A child safety lock is a device designed to keep children away from potentially dangerous areas or items, thereby enhancing home safety and reducing the risk of accidents and injuries. These locks help protect children by securing harmful substances or objects.
The main types of child safety locks include magnetic cabinet locks, cord cabinet locks, sliding cabinet locks, and others. Magnetic cabinet locks utilize a magnetic catch and metal plate to securely fasten doors or drawers, preventing access by curious children and ensuring their safety. These locks are available through various distribution channels, including both offline and online platforms, and are used in a range of applications such as household settings, automobiles, and more.
