Home safety

Your home should be a refuge from the worries of the world—a safe space to work, create, relax and recharge. But there are naturally some hazards in all of our homes, and IKEA offers the affordable home safety essentials you need to help keep your space safer. Browse our selection of home safety accessories, including padlocks, smart locks, slip resistant mats, door stops and more.

Affordable padlocks keep your valuables safe

Whether you’re keeping your kids out of the good candy stash, or securing medicines and cleaners, our slim profile padlocks make easy and affordable work of keeping your belongings and your family safer. 

Want to keep a lock on areas that are safe for everyone in the family to access? To make it easy to keep track of the combination, we recommend setting the same number for every lock. This way you’ll keep strangers out of your shed, but your teenager won’t be able to blame forgetting that particular combination when explaining why they didn’t get the yard mowed!

Want to get a lock on safety on the go? Keep a couple padlocks in your bag or glove compartment so you’re always prepared to keep your things safe. Whether you have an unexpected trip to the gym or water park and need a lock for the locker, or need a quick way to keep a broken door closed, for just a few dollars you can be ready for anything. 

The helpful, humble door stop

When you’re trying to keep a door propped open, the same solution that has worked for years is still among the best and most affordable options—the door stop! Not only do door stops have an incredibly accurate name, but they also boast an equally important purpose in keeping your home safe. 

Simply put, door stops are helpful in keeping doors propped open that you don’t want closed. This can be especially helpful if you have children or pets that can accidentally close doors behind them, or pinch their fingers (or tails!) They’re also an easy, low-profile solution for any home with doors that tend to easily close due to loose hinges, age or airflow. Never get to the top of the basement steps with two armfuls of laundry and an unexpectedly closed door again!
