Oval Knob
how do you “Babyproofing” old, odd-shaped door knobs?
I live in a 106 year-old house and the door knobs are more oval than round so the conventional door knob covers don’t work (they actually seem to make it easier to open the doors). The door knobs are actually part of the door so I can’t just remove them and get new ones (I don’t think anyway). Any ideas on how to keep my children from being to open these doors?
I live in a 100-some year old house, too.
We never even tried to babyproof any doorknobs.
Use baby gates where that makes sense. Where it doesn’t, try using hook and eyes, or even a screw and a mini bungee cord.
