Magnetic solutions sound good, but are they really child-resistant at this age?

Yes, from my experience they work very well. It is important to follow the installation instructions carefully to ensure optimal adhesive strength. I also recommend cleaning the surface with an appropriate cleaning agent before applying, so the adhesive sticks properly.

Additionally, it’s important to explain to children that the furniture is off-limits, even though their constant interest is understandable. A combination of technical safety measures and education works best in this case.

All in all, I can summarize as follows:
- For your age group, magnetic child safety locks, especially designed for IKEA BESTÅ, are very effective and child-resistant.
- Pay close attention to proper surface preparation to ensure the adhesive bonds remain durable over time.
- Avoid using screws if you want to keep the furniture in good condition.
- Additional measures, such as furniture placement and concealed storage, complement the overall protection.

If anyone needs specific product recommendations or pictures of examples, I would be happy to provide more details.

In short: Magnetic child safety locks, glued on the inside, are ideal for BESTÅ. No screws, almost invisible, and hold securely.

Can only confirm: A good magnetic lock from the inside is the simplest and safest solution for BESTÅ doors.
