Best Cabinet Lock Out There
By Mom of Three
from Roaming Shores, OOH
About Me Parent of Two or More Children
Comments about KidCo Sliding Cabinet Lock Charcoal:
Best cabinet lock I have tried. Once you see how the teeth on the slide go, it is very easy to use, but just a little too tricky for little ones. I use them on cabinets with sharp items, on snack cupboards and for under the sink in the kitchen.
Impossible to open

About Me Grandparent
I had a very difficult time getting this open, so I am returning them. Yes I am a grandmother but I do not have problems with strength in my hands
Needs lubrication
By Living like an oval

These are great they just need a little lubrication. I used olive oil on the teeth and we are able to open and close them with ease.
Can't be opened by adults either!

About Me First Time Parent
I cannot open this lock myself (to install it). I opened the packaging for two of them, just in case the first one was defective. The lock just won't open. I am glad I didn't get it open and on a cabinet, because I'm pretty sure I'd never get it off again! I can see how the design is supposed to work, but it seems cheap and poorly constructed and just doesn't work.
Worked well
By kate

These were great for our cabinets that are widely spaced.
didn't work for us
By jdow
from long island, NY
The knobs were too thick for the clamps to fit around. I tried to use this in another room and the knobs were too far apart. I bought three of them and can't find a use for even one!
Great product
By Adoption Mom
from Indiana
We have these locks on our Bathroom and kitchen cabinets and they are child proof however not adult proof! They are the first locks that are easy to apply and remvove in order to get into your cabinets a must for those cabinets that need to be locked but also used daily!
Would not recommend

This item scratched up the wood on our entertainment center. I would not purchase again.

Best I've used so far
By Jennifer
from Wisconsin
We have a similar lock on another cabinet and that one takes two hands to get in to. This one is the best because of the simple design and you can easily get it open with one hand if necessary.
it works too well
By momof 1
from Cranberry Twp, PA
Once they were in place we could not get them back off. Not for us.
finally!
By maria

I finally found something for my bathroom cabinets! I tried everything and nothing would fit because the knobs were so close together. If you are having this issue This will be perfect for you.
Does What it Says
By B.L. Froman
from Oregon
Bought a couple of these as my 2nd child is at the 'get into everything' stage. I'd bought some with my 1st and really loved them. I can't say the same this time. The design has changed and these are much harder to unlock, for placed that I don't get into that often they're great. For locking the cabinets under the kitchen sink, I can't do it. You need two hands to unlock them and they can be tricky. I can't say I'm overly happy with the purchase.
not good for frequently-used cabinets
By momtoJLN
from Boston, MA
The cabinet we got this for has our kitchen trash inside, so we use it really frequently. The lock is hard to get open so we aren't using it - too much of a pain
Serves its purpose...
By Sheather
from Iowa City, IA
I like the fact that it's long enough to latch cabinet handles that are 6" apart but it's a little difficult to open. It slides apart and needs to be put back together every time I take it off the cabinet. This probably wouldn't be a problem with handles that were closer together.
Like it a lot
By Multi tasking Momma
from Marlboro NJ
Love this one b/c its easy to use and comes in a color other than white.
