Jool Baby Door Knob Safety Covers (4-Pack)

Full Review

The day our son figured out how to open doors was genuinely terrifying. He waltzed out the front door while we were in the kitchen. Just opened it and went outside. He was maybe 20 months old. We ordered these door knob covers that same hour. They snap over standard round door knobs and create a smooth outer shell that spins freely when small hands try to grip it. Adults just squeeze the sides and turn normally. Kids under 3 or so don't have the hand strength or coordination to squeeze and turn at the same time. We put them on the front door, the back door, the bathroom, and the basement door. Problem solved overnight. They fit most standard round knobs, but they won't work on lever-style handles (you'll need lever locks for those). The plastic is durable enough that they survived daily attempts by our very determined toddler without cracking or breaking. They do look a little silly, but that's a minor trade-off for not having your toddler let himself out of the house. Installation is literally just snapping them on. No tools, no adhesive, nothing to damage the door. They pop right off when you don't need them anymore. Get the 4-pack because you'll need them on multiple doors. Trust me on this one.
