Editorial Review:
Harnessing the invisible power of magnets, this Tot Lok starter set provides an effective way to keep your baby or toddler from opening cabinet doors and drawers. The set comes with two latches that can be installed on the inside of doors and drawers that measure between 0.5 inch thick to over 1.5 inches thick, along with one magnetic key that will open either latch when it is placed against the front of the door where the latches are mounted. Each latch is also equipped with a lever that can be flipped to disengage the lock so you can use the door or drawer normally. The system works well and has the added advantage of being completely hidden from view, but it requires that parents keep the key in a safe place where it won't be misplaced or lost. The Tot Lok starter set comes with mounting instructions and a template to aid in installation. --Chris Burns

Rating:  - Difficult to install, don't use on beveled/paneled cabinets!
As previous reviewers have stated, these locks are very difficult to install. Mine did come with a drill bit stop, but I had to go buy the right bit for the drill. Then the stop did not work, it was too loose on the bit, even though we bought the size suggested in the instructions. This resulted in drilling through one cabinet door. Then on the second door, despite being very careful, my husband drilled through even with the stop on the bit. After some measuring, we came to the realization that the ... Read More
Rating:  - The Amazing Tot Lok!
This is a wonderful product! I tried several brands of the traditional plastic cupboard toddler locks and they kept breaking or the cupboard could still be pulled open. Tot lok is strong and unopenable without the key. Plus, it does not compromise the look of my cupboards either. The instructions are easy to follow for proper installation. I can't say enough about this great product! Highly reccommended!
Rating: - Worth the trouble
I installed these on my "under the sink" cabinet where I keep my household cleaners. My daughter is now old enough to open the other cabinet locks, which is fine in respect to the pots and pans, but I defintely don't want her getting into anything dangerous. I love these locks because I feel sure that she cannot open them since we keep the magnet up high and the lock is very strong. They lock automatically when you close the door, so you don't have to worry about forgetting to do it. They are also ... Read More
Rating:  - annoyed
Loved the idea of a magnetic lock system, but the design is not robust enough. I am fairly handy but installation was frustrating. I tried no less than 3 times very carefully aligning the provided template, drilling, carefully tightening all the screws only to find that the lock mechanism did not engage perfectly and the door popped open with a little pull. The magnet part worked fine with the extension, that was not the problem. Adjusting the catch forward and back, I could not get the latch part ... Read More
Rating: - works well with correct installation
My husband and I installed these and experienced the same problem as the previous reviewer. The magnet seemed too weak to work well. But the set includes extensions. The hole needs to be drilled deep enough so that the magnet comes close to the front of the cabinet door. (I suggest putting a piece of masking tape on the drill bit, so that you can make the hole deep enough without going through the cabinet door.) When the hole is deep enough & the extension used, it works well. And there's even a ... Read More
