I told my huffing kid's P.O. that "I can't lock up everything in the house!" That was after I read the long list of common household products which kids can "huff" [inhale]...
Well for certain foster kids, they EXPECT YOU to lock up everything which can be huffed in your home. And that left me with a problem with my glass front medicine cabinet in the bathroom. I can't exactly drill a hole in the glass to install a lock...
But SUCCESS! I found a "magnetic activated lock" which works without drilling any hole. I now have locks installed on the glass medicine cabinet and every door/drawer on the cabinet below the sink. (And regular key locks on kitchen cabinets with chemicals, medicines, or alcohol in them. Note "alcohol" includes vanilla extract!)
Anyway the magnetic lock product is called "safety 1st magnetic lock". Safety 1st is the brand name. And magnetic lock is the type of lock. I found these at Target and Ace hardware. You can also search the internet for the words...
child magnetic lock

safety 1st magnetic lock
FYI - Here is the LONG list of household chemicals they might huff/drink [including air, oven cleaner, and WD 40!]...
