How I’m Keeping My Family Safe: Child Locks

April 1, 2020

Out of our 6 kids, we have a couple little ones who have become escape artists! Hunter and Asher have been caught red handed trying to bust out of the house a few times and it scared me so much! We tried a product that I grabbed at the store and it lasted about a week before it broke. Total fail. I knew I needed a better option and discovered The Door Guardian! I finally feel like our family is safe and secure! Something that is really important right now with everything going on in the world.

The Door Guardian was easy to install. Ben got it up in minutes while I held a newborn and “supervised” haha.
The previous child lock we tried was such a hassle to use- and we weren’t sure if it would even work properly. I love how much easier this one is for me. What I loved about The Door Guardian products was the variety of different types of locks they had. The ones I went with were their newest, the Door Guardian Outswinging and Inswinging Door Locks. Knowing that they’d fit all doors made me feel comfortable knowing I wouldn’t get home with the lock only to find out that it doesn’t fit. With the option to use their 3M VHB Tape, it meant we wouldn’t have to worry about a messy install. Even if we hadn’t, you don’t need to worry about ruining your doors and door frames installing these.

 It was important to me that our older kids were able to easily use the door lock in case of emergency. I wanted to know that we had something that could easily keep them safe and sound. My boys are super social and would open the door if they saw anyone playing outside –  so now I feel so much peace knowing there is that child lock to keep them safe inside.


Thank you to The Door Guardian for sponsoring today’s post!

As mamas we worry about a lot, why not take one thing off your plate? Grateful for the peace of mind The Door Guardian gives me!
