Choosing cabinet locks
Cabinet locks can help restrict access to cupboards, but they are not a substitute for safe storage. Keep medicines, cleaning chemicals and sharp objects securely stored and out of children’s reach.
What to check before buying
- Check the lock type suits your cupboard or drawer.
- Follow the fitting instructions and test the lock regularly.
- Store hazardous products high up and locked away where appropriate.
