off installing these as was difficult to find the time while looking after baby but once I’d done the first one it was so easy to do the rest, took a little time but did a few here and there. They have great strength, the door handles often get pull on but the locks have stuck tight. There was a corner two door cupboard and one draw that I was unable to fit them to because of the set up on the inside of the units, however I’m very pleased I was able to baby proof all the others.
Good but sealing isn't grea
Very well manufactured product and I like the idea, however, my son managed to open the drawers and cupboard around one week after they were installed. The 3M tape sealing isn’t great for those cupboarda and drawers that a child likes to open the most. In fact all the ones on top where he couldn’t reach properly are still in place.
If you want extra sealing it’s better putting some screws. I appreciate that the manufacturer has designed the product for it to be screwed in as well.
Excellent product, quality and affordable.
Absolutely amazing !!!!!! Was a little apprehensive about the product but once opened and watched the install video… WOW! I’ve used cupboard safety locks in the past. Unless you have a 10″ finger to open the lock… Then I seen this product. It actually works. My child has been pulling on the cupboards and hahaha… he can’t get into them! The stickers are strong (3M) so I knew there would be quality. Easy to install, back up holes for screws (if your child is popeye) and this fab ‘Magnet Key’ Takes a while to remember where you left it but honestly, this is an amazing product that I will be suggesting to all my parent friends. Price for the quality, it gets my ***** rating.

Peace of mind - easy to install lock
Easy to install, itruction are clear and there are videos on YT for you to understand better how to mount it in drawers.
The lock is not really small so for crowded small drawers maybe would be difficult to install.
For the rest is perfect. I have now the peace of mind that my baby won’t open any dangerous cabinets of drawers!
Would recommend
The locks are easy to install. They work well to keep little hands out of cupboards. However I have noticed that sometimes after opening a cupboard the lock gets stuck and the cupboard does not lock when closed again- you need to flip the lock to reset it to close again. You must ensure each time you close a cupboard that it remains locked. Overall I am happy with the product and I have purchased a second set already.
Brilliant product & Excellent customer service
This product is really brilliant , extremely easy to install and use. No screws !!
Customer service is amazing and they have this feature where you can keep the lock in “open” position making things easier when you are cooking and need to open the cupboards more often than usual (and when the kids aren’t around).
Just make sure you avoid the door handle area while installing this kit (like the pictures attached)..I made a mistake and now it’s a bit difficult to unlock my undersink cupboard.
Brilliant kit but only works up to 38mm thick doors
Firstly my “but” in the headline isn’t technically a fault. It is clearly stated in the advert but I didn’t notice. My door is just over 40mm thick so it doesn’t work. As advertised it only works up to 38mm.
However, it’s incredible how many drawers and doors you decide to fit these to after you receive them. Initially I was going to use one of the 10 but I’ve used half a pack already.
Fitting them is super easy as they give you a little template/jig to fit them. One part slots easily into the jig then you stick it on and it ensures alignment is spot on.
I liked the fact they came with screw holes in case you decided the sticky pad wasn’t strong enough but trust me it is incredibly strong and you won’t need screws (you’ll struggle to remove a pad with fingers alone and a lot of force).
Since fitting these my toddler has lost interest in the cupboards under the sink etc. However it is annoying for the adults when you go to open a door and forget it’s now locked. The magnet system works perfectly but it can sometimes be fiddly to put it in the right place. You can disable the lock by clicking it into the “always open” position but I guess this defeats the point. Maybe a good feature for grandparents etc who only want babyproofing when the kids are around.
Great quality, easily installed, highly recommend
I screwed mine instead of using the adhesive pads so should I need to move them I have the option to stick or screw. Great product, there is no play in the doors at all once fitted. I fitted mine sideways and the magnet works perfect. The option to keep it unlocked is also a great feature. We all hate opening the safety locks as we keep forgetting they’re on so turning it off when little ones are not around is brilliant. A bit of fiddling about fitting the first one but once you know how it goes then the rest are simple. Some locks require partial opening of the door to then unlock so little ones could trap fingers but with this product the doors are shut solid. Highly recommend this product.

A genuinely clever and functional produc
Great product as described. The mechanism for fitting them is really well thought through, but it is definitely important to read the instructions or look at the instructional video online or you could easily put parts the wrong way around. You have the option of adding screws to the internal latch and personally I would as my 13mth old is pretty strong.
I would also recommend putting the little sticker showing where the lock is positioned on BEFORE you lock the door for the first time, as opposed to trying to find it afterwards like me.
Really very good actually.
I used a whole range of products for our first child and never really found anything that did the job particularly well. For our 2nd child we found these and wow, what a difference. They have really nailed it. They’re simply to install with no need for screws. They are easy to operate (although I would have appreciated a 3rd magnet in the pack) and look the part too, i.e. you can’t see them at all when the door is closed.
We have quite thick doors so I was concerned that these magnets wouldn’t work, but honestly, I shouldn’t have worried, these work perfectly.
Thanks guys, really well designed.
Excellent - Highly Recommended
Fantastic product! Received the product three weeks ago and so far – no faults.
Before you receive the package they email you an “how to” video link (great thoughtful touch) which I viewed and was ready to fit the product as soon as it arrived (at that point I didn’t need the instructions).
Comes in a great package, well presented with additional adhesive pads, in addition to easy to follow instructions (not that I needed them after viewing the video).
These are very discreet, which is aspect I most favour. You cannot tell the cupboard doors/drawers have locks on (I chose not to use the stickers indicating the lock location).
Great product – will see if they withstand the test of time!
