Safety Tips: Anchoring Heavy Furniture

Every year, children are injured or killed because heavy items such as bookcases, bureaus, or television stands topple down on top of them. This is a tragedy, and one that is so easy to avoid!

If you have any untethered furniture and you small children who live in your home or who visit, it’s so important to anchor these pieces to the wall. It should take only an hour or two to anchor all of the large, upright furniture in your home, and it could very possibly save a child’s life. Even if your own kids are grown, do it for your grandchildren, your neighbors and other kids who might come to your home.

Your family’s safety is important to us, and we install our garage organizers securely in order to minimize the chances of injury. Take the opportunity to do this in your own home this upcoming weekend.
