Hi community! I'm in the process of childproofing my home and wondering about the best ways to secure heavy furniture and appliances. What are your tried-and-true methods to prevent accidental tip-overs, especially in homes with energetic kids or curious pets?

Secure furniture and appliances against accidental tip-overs by anchoring them to the wall with anti-tip brackets or straps, ensuring a safe and stable environment for everyone in your home! 🏡⚠️

Hi there! As a parent, I teach my kids not to jump off furniture or appliances or climb on them. To lessen the chance of tip-overs, I put heavier items—like books—in lower drawers or shelves. By taking these safety measures, you can greatly lower the possibility of unintentional tip-overs and improve your home's general security. To guarantee that these measures remain effective, regular maintenance and inspection are also necessary. 😊

Hey! To secure furniture and appliances, use anti-tip brackets or straps—they’re super effective. Anchoring heavy items to the wall is a must, especially if you have kids or pets. Also, keep heavier items on lower shelves to prevent tipping. Stay safe!
