child locks
Cabinet safety mechanisms
Child locks are safety mechanisms that prevent children from opening doors, cabinets, or windows, or from operating dangerous equipment.
Car child locks disable rear door handles from the inside so children can't open doors while the vehicle is moving.
On appliances and devices, child lock settings prevent accidental activation: Enable the child lock on the stove before leaving the kitchen.
