Great but there is MAJOR DESIGN FLAW
on July 1, 2024
Posted by: FrustratedMom
At first I loved this product, but then I realized that if you do not push the lever all the way down, which is easy to do, then it's possible to push it back up without pushing on the side buttons - my 3 year old thinks it's fun to do. The unfortunate result is that I've gotten locked in a room more than once. Luckily my kids have been with me and I have family nearby who could come to the rescue. But there should be ZERO possibility for the lever to be moved the buttons being pushed. MAJOR DESIGN FLAW AND SAFETY ISSUE. SAFETY LAST.

Impossible to remove from painted doors
on July 1, 2024
Posted by: Anonymous
These locks are on almost every door of the home we bought. They are near impossible to remove without damaging the paint on the door. The black adhesive does not come off cleanly, even while using a hair dryer and fishing line. Have been trying to get the remaining adhesive off of the door, off and on, for the past two days. We have not yet completely removed the adhesive on the first door, and we still have six more doors to do. Going to buy some Goo Gone and hope it works!

Great product!

This product is very useful. Was extremely easy to install and is simple for an adult to use....keyword being adult! My toddler is constantly pressing the decoy button and has not figured out the actual way to open the door. The hinge hides the actual button needed to press. Will be purchasing more!

Very Strong, Tricky Temoval

Install Very easy to install. You just peel the backing and stick it on. It was a bit off on our door because the design of our door isn't completely flat but the little bit that wasn't adhesed to anything didn't make a difference. Use It was easy for most people in our house to use. My husband and I had no issues with locking/unlocking. My parents had a harder time. Like other people mentioned, you can lock it without pressing the buttons, so that was an issue once our son was a bit older. During a party, an older guest got locked in the bathroom because he put the lock in place while the door was open and then couldn't pull the lever down when he tried to come out. Removal You'll have to use some hacks. It was easy enough once I used some tricks. I used fishing line to "floss" between the door and the lock. Once the lock was off, the black adhesive backing stayed. I used a blow dryer to soften the adhesive and started at a corner to peel slowly until it was all off. I kept the heat on the entire time so just be careful.

Fantastic door lock for sneaky toddlers
on July 1, 2024
Posted by: Anonymous
This product is fantastic for keeping our sneaky 3yr old from secretly escaping into the backyard. Our front door is sticky and heavy, plus it has a deadbolt but our backdoor can be easily opened by our little backyard runaway. This lock took 2 seconds to install and she has not figured out how to open it. The fake button on the bottom is so smart, our toddler constantly presses it!

Not recommended for wood doors
on July 1, 2024

Very difficult to remove. Had to use a heat gun and chemicals to get it off. Ultimately, we ruined our door. Have to take it off to re-stain. This would work great on plastic or steal doors, but I think you would still have a tough time removing the black adhesive from the safety lock. It's a chore for sure...
