Will my four year old be able to handle these locks? I want him to be able to enter the bathrooms, but not my toddler! Thanks!

I never installed this lock as I bought is for an exterior door and it did not fit properly, so I cannot answer your question.

I have a 5 year old, and 2 year old twins. I showed my 5 year old how to use the latch- he got it right away- he used two hands- one to lower the little latch and one to turn. Worked perfectly for us!

To "unlock" the lock, it requires the user to push the mechanism in while sliding it to the other side. I think, with a little practice, your 4 year old could do it.

No. Someone could kick this lock open pretty easily. We use them on inside doors for child-proofing purposes i.e., locking door to basement so our toddler can't pull the door open and fall down the stairs.

thanks for asking. ours have a turn lock on the inside (like found on a bedroom or bathroom knob) on the out side there is a small hold and they include a "key" like thing that looks like the "key" that use to be on top of a can of spam. (if you are old enough to remember those) it is in the shape of a capital T. So while it is not officially unlocked from the outside should our two year old accidentally lock himself in the bathroom I have placed the "T-Key" on the top of the door casing/framing so it is always there. hope this helps. They have performed outstanding for us. thanks for asking. ours have a turn lock on the inside (like found on a bedroom or bathroom knob) on the out side there is a small hold and they include a "key" like thing that looks like the "key" that use to be on top of a can of spam.

My barely 3 year old can buckle himself, but still can't unbuckle the bottom, but my 4 year old does just fine!

I prefer the key, I thought about the combination lock but didn't think that it was secure enough from a child playing with the lock and getting lucky. A curious child will eventually figure out the combination. At least with a key I know that as long as it's on me I've got the way in....provided the child/person doesn't have a screwdriver and hammer.

i have a 4 year old and he would fit in it but it would be hard to push them as they weight alot!!!!! so yes they would fit but you may need to check the weight.

I have a toddler, not a dog, and it took him about a year to figure out how to open it, if it's any help.. it's the only lockable garbage can I've found.

The answer is a definite no. The only way your toddler would be able to turn the lock is if he/she the removed Grip Lock. I like the item so well I have bought one for every outside door and the garage door to the house.

The Safety 1st did not work for a clever cat but probably will work on a toddler. You can always turn the know around so the lock is on the outside rather than the inside of the door.

They do have locks. My son is 10 months and is always moving and we haven't had any problems.

My toddler is two years old he can't open it he's not strong enough. My other son was 4 1/2 years old when we bought it and he was able to open it.

it has 2 combination locks and is extremely nice. I think it's safe if your child is small. Big kid if the really want to jam the lock it is possible. My son is only 5.

yes. we had uncomfortable experience about that. and toddler sitting lock did not work sometime. it is big concern about toddler's safety.

Honestly I'd say no, when you squeeze them the water would go inside and it'd be difficult to get it out. I'm sure Infantino have actual bath toys? Hope this helps! :)

I think it is unlikely (depending on the age of a child). You really need to know how to do it and have more refined fine motor skills. It has never occurred to my 4 year old (and she tends to LOVE figuring out ways of "un-childproofing").

It depends on how young and how clever. It is a good latch but isn't a true lock. I would still recommended keeping the box put of reach to avoid temptation or getting a box that will lock with a key or padlock
