Safety Matters has incredible service. They come in an install everything - I didn't have to do anything. I had an issue with a latch in the kitchen, and they came over very quickly to fix it at no charge. I highly recommend these guys if you need to childproof your home but don't have a lot of time to take care of it yourself.

Fantastic service with Safety Matters. The team answered all my questions as a first-time parent. The products installed are all top of the line. Payment and pricing is transparent from the start. No guessing games. I would absolutely recommend Safety Matters for anyone looking for this convenient service.

We recently purchase a new home and were overwhelmed with all we needed to do once we moved in. At the top of the list was childproofing our home. I looked into doing this myself but between the tricky staircases and fireplace I felt I didn’t have the time or expertise to do this properly on my own. I was so relived to find Safety Matters and read about all of their services. After an initial consultation with Larry in our home where a variety of serious child risks were identified that I would have overlooked, his installation team can back and took care of everything in one day. They did everything from making custom gates at the top and bottom of our stairs, childproofing the fireplace and kitchen cabinets to installing special protectors on the electrical sockets that were better than anything I found on my own. All of the work was professionally done and looks great. This was a big headache that went away for me in one day. I highly recommend their service for anyone who has small children at home.

Larry came to our house to suggest everything that he could see as a potential hazard and was very professional and quoted us a reasonable price for everything. Alex, Larry's installer, came and installed everything in a timely manner. Over the course of a year, I contacted Larry for additional needs and they got each piece we needed installed. I even tried installing some gates on my own and ran into multiple challenges, especially installing around the baseboards. I called Larry one last time to have a gate installed to keep our daughter out of the kitchen and it works perfect! Thank you Safety Matters for keeping my daughter safe!!!!!

This company is wonderful. We used them 7 years ago when we moved into our house. Those kids grew and gates came down. When we had a new baby this year, I asked if they would re-install the gates we still owned. We had bought gates from them previously, so not sure if they always will do that, but they agreed. They came out that day and installed them perfectly into our old house using spacer bars and zip ties and other tricks of the trade as needed to make gates work on irregular staircase openings and to avoid need for screws going into the 100 year old newel post. We could never have done work ourselves. We also bought a new gate where we needed it for irregular basebof stairs and pricing was very reasonable and solution was perfect. Extremely friendly and terrific at what they do. Highly recommend. Pricing was per gate installed (less for those we already owned). They also installed some anti-tip straps on furniture and tv. I feel much, much safer now.

The process was great! We are not very handy and have a second little one on the way so we knew we needed help baby proofing. I had a free consultation with Larry the owner. We walked room by room and I went over my concerns and he went over his. We came up with a game plan to do two separate installations because we are playing musical rooms and didn't have everything where we wanted it yet. The next day the installer (I think his name was Paul) came out and went to work. He was friendly and very courteous as well as cleaned up after every project. We will absolutely hire them again. I especially recommend them for areas that aren't textbook. They really build and design each gate for your needs.
