Keeping 2 year old from going over the side
"Greg" wrote in message ... We are getting ready to move into our new house. But my wife is worried that our youngest might try to climb over the railing looking down into the entry way. I'm posting a couple of pictures of it. Maybe someone could come up with a good idea on how to prevent this without covering up the railing. I was thinking just a sheet of plexiglass. With 3 holes drilled into each side and attach it to the frame of the opening? Hook a car battery up to it. He'll only touch it once...... ;-] No, the plexiglass seems like a good idea Either that or put a tall piece of fueniture in front of it. You can always move it when he gets older and wiser..... |

The other option is to find some other decorative railing and put it above the existing one. |
