Child Proof Outlets in St. Augustine, FL

Keeping your kids out of harm's way in the home can be challenging, but our experienced team is here to help. Installing childproof electrical outlets is crucial to protecting your loved ones from shocks and burns. Child proof outlets may resemble conventional wall outlets, but their safety features set them apart. They come with spring-loaded receptacle cover plates designed to prevent children from inserting objects into the outlets, avoiding electrical contact.

Children's curiosity can be dangerous, especially with household items and features like electrical outlets. Studies reveal that one-third of related accidents occur when children insert household items into outlets, often in the presence of adults. Everyday items often lodged in electrical outlets include:

• Keys
• Tools
• Toys
• Knives
• Nail Files
• Jewelry
• Paperclips
• Staples

When choosing child proof outlets for your home, avoid those that require plugs to be screwed into place, as they pose a fire risk. After installation, avoid the use of plastic bags over the outlets, as they pose a choking hazard. We recommend using our service professionals for reliable and safe installation of your child proof outlets.
