Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Clearview Child Resistant, Handicap Accessible Switch GuardCustomer Review: Too easily accessible Summary: 3 Stars
We bought this item because our infant is getting to the point where he can turn on and off the light in his bedroom rather easily, and we wanted something to prevent him from accessing the switch. This item looked like it would do the job, and overall it does do what its supposed to.
My disappointment in this item is the fact that the cover is really easy to open. I know that is listed as a feature on this item but I did not think it was going to be this easy. We have this mounted with the hinge on bottom, so that you open it from the top. Once I mounted the cover I tried to see how easy it would be for someone to open, and to my surprise you can open the cover with very little effort, it just opens right up without having to push down to "unlock" the tab. I double checked to make sure it was mounted correctly and that I had the cover snapped into place with the tab that is on the unit to hold the cover on and it was, but this does not hold the cover in place securely. Although right now my toddler cannot reach the top to pull down and open it, he will be able to do so soon. It will work for now, but I would be weary of getting this item if you are looking for something that will completely keep your child locked out from the switch.
Description of Clearview Child Resistant, Handicap Accessible Switch GuardClearView switch guard invisibly protects switches from accidental turn-off or turn-on. It easily installs over existing wall plates with no exposure to electrical wiring using the screws on the wall plate. No messy or damaging glue, no drilling and no screws into the wall.
The unique hinge makes it more difficult for young children to play with switches, but is easily accessible to adults even with arthritis. The hinge can be mounted either on the top or on the bottom. To open with the hinge on top, apply a gentle downward pressure at top of the hinge to release the tab at the bottom. Lift to open.
The ClearView switch guard can cover both rocker and toggle switches. The ClearView switch guard can be used on dimmers, motion detectors, oil/gas burner shut-off, security lights, regular light switches and more.
