Professional oven lock fitting - stop children opening hot oven doors. A simple safety measure that prevents serious burns.
### Hot Ovens, Curious Children
Ovens get very hot. Children want to see what's cooking. **A child opening a 200°C oven door causes serious burns** - to hands, face, and body. Oven locks prevent this.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Children are fascinated by what's cooking. They'll pull the door open to see. Lock it before they learn to do this, not after.

Frequently Asked Questions about Oven lock fitting in Newton Abbot
Why lock the oven?
Hot ovens burn. Children are curious about what's cooking and reach for the door. A lock prevents them opening a 200°C oven door onto themselves.
Will it work with my oven?
Most modern ovens yes - there are different lock styles for different door types. Very old or unusual ovens might need creative solutions.
Is it annoying to use?
Once you're used to it, you won't notice. The slight inconvenience is nothing compared to treating a burn.
What about the hob?
Hob guards and knob covers are separate safety items - we can fit those too. The oven lock just protects the oven door.
