The Masked Cabinet Crawler!

Are there handles on the doors? Only thing I can think of is the thing that slides over the handles and holds them closed but that only works on the double doors.

I know you can get the adhesive kind of cabinet locks. I was recently searching for one for my lazy susan, and it is adhesive, but I saw regular cabinet locks that are adhesive while I was looking. Here's a link:

Depending on what type of doors and handles you have, I think they make some type of "slide" lock thing to childproof cabinets. It slides around the cabinet door handles and locks with you tightening a part on the other end. If you have a Babies R Us or anything like that, I would ask someone there for suggestions ... they should know the latest childproofing items on the market, and should be able to help you find alternatives to drilling! ;) Good luck!

if the cabinets have doors on them, they are some safety latches that can be slid through the handles of 2 adjoining cabinets so they won't open...i've seen them at lowes and walmart. also, you might want to ask the office personell, in a situation such as child safety, they might go ahead and let you install the other kind.

Ask your landlord if they may be installed. When our oldest started exploring the land, we were renting. The way the cabinets were in our apartment, the locks with the alligator teeth things just would not have worked. He told us that as long as the doors or cabinet bases were not damaged to go ahead. (As in, yes, you can drill a hole, but if you crack the wood, you're responsible for replacing it.)
