recommend your cabinet & drawer baby-locks
we are in need of baby proofing before DD figure she can open the cabinets

We use Tot locks. They are alittle expensive but they are magnets that you put on the inside of the cabinets and you can't see them.

You have to drill those right? I think my DH would rather Kailey play with the pots than drill into the cabinets

Re: recommend your cabinet & drawer baby-locks
We bought two kinds - the ones you drill and the ones that hold the pulls tightly together (KWIM?) I have to tell you that I HATE the ones that hold the pulls together. Two of them broke and I do not like being able to see them.
The ones you drill only took DH a couple of minutes to finish all the cabinets.

Re: recommend your cabinet & drawer baby-locks
I hate being able to see them too. Maybe I can convince DH to do 1 and see if she likes it 
We bought one that goes around the 2 knobs of cabinets like and clamp.....And we almost couldn't get it off.
The funny part was that the packaging said, "to use until child figures out." Great, so we might be using them for 30+ years

Love these, nice thing is that you can turn them on and off...so when DC is older you can turn them off but then if you have another child you can turn them on again. And unlike all other likes, my DS hasnt broken them or figured them out.
We have them, ILs and BIL all have them! Totally worth it!
ETA: They make adhesive ones similar but I am not sure how good they are.

Re: recommend your cabinet & drawer baby-locks
What type of door handles/knobs/pulls do you have? If you can't tie the handles together on the outside, you really need to drill holes. I wouldn't trust the adhesive ones, especially for cabinets with chemicals in them.

Re: recommend your cabinet & drawer baby-locks
You can get the magnet locks at BRU. We have them (you dont have to drill them in b/c they come w/double sticky tape but you can drill them if u want). I find the magnets to be a PITA, and we only have them under the sink for the garbage & cleaning supplies. The other cabinets I use the lever lock type ones...but those drill in. I like those better and will be putting them on the rest of my kitchen drawers too. I was weary about drilling into the cabinets but the holes are all on the insides so even if we took them out its not like you'd see them.
