The Dreambaby Safety Catches 6 Pack is a set of internal cabinet and drawer catches designed to make it harder for little hands to reach into cupboards and drawers that might hold harmful items — cleaning products, medicines, sharp utensils and the like. Fitted inside the cabinet or drawer, they stay hidden from view while still giving you quick, one-handed access as an adult.
Each catch is strong and straightforward to install, making it a practical option if you're working through the kitchen, bathroom or storage areas as your baby starts to crawl, pull up and explore. This is a six-pack, so you can cover several problem spots in one go, and Dreambaby Safety Catches are also available in packs of two and twelve if you need a different quantity.
How it works
- Internal fitting: The catch mounts inside the cabinet or drawer, so it's out of sight and out of reach once the door or drawer is closed.
- Automatic locking: When you close the door or drawer, the catch engages on its own — there's no separate step to remember to re-lock it.
- Adult-quick release: To open, you pull the door or drawer out slightly and press down on the hook, which releases the catch.
Where you can use them
The catches suit the top or side of most cabinets, and they work on top drawers too. They can also be used on lower drawers where there's a top divider for the catch to be fitted to. Because fit depends on your specific cabinetry, it's worth checking your drawer and cupboard construction before installing.
Each catch measures approximately 3.5" long x 1" wide x 0.5" high.
Best for
The Dreambaby Safety Catches are a good option for parents who:
- Want to limit a curious child's access to cupboards and drawers holding hazardous items
- Prefer a catch that hides inside the cabinet rather than sitting on the exterior
- Like a mechanism that locks automatically on closing and opens quickly for adults
- Need to fit out several cabinets and drawers at once
They may not suit every situation if your drawers have no top divider to fasten to, or if your cabinet surface or construction doesn't allow a secure internal fitting.
A note on safety
Catches like these are designed to make it more difficult for children to open cupboards and drawers, but no device makes a home childproof. Adult supervision and storing genuinely dangerous items out of reach remain the most important safeguards. Check the catches regularly to make sure they're still holding firmly, and re-engage them every time.
