Maintenance on Your Door Locks

Protecting your child from dangerous areas in and around the house does not stop with purchasing a door lock. Safety can only be maintained when those locks are routinely checked and serviced. Especially with prolonged use, door locks can loosen. Every month or so, check to see if screws need tightening. Every six months or so, consider replacing the units entirely.
