Child Safety at Home: How Anti-Tip Furniture Solutions Help Protect Your Family
When creating a comfortable and beautiful home, safety should always come first—especially for families with young children. At Cardi’s Furniture & Mattresses, we’re not just focused on style and comfort—we’re committed to helping you keep your loved ones safe. One of the most important and often overlooked safety concerns in the home is the risk of furniture tip-overs.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), thousands of children are injured each year in tip-over accidents involving furniture, TVs, and appliances. Dressers, bookshelves, and even nightstands can become dangerous when children climb on or pull at drawers and shelves. That’s why using anti-tip devices is critical in homes with kids.

What Are Anti-Tip Devices?
Anti-tip devices are simple, effective tools that secure furniture to the wall, preventing it from tipping forward if pulled or climbed on. These devices include:
-
Furniture straps or brackets
-
Wall anchors compatible with most dressers, bookshelves, and chests
-
Built-in safety features in select child-safe furniture designs
If you're unsure which type of anchor you need, just ask a Cardi’s Furniture & Mattresses team member—we’re here to help guide you toward the right choice for your home.
