Review: EASY install, keeps kids and pets out (or in)! - I LOVE this door lock and wish I would have known about it 6 years ago with my first child. I ordered one to start, because I was skeptical. But the lock was delivered as expected, it was in easy-to-open packaging, and literally slid onto my son's door. 30 second install from the time you open the box. Really. I kept looking at the packaging thinking I must have done something wrong because it was so easy. After we saw how well it works in keeping our son IN his room, I bought a couple more to keep him OUT of other rooms. Then my daughter decided she needed one to keep him out of her room when she's at school, and my husband wants one for his office since it was much easier than locking and unlocking the door every time he wanted to go in and out. And I bought one for the master bedroom to keep the cat out of there. So, we now have 5 locks. I wish I would have known about these when I installed one of those ugly hook and eye locks on the kitchen pantry, which now has a permanent hole in it, but now I know... The device works very well in keeping my son in his room. He even tries sometimes, especially at first, to slam open the door, but the lock holds up. Some people have complained about the open space the lock creates between the door and the jam, but I actually like it. It keeps the air flow through the room, and it also gives my son a sense of not being locked in his room since he can still see a sliver of light out in the hall way. The best part is that I can now sneak into his room at night to check on him without trying to catapult myself over his loud baby gate we used to have. Easy in, easy out! Because they're so easy to install, they're totally portable. You don't stick or screw anything in. We use them at the grandparents when we visit, hotel rooms, so great! I will say they're so easy to use that a 2 year old can figure it out. It's true. The magic is that you just put the device at a level that they can't reach. So my 6 year old has one on her door to keep her little brother out. She can reach it, but he can't. And I have one on my husband's office door that neither of the kids can reach, so it keeps them both out. Love it!
Review: Perfect for what we needed it for - I would give this product 10 stars if I could. I guess it depends on your specific door or circumstance but we have a standard 3br/2bath spec home with popular, inexpensive doors and the reason we bought the product was because we took in a feral cat and wanted to allow her to interact with our inside cats without having full access in case something kicked off. Easy to install - literally a few seconds, easy to open from either side, won’t allow door to close in one direction while limiting it to about an inch and a half crack in the other direction. Cats can’t get through the gap but can sniff and look and get a playful paw through. A little overpriced for what it is but worked perfectly for our situation.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you adjust how wide the door is cracked? I need something to use on closet (that has my small cat's litter box inside) to my big cat out.**
A: No. I suppose if your door is a little wider, as in maybe a few mm, then yes because it'll have to open a bit more to fit, thus making the space a tad wider. Unless you have a tiny kitten, your cat will not be able to squeeze through. I have a purebred Bombay, and she is always looking for trouble lol She's also very lean and can squeeze through just about any space. Thus, the Door Monkey! I bought one to keep her out of my bathroom, but also to allow ventilation. I love the fact that I don't have to lock the latch EVERY time I walk out of the room! It's hands down one of the best little investments I've made. I would go so far as to call it a lifesaver. If you need a wider space, I believe there are fish shaped, rubber or plastic latches sold on here that would be perfect for letting kitty in, whilst keeping puppy out. 
Happy hunting :)

**Q: Can this be used for front doors? We want to use it for our front door since our daughter has figured how to open it by herself.**
A: Here ....Prime-Line Products U 9888 Flip Action Steel Door Lock, is another lock that is simple and will work on an exterior (opens inward) door to prevent a child from opening the door

**Q: is this one made of metal or painted plastic?(i have used the plastic ones and my son can break thru...)**
A: Plastic, they do break. My 1 year old and 3 year old both broke one each. When they were affordable, no worries, but at $13 each now, they aren’t worth it.

**Q: Can a  3 1/2 year old easily open this? I have a 13 month old that I want to keep out of the bathroom, but I want my 3 yr old to get in and out.**
A: yes.  Your 13 month old could open it from one side (the other would be harder but doable).  I would just keep it high enough on the door that the 3 year old can reach it, but not the 13 month old.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Life changing!
*by A***A on September 1, 2021*

Let me first say the Door Monkey is seriously life changing if you have little escape artists like I do. As a mom of 3, this product has been a staple in my household for about 7 years. My oldest (at 18 months old) figured out every baby-proofing device on the market. We had to find something that would keep him in his room overnight because he would get up in the middle of the night, sneak downstairs for a midnight snack, and in the morning I would find half-eaten butter sticks (he thought it was cheese) or full tubs of yogurt with a spoon sticking out hidden under the dining room table. We tried putting the lock on his door backwards, but since it was one he could open with a coin, he would pull pants out of his closet and use the zipper pull to unlock the door, he also used buttons on shirts and even pulled the tabs off furniture (the screw hole cover tabs) to pick the lock. We had to do contraband searches in his room to make sure he didn't hide objects that could unlock the doors. We finally found the door monkey and it was life changing. We absolutely love this little device! It is super easy to install and use! It keeps the door open just about an inch, so no pinched fingers and air can still circulate in and out of the room. Fast forward to child number 2, also an escape artist, we were totally prepared for his shenanigans with the door monkey. Fast forward to child number 3, this device is easy for my two older kids to operate on their doors to keep little sister out of their rooms, it keeps the cat out of her room, and we don't worry about pinched fingers or slamming doors. My boys like having control over being able to let themselves in and out of their rooms, with no worries about getting locked in a room like some of the devices out on the market. I will say, my two older boys figured out if they pushed on the door at just the right spot, it would pop the door open, but they were about 3 when they figured that out. I do have the door buddy to keep the dog out of the room the litter box is in, we like the door buddy, but the problem we have is that it is an adhesive fixture, which is why we only have 1 to allow the cat in her room while keeping kids and the dog out. We don't like adhesive products mainly because we live in military housing ... and anyone who has lived in military housing knows when you remove anything adhesive from the walls or doors, you will pull about 15 layers of paint off with it (even command strips). Since I don't want to get charged for those repairs and I'd rather not try to fix it myself, we really limit the number of adhesive products we use in our home(s). You do need to make sure you don't have a beveled or rounded door jam, the door monkey won't work on those (you will need the adapter, which wasn't available when I first found these). Sometimes the doors are too narrow for the door monkey to really stay tight on the door, but that's an easy fix with some rubber furniture pads cut down to size, slip that between the door and door monkey and it won't budge on you, and it won't leave a mark on the door. I highly recommend this product (I'm ordering more today since my littlest one is discovering she's tall enough to reach all the handles and she's exploring more of the house) to keep your little ones safe and to preserve your sanity (and let you get some much needed sleep)!
