4.0 out of 5 stars Work really well., July 22, 2008

This review is from: Mommy's Helper Slide-Lok Bi-Fold Door Lock (Baby Product)

These are great. They work just like they say they will. We even have one door that is less than 3/4" thick and it still works OK on that one even though it isn't ideal.

The problem is that they are so expensive. I was hoping that based on the price there would at least be 2 slide-loks in each pack (since most closets with bi-fold doors have 2), but THERE IS ONLY ONE SLIDE LOCK PER PACKAGE. (I looked for this information everywhere, but there was no indication in the ads as to how many were in each pack.) This manufacturer is making a killing on these things!

All-in-all I would still buy more if I needed them. They do give me peace of mind that my little ones can't get into the closets, which is definitely worth a little expense. They also blend in well and since we have only had them a few days, I keep forgetting they are there until I can't open a closet, which is a good thing. I'll definitely be shopping around if/when I decide to buy more, to see if I can get a better price. I'll also probably sell mine on eBay when I'm done with them to make some of the money back.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what i expected, August 2, 2008

This review is from: Mommy's Helper Slide-Lok Bi-Fold Door Lock (Baby Product)

When searching for an item to prevent my nearly two year old twins from opening the closet doors, I thought this would be perfect. The product should have specified that it does NOT work with metal bi fold doors. I placed the product on the door as the instructions said and as soon as i tried to open the door with it in place (with and without the extra piece to hold it in place) it popped right off! I am sure if the doors were solid wood, it would have worked, but i would not recomend this product if your bifold doors are the older metal style!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple yet great product!, December 12, 2008

This review is from: Mommy's Helper Slide-Lok Bi-Fold Door Lock (Baby Product)

I've shopped around in Wal-Mart,Home Depot, ToysRus, BabiesRus and Ace for the bi-fold door lock. All of these stores carry different kinds of locks which will satisfy my requirement but fail miserably on my most important criteria: Once the usage ends don't mar the door or the wall.

All of the other locks are either screw or glue type which when the need is over leave either ghastly holes or glue stains. I don't want to caulk or spend time/money fixing the after shock. All I need is a lock that will be useful for maybe 2 to 3 years and when my daughter gets older, I should be able to remove it easily but while being used, it has to be effective. This lock fits the bill precisely (including the price)!! I've been using it and am delighted. Thanks Amazon! I couldn't have found it any other way!
