corner protectors

Furniture safety covers

Corner protectors are cushioned guards that attach to sharp furniture edges—tables, countertops, shelves—to prevent injury when someone bumps into them.

They're a standard childproofing measure, installed when babies begin crawling and pulling themselves up: We put corner protectors on the coffee table before she started walking.

Also used to protect corners of items during shipping.
