Safety 1st Safety Latches |
||||||||||||||

I have a Safety 1st Lever Handle Lock on the door leading to a flight of stairs to the basement. I have a two-year-old and a one-year-old. My three-year-old nephew was visiting and wanted to go down to the basement. I told him "no" and felt confident the Lever Handle Lock would prevent him from opening the door. Unfortunely, I was wrong. My three-year-old nephew was able to open the door easily and my one-year-old son tumbled down the stairs. Luckily, nothing happened to him. There were about 10 steps in all. He could have broken his neck, his leg, he could have died because the Safety 1st Lever Handle Lock did not work. Sariah of Yuma AZ (7/31/03):
I had put the latches in all of the kitchen cabinets. My daughter, who is two, is unable to open the doors but my son ended up finding out how to. When I talked to Safety 1st all they asked is if he was all right and forwarded me to the technical department. Let me tell you not a lot of help. I am very discouraged over all that happened. If the product was designed a diffrent way the lip and the point would not have caught my son's tooth and yanked it out. My son now has to go see a specialist in Phoenix to make sure that everything is good and have a spacer put in. If he dosen't have a false tooth put in he will also suffer from eating problems being that is it one of the biting teeth. I still am unable to deal with all that took place with him. These latches may have been included in a recall a few years ago. Sariah should check on that and she should also consult a personal injury attorney. She might be able to recover her son's dental expenses. Report Your Experience
