Slide-In Old-School Lock

Works great. I had bought OTC locks but my handles were too far apart so the were retuned. I found these extra long locks on Amazon and they are perfect. They keep my grandson out and they are easy enough for this adult to use easily.

I have six cats, and one of them has sneakily figured out how to open the lower cabinets under the kitchen sink and get into the trash can I keep in there, often scattering trash all over the floor while searching for something interesting. I had been using duct tape to keep both cabinets closed but didn't like this, so thought I would try this babyproofing idea. I looked at several choices online and chose this one because it looked simple and didn't have any adhesives as some of the other choices did. It was easy to put on and easy to get off, and now my cat won't be able to get in there anymore. Great idea for cats or babies!

These locking horseshoe cabinet locks are fantastic where they will work. The concept is simple: slip the bar on two cabinet door locks through the horseshoe, attach and tighten the middle lock, and voila! Neither cabinet door can open unless the lock is removed, since the handles swing outward and the lock limits the handle bar's ability to move inside the horseshoe. The concept is simple and effectively implemented here. However, there are some drawbacks and considerations: 1) You need two cabinet doors that swing outward from each other to utilize these. These will not work on drawers or single cabinet doors. If you need to lock drawers, single cabinet doors, or other doors where a horseshoe lock cannot work, consider Munchkin's Xtraguard locks for a no-hardware solution. 2) The plastic has two weak points. If you pull hard on the lock, you can strip the "hooks" that lock into the teeth inside the locking mechanism. Also, if your cabinet handles are far apart, the lock is susceptible to prying the horseshoe "legs" apart until they break. This lock is most effective on cabinet doors up to 3" together, but it will work up to ~4.75". Apart from these issues (which are minor), the locks do what they do well. These are a good, inexpensive child- and dogproofing solution where they can be used.

I only ordered one set because I wasn’t sure they’d slide through my cabinet handles, but they are perfect! They fit, hold securely, and slide off simply if you know the “secret.” Luckily, the cat doesn’t know the secret even though she is smart enough to open unlatched cabinets. Lol

I loved the cabinet locks i bought they are very easy to install and kids cannot open them. I have a baby gate for my kitchen for my 1 year old but there are times when she still gets through and we keep cleaning products and bleach under the sink. That cabinet was always the first one she would run to. Now i can be at ease knowing she cannot get into the cleaning products and that she is safe. It even works for my 7 year old so its a good feeling knowing they are both locked out of harmful products. These are a great product that are reasonably priced. I got them right away and even got emails from the company making sure everything was ok. I told them how much i loved their products and few days later another package showed up and they sent me more safety products for free. This is a great company with great products. A small business that really cares about their customers and safety of kids.

Easy to put on and keeps the little ones from getting into trouble.

Good quality and hard enough to manipulate that sometimes I can’t get in.

Works well on earth you get the sliders back on. The hard plastic makes it hard to align with the arms

Easy to use as long as you don’t slide the lock tight against the cupboard handle and make sure the tabs to unlock face out - away from cupboard door. Leave enough room to slide your index finger over the end of the lock. Squeeze the locking tabs together with your middle finger and your thumb then pull the lock off with your index finger. I was concerned I would have difficulty after reading the review of another senior citizen who stated it was difficult to use for older people. I had difficulty too when I tried to squeeze and slide off using just 2 fingers. Hope this helps.

When I look at reviews the first thing I look at is how easy it is to use. This product is very simple, easy to use and works great. I have the 3m sticker locks and am now having issues getting them off.

Cheap plastic. Cracks very easily. Our previous ones which have been in use for 4 years are still good. I’d look for a different one if I have to buy again.
