As grandparents, my wife and I do frequent toddler babysitting.

The kitchen cabinets, drawers, and other compartments are very
tempting for our grand-daughter to investigate. We are looking for
a way to keep this closed and inaccessible to a young child, while
still allowing adults to easily open and close the doors and
drawers.

Unlike 30 years ago when our own children were toddlers, we now
have very high quality custom cabinetry and drawers, and do NOT
want to drill or attach any fasteners which deface or damage the
cabinets / doors. The fasteners were used 30 years ago required
drilling holes into both the doors and the cabinets in order to
attach the plastic latches. This is NOT an option for our current
cabinets.

Does anybody know of any device or fastener or method which
provides a secure and reliable latch to children, easy access to
adults, and easy removal without leaving any permanent damage to
the custom cabinetry?

Thanks in advance for your assistance and suggestions.

Here's a novel concept. You claim to be babysitting, SO DO IT! Don't
just turn the brat loose while you doze off in the rocker. You're
way too senile to take on responsibility of watching lil ones.
Those kids should be taken from the parents, for letting you watch
them. Then, the parents should be sterilized, they're also too
irresponsible for having kids.

Just worry about changing your own damn diaper!


Jimbo, did you have too much beer?

Actually, it sounds like too little brains. His solution to reinforcing
a cabinet latch is to sterilize people. A sheer touch of genius at work
here.
