Focused on one thing: keeping kids safe at home
Childproofing Atlanta is a dedicated baby proofing service for families across the Atlanta metro. No handyman side hustle. No franchise. Just childproofing, done right.
What we do
We install baby gates, cabinet locks, furniture anchors, outlet covers, and everything else that keeps curious toddlers out of trouble. Every job is done by someone focused on childproofing, not a general handyman extending out from other trades.
Each room gets its own approach. Baby gates at the top of stairs need hardware mounting into studs, not pressure tension. Cabinet locks need to match what is behind the door, whether that is cleaning supplies, glassware, or a knife block. Furniture anchoring matters more than most parents think; tall dressers and TVs cause most tip-over injuries. A full home walkthrough ties it all together so nothing gets missed.
Why a specialist matters
Childproofing looks simple from the outside. Mount a gate, install a few locks, screw an anchor into the wall, done. In practice the failure modes are subtle. A pressure-mounted gate at the top of stairs is a hospital trip waiting to happen. A cabinet lock that does not account for the door swing or the cabinet box will fail within a month of toddler abuse. A furniture anchor screwed into drywall instead of a stud holds nothing.
A general handyman is unlikely to tell you which IKEA dresser models were in a tip-over recall, why some hardware-mount gates work in old plaster walls and others do not, or whether your back-hinged cabinet doors need a different lock than your face-frame uppers. We treat childproofing as the focus, so the answers to those questions are in our heads instead of a Google search you do later.
How we work
- We know Atlanta homes
- The 1920s bungalows in Virginia-Highland with plaster walls. The open-concept new builds in Brookhaven. The split-levels in Sandy Springs. Every house type has different childproofing needs, and we have solutions for all of them.
- Quality products
- We use gates, locks, and anchors that meet current ASTM and JPMA safety standards. Products that hold up to daily use by real kids.
- Honest advice
- We will tell you what your home actually needs and what you can skip. Not every cabinet needs a lock. Not every room needs a gate. We focus on the hazards that matter.
- One-visit service
- Most jobs are finished in a single visit. We measure, install, and walk you through everything before we leave.
What we do not do
Pool barriers, fence inspections, alarm systems, and electrical work fall outside our scope. Pool safety in particular is too high-stakes to handle as a side service; for that we recommend a dedicated pool fence company that carries the right insurance and certifications. Same with security hardware and any work that requires an electrician's license. Doing fewer things on purpose is how we keep the things we do dialed in.
Service area
We serve Atlanta ITP and close-in suburbs: Buckhead, Midtown, Virginia-Highland, Decatur, Brookhaven, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Smyrna, and surrounding neighborhoods. Every part of the metro has its own housing stock and its own childproofing quirks; see the neighborhoods we serve for specifics by area.
