Professional dresser anti-tip fitting - secure your dresser to the wall so it can't fall on children. Children climb drawers. Anchoring stops climbing from becoming catastrophe.
### Drawers Make Ladders
Children are natural climbers. **Open dresser drawers look exactly like steps** - and when a child climbs, the whole thing can topple forward. Anti-tip anchors prevent tragedy.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** IKEA includes anti-tip straps with furniture for good reason. This is genuinely life-saving safety equipment, not overcautious parenting.

Frequently Asked Questions about Dresser anti-tip fitting in Exmouth
Why do dressers tip over?
Children open drawers and climb them like steps. Or they pull on open drawers, shifting the centre of gravity forward. Heavy furniture becomes deadly when it falls on a child.
How does anti-tip work?
A strap or bracket connects the dresser to the wall. If the dresser starts to tip, the anchor holds it back. Simple but life-saving.
Will it damage my wall?
Small screw holes that can be filled later. The alternative - a dresser falling on a child - doesn't bear thinking about.
Do I need to anchor all furniture?
Anything tall that could tip - dressers, bookcases, wardrobes, TV units. If a climbing child's weight could topple it, anchor it.
