Furniture and Television Tip-Overs
- Mount flat screen TV’s to the wall to reduce the risk of TV’s toppling off stand. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure you have a secure fit.
- If you have a large, heavy, old style cathode TV, place it on a low, stable piece of furniture.
- Use brackets, wall hooks, or wall straps to secure unstable or top heavy furniture to the wall.
- Install stops on dresser drawers to prevent them from being pulled all the way out. Multiple open drawers can cause the weight to shift, making it easier for a dresser to fall.
- Keep heavier items on lower shelves or in lower drawers.
- Avoid placing remote controls, food, toys, or other items in places where kids might be tempted to climb up or reach for them.
- Limit access of smaller children to open stairways.
- Keep stairways clear of objects and never allow running up or down stairways.
