Frequently Asked Questions about Toilet lock fitting in Ottery St Mary
Why lock the toilet?
Toddlers can drown in just a few inches of water. They're also fascinated by splashing in toilet water, throwing things in, and generally making a mess. Locks prevent all of this.
Is drowning really a risk?
Yes - toilets are one of the most common household drowning hazards for toddlers. A top-heavy child leaning in can't get back out. It's a real danger.
Will I have to unlock it every time?
Yes - but it takes one second. Adults learn the release quickly. The minor inconvenience prevents tragedy.
What about guests?
Show them once, they'll remember. Most toilet locks have intuitive releases. Better a moment's confusion than a drowned child.
