Kallax Drawer - Lock Pack
Design by R_vdk
A lock for my ‘too-curious-to-care’ toddler
Got a very nosy toddler, so long story short:
- Simple turning locks for Kallax drawer system
- Prevents opening the drawers without turning the lock first
- Multiple versions
- ‘Dampened’ Range: integrated dampening system to soften the impact when useing with the lock closed
- ‘Not Dampened’ Range: do integreted damper, simple lock with handle
- ‘Stealth’ Range: slim, sleak design with most minimalistic impact
- Double and single sided use
- Multiple srechole dimensions so you can use what you have laying around
Installing instructions
- Search for some wood-screws you have laying around (preferrably countersunk between 3 & 5 mm diameter)
- Download preferred locks (off course ;) )
- Measure center of the Kallax vertical wall in relation to the specific drawer (or where you cant to, really)
- Remember to always pre-drill your wood to avoid splitting it!
- screw in your screw into the wall with the lock in between
- Screw it in as tight or loose as you like, increasing or decerasing difficulty of opening the lock.
