about this item
Curious kids try to get into anything and everything, but the Safety 1st OutSmart Flex Lock helps you keep them out with the first ever decoy button. Your child will think that the decoy button opens the lock, but pushing it has no effect. You’ll know that the flexible surface hides the actual secret to opening the lock.
This cabinet lock prevents your little explorer from getting into side-by-side cabinets and can be used on cabinets with either knobs or handle pulls. It installs easily with no drilling required. The adjustable straps let you get a customized fit for cabinets with hardware up to 8 inches apart. For periods of non-use, this cabinet lock hangs conveniently out of the way, but stays close for when it’s needed again.

reviewer received free item
Before I received a free sample of this lock in exchange for writing a review I had never seen this style of cabinet lock and I am surprised by how much I like it. I was unsure how to install it at first but the directions were clear and had helpful illustrations so it only took a minute or two. Sin... see moreof Heather O's review

These did not work for me. Reading is fundamental. My knobs are less than 2 inches apart so it was very difficult to open my doors. So much so that my husband cut it off in frustration. I'll try something else. These work for knobs at least 3 inches apart. see moreof Talisa's review
Wide, Easy to Use

The knobs on our cabinets under the sink are farther apart than average, so most other locks don't fit. The adjustable width of this lock works perfectly! It's easy to install and easy to open/close. see moreof jmewing18's review

It's easy to use and amusing to watch my toddler (and any other unknowing adults) try to open it using the fake button. see moreof JackieL's review

Using and removing locks
(would recommend)4 out of 5 stars
verified purchaser
Locks were easy to install and then use (once you figured out the lock opened best when level with the floor). They were difficult to remove however. They did an excellent job keeping little hands out of the cabinets. I would recommend for short term usage, as we did for our grandson when we did not... see moreof Gwenn's review

Fake button is genius
(would recommend)5 out of 5 stars
verified purchaser
This is the best lock I've found that doesn't have to be permanently installed. The fake release button really works and a toddler would have to be VERY savvy to figure out the secret to opening the lock. One reviewer said that after attaching the lock she could still open her doors wide enough to b... see moreof MeMaw in Louisiana's review
Best cabinet lock
(would recommend)5 out of 5 stars
verified purchaser
My kids are 5 and almost 2. Over the years we have used many different kinds of child locks for our cabinets, and the Safety First Outsmart series are by far the best. My toddler has been able to break just about every lock out there except this brand. This particular lock, the Flex lock, even helps... see moreof DBO's review
