What Is Good To Eat In The Refrigerator???? By Geralyn Hydock on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
Your house can never be safe enough when there are grandchildren around. My little grandson, Cooper, loves to go into GG's refrigerator and help himself. I do not mind but there are things like hot sauce, pepper jack cheese, wine, etc. which I would not want him to get into. Having had to get him out of the fridge several times, prompted me to buy this safety lock. It works like magic!
This lock can be used on refrigerators as well as on freezers. It is constructed out of plastic and uses a latch and hook to secure the doors from young children. This sturdy device also protects the dumping of liquids, etc. in the fridge. Installation is very easy, anyone can do it. All one has to do is apply the latch to the side or top for double doors and freezers. You then remove the red liner from the hook and allow the adhesive to set overnight. Voila, you're done!
It is not difficult to open your refrigerator either as all you have to do is press inward on the door handle and release the flexible latch over hook. The latch resets automatically when the door closes. One can easily remove the lock if you wish to do so. All you do is gently pry it off and use either oil or goo gone to remove any leftover adhesive. You can purchase the lock in either clear or white.
What I like most about the lock is the fact that you do not have to do anything in order to lock the door as it automatically locks when you close the door. It is also easy to open the door up with only one hand. This guard does and excellent job and keeping grandchildren out of the refrigerator. We have been very pleased with it. I definitely recommend this product to frustrated parents and grandparents who have tried to keep their kids out of the fridge!

Geri I applaud you for bring this important safety product to our attention. This is great for protecting small children or even folks with Alzheimers. This is truly a very helpful product.
This is a great product. I never thought to get a lock for my refridgerator to keep my little one out, but it's not a bad idea, heck it isn't a bad idea if you are on a diet...haha!
My Mother told us years back of these kids climbed into a freezer and could not get out, needless to say they passed away :( Freezers, refridgerators, everything needs a safety device if kids are around.
This sounds like it could be a very sueful product if you have kids around. I am always trying to get my kid to eat more!
Wow, I seriously need one of these! I don't mind my daughter getting in the fridge, but she doesn't always remember to close it...:/ Thanks for sharing your experience with this!
Never thought about the dangers in a frig but you are right. This is great information for everyone. Thanks
This sounds like a very important AND PRACTICAL product. Some of the safety things are so annoying that no one uses them, and the result is that you might as well not have them at all. I'll have to keep my eyes open to see what these look like.
This sounds like an awesome product which I will have to try. Thanks for sharing this detailed information.
Gee I could use this kind of fridge with four children , it seems the door is never closed.
Does it work on Husbands too?? Great to know about this, I'm sure it's not too long before my 2-year old realizes he can help himself. Yikes!
