Only unlocks with powerful magnetic key Fits most cabinets and drawers Locks install inside cabinet or drawer, out of sight of children and guests Powerful magnetic key opens lock Includes: 8 locks and 1 key Review: Going back for thirds - These locks are great. They provide all the security of other child proofing systems with some advantages. The installation may be a little more difficult then other childproof systems, but with the proper tools I've installed a pack of 8 of these two different times dealing with different cabinet configurations in 20-30 minutes. No childproof system is perfect and you should be aware that your kids are going to get into the drawers or cupboards at some point. With that said, these have kept our son out of the any drawers 99.99% of the time. With that security you also get a fail proof system for keeping the kids out. They have to have a key. There is no figuring these locks out unless they have access to the key. This is a nice advantage over many other systems. You can also leave these locks unlocked. This is great is you have guests, are cooking or doing household chores. Our son has access to the whole house and it's nice when we have guest to simply make sure their door is closed and unlock all the drawers in their room. Same thing for cooking or cleaning the house when he's asleep or not around. With those advantages come two big disadvantages. You have to remember to keep them locked/unlocked depending on the situation and you have to keep the key out of the little one's reach. So far these have been easy, but I can imagine when he's a little older and we have another little one running around we could easily find the key in the kids possession with multiple doors unlocked. As for the install complaints. I thought these were pretty easy to install. You will make this so much easier if you have a drill and a properly sized drill bit. I read a review wishing these were self taping screws. Just get a drill and a drill bit and you're problem are solved. The other issue with install is location and a secure fit. On many of our drawers I've had to stall these either off center of even on the side of the drawer to provide enough clearance. It doesn't really matter where you install them on the drawer or cabinet. Lastly, many times I've need to slightly raise/lower the lock and move in/out the latch slightly to get the right fit. This takes a few seconds of slight loosening the screws, moving the piece and retighting until everything works correctly. Overall I am very happy with these locks and have order them three times to secure everything in the house as the little one has shown us his growth by finding new and interesting places we hadn't considered he could reach previously. Review: Worth the price - I'm a big fan of this lock system. My main issue is the price, but considering what you get I think it's worth it. At first, I went to a local store and got the usual cabinet locks that you push down after opening the door slightly. I was trying to save money, and these were something like 20 latches for $8. Well, I stopped installing them after the first one because I hated it so much. It's flimsy and I'm sure it'll break, especially because the door can open about 4" before it catches! That surprised me. I figured it would open about 2" at most so I could stick my finger in there and clear the latch, but no, my son could stick his entire arm and shoulder into the cabinet and reach a LOT of stuff. So I bit the bullet and bought my first kit of Safety 1st magnetic locks and I'm glad I did. Every complaint I had about the traditional cabinet latches was eliminated by these locks. I wouldn't say their construction is perfect, but it's just fine for the purpose. I love that the door can't open more than a couple mm, which should help prolong the life of the locks because my toddler isn't enjoying the experience of opening and slamming the door. I also LOVE the ability to disable the locks easily. When we put our son down and I'm planning on doing a lot in the kitchen, I'll unlock the most-used doors and drawers, and I'm not slowed down by having to use a key. It's great! Installing the locks is pretty easy, but you'll need tools like a drill. If your cabinets have a fairly large inset panel, you might have some trouble installing these locks, especially if your cabinet doors also overlap the opening significantly. I only had that problem a couple of times and worked around it by finding a better placement for the locks. After the first few installs, I found I stopped needing the [excellent] templates for the most part, and could figure it out on my own. The drawers were the trickiest and most difficult, but I eventually got those done too. I can't say enough great things about these locks. Because of our floorplan, we have no way to keep our toddler out of the kitchen, and I wouldn't want to anyway. It's nice to not have to worry about him getting into every single cabinet. NOTE: do not buy the single key. It currently goes for $9 which is absurd. If you need an extra key, buy some strong rare earth magnets for your fridge, and glue one to some sort of handle. The keys are nothing more than a magnet encased in plastic. ## Features - Keep cabinets & drawers off limits - Peace of mind for parents while children are exploring in the home. - Toddler tested.

Is it really more convenient than the latch** A: I bough my set of 8 from an orange big box store. They had extra keys for sale. One commenter here stated he/she glued a rare earth magnet ( probably neodymium) to a bracelet and used that. This metal/magnet is widely available on line. Ounce for ounce, they are MUCH stronger than an ordinary magnet. But be aware of the magnets' polarity. Mine are circular, presumably one side is the north magnetic end, the other side, the south magnetic end. Since the magnet inside the latch is fixed in position, one side of your bracelet will work; the other won't. Test it before you glue. **Q: Does anyone have a picture of what these look like installed?** A: I found this YouTube video showing how they work, once installed. Looks cool! I'm totally getting some of these things. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYz0jnla_QI **Q: How thick of cabinets/drawers will these work on?** A: Most brand locks work for 0.75-1.25" thick. but i have locks and work for 2 inches thick door. you can check here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077Q7VRRG/ ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Going back for thirds *by S***S on May 29, 2014* These locks are great.

It's the only system that truly stops a child (or animal) from getting into a cabinet unless they have access to the key. Of course, if you leave the key (or a magnet) in a place where they can get it, access is a snap! So, my wife and I installed brand new kitchen cabinets, and we had, at the time (this was about a year ago), an 18 month old. He was starting to get curious about the cabinets as he got more mobile. We wanted to secure the cabinets in a way that would: 1) Not be noticeable from the outside 2) Could not be easily defeated by a child 3) Could be turned on and off as needed Enter this system. I checked a lot of them out, and this got great reviews, though the install was a little more challenging. Ordered a set (and, later, a 2nd set) to outfit the kitchen. I waited until my 18 month old was not around (think my wife took him to the park) and started on a cabinet. Since I care about my brand new cabinets, I was careful. Measure. Measure again, and mark the holes. Solid wood cabinets, so I pre-drilled a hole, and then screwed in the top bracket. Measured and checked the latch system, and then marked, pre-drilled, and screwed in the latch. Make sure you test the system right away to ensure a clean lock/unlock. It's pretty solid. Yes, if you pull really hard it is possible to pull a cabinet open, but it does take some effort. I like the fact that, because the lock is flush (if you install well), when the cabinet is closed and locked, there is no give - that makes a child lose interest in trying to open, because is does not do anything (in contrast to the ones where you open a little, push down, and then fully open). The "key" is just a magnet that you put in the [close] vicinity of the lock on the outside of the cabinet. I believe any decently powerful magnet would work, but these are coated in plastic and won't scratch your nice cabinets. I ordered the 8 lock/1 key system, which only gives you one key, obviously. Recommend getting a 2nd key since, if you lose it, you are stuck for a while. We put a hook high up in one of the upper cabinet doors, and hang the key from there, so we alwyas know where it is (and the little dude can't get it!) I later ordered a 2nd system to complete my kitchen, and had 3 leftover. So I took those and intalled them in on the glass doors in my family room entertainment system, so now my son can't touch the receiver buttons (if he did that, he's make sure we never heard sound again), pop out a DVD, or turn the cable box off. Keeping him out of those doors was a great use for the leftover locks, and I keep the key that came with that set hidded behind a statue in the bookcase above the doors. I love the fact that you can easily lock/unlock the system. We regularly leave one cabinet (the garbage/recycling drawer) unlocked, as we use it a lot, and when not cooking. However, our son goes through periods of curiosity about that spot. So, when he shows interest in doing something he should not in trash can, we just lock it. He quickly loses interest and goes away, and we can unlock for later use. This is a well designed, high quality product. We have been using them for over a year and (knock on wood) not lost a key. We've had no problems with them during this time. If you want a discrete system that enables you to securely lock the cabinets, and you are not prone to losing thngs (like the required key), I highly recommend this. It may cost a little more, but you will be satisfied with what you get. ## Frequently Bought Together - Safety 1st Magnetic Locking System (1 Key and 8 Locks) - Safety 1st Magnetic Locking System Key - Baby Proofing Magnetic Cabinet Locks Child Proof Extra Magnet (5 Pack) Universal Replacement Keys for Magnetic Locking System - Baby Safety Latch for Drawers and Cabinet - 5 Key Holders Included --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1136877-safety-1st-magnetic-locking-system-1-key-and-8-locks](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1136877-safety-1st-magnetic-locking-system-1-key-and-8-locks) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-11-02*
