The Dreambaby Mini Multi-Purpose Latches (2 Pack) are compact adhesive latches designed to add a simple layer of protection to cupboards and cabinets around your home. Because they stick on rather than screw in, they install with no tools, no screws and no drilling — which makes them a practical option if you'd rather not put holes in your furniture or you're working around a home you'd like to keep unmarked.
Each latch uses a super-strength adhesive backing that can be applied to most surfaces, including glass and mirrors, laminated furniture, varnished wood, timber veneer and metal. That surface range is where these latches earn their "multi-purpose" name: you can use them in the kitchen, bathroom, laundry, garage and living areas to help keep little ones away from the contents of a cupboard, while also protecting your valuables. As with any babyproofing device, they're one layer of protection rather than a substitute for adult supervision — they reduce easy access to a cabinet, they don't make a home childproof.
How it works
- Adhesive mounting: A super-strength adhesive disc holds the latch in place, so there's no hardware to fit and no permanent marks from screws or drilling.
- Strap-and-disc latch: The strap engages against the disc to hold a door or cupboard shut, and releases when an adult gently pulls the strap off the disc.
- Adult-friendly release: To reopen, you pull the strap off the disc; to re-secure, you simply replace it back into the locked position — quick enough that it's easy to re-engage every time.
How to use
- Choose a clean, dry, compatible surface (glass, mirror, laminate, varnished wood, timber veneer or metal).
- Apply the adhesive backing firmly to position the latch on the cupboard or cabinet.
- To open, gently pull the strap off the disc; to relock, replace the strap into the secure position.
Best for
The Dreambaby Mini Multi-Purpose Latches are a great option for parents who:
- Want a tool-free, no-drill way to secure cupboards and cabinets
- Need something that works across different surfaces like glass, laminate, wood and metal
- Prefer a compact, discreet latch that isn't visually bulky
They may not be the best fit if you:
- Need a hardware-mounted solution for a high-consequence location
- Have surfaces that are dusty, textured or otherwise unsuitable for adhesive backing
Pandylane Pro Tip: Adhesive latches rely on a clean, compatible surface and a proper bond to hold well, so wipe the area down before fitting and give the adhesive time to set before you put it to the test. It's also worth checking the bond from time to time and re-securing the strap after every use.
