Okay, so I was SUPER skeptical about these adhesive locks at first. Like, how strong could a little plastic tab with sticky tape really be? But after my Houdini toddler figured out our old latch system, I was desperate.
The installation took literally 30 seconds - just clean the glass (super important!), peel and stick. The adhesive is NO JOKE - I actually tried yanking on it and this thing isn't going anywhere.
What I love most is how invisible it is! The clear design blends right into our patio door. We placed it up high where tiny hands can't reach, but it's still easy for adults to flip open with one finger.
After two months of daily use (and my kid's constant attempts to escape), the lock hasn't budged or lost its stickiness. The only tiny downside? It protrudes just enough that you have to be careful not to slam the door too hard against the frame.
For under $10? Absolute lifesaver. Now I can actually pee without worrying my toddler will wander outside!
