Default warning worth repeating

As a father of 8 (one is 3, two are infants), this kind of stuff scares
the daylights out of me. In addition to the slow-close hinges, the
bottom of the trunk or chest needs to have holes or some other way for
air to circulate. Maybe it's a good idea for the lid to have
stand-offs or something to keep a 1/2" gap between the box and the lid
at all times.

Man, how did humanity ever survive 15 centuries of chests with locking lids?
