At Pakenham Electrician, we understand that the safety of your children is your top priority, and electrical outlets are one of the most common hazards for young kids in the home. Our Childproof Outlet Installation service is designed to keep your little ones safe from electrical shocks and accidents, providing peace of mind for you as a parent.
Here’s how we can help:
1. Protect Your Children from Electrical Hazards
Electrical outlets are easily accessible to curious toddlers and young children, making them a potential risk. Without proper protection, children may attempt to insert objects into outlets, which can lead to electrical shocks or even severe injuries. By installing childproof outlets, we can prevent these accidents before they happen.
- Tamper-resistant outlets (TROs) are designed to block foreign objects
- Spring-loaded shutters that close off the outlet slots when not in use
- Safe and compliant with current safety codes
- Easy to use for adults while keeping children safe
2. Installation of Tamper-Resistant Outlets (TROs)
Our childproof outlet installations focus on using Tamper-Resistant Outlets (TROs). These are now required in new home construction and renovations, but they are also a great option for older homes that don’t have this feature. TROs have built-in safety mechanisms that prevent anything other than a plug from being inserted into the outlet, offering an effective and permanent solution to protect your children.
- Automatically protects against accidental insertion of objects like keys, toys, or paperclips
- Provides a higher level of safety compared to outlet covers, which children can remove
- Blends seamlessly with your existing outlets, maintaining the look of your home
3. Upgrade Your Existing Outlets
If your home was built before tamper-resistant outlets became standard, we can upgrade your existing outlets to childproof versions. Whether you need to update a few key outlets in areas where children play or want to install TROs throughout your home, we’ll ensure your outlets meet the latest safety standards.
- Full replacement of existing outlets with TROs
- Installation in high-traffic areas, children’s rooms, playrooms, and common areas
- Safety inspections to ensure all outlets are functioning properly
- Electrical panel checks to ensure compatibility and proper grounding
4. Professional Installation for Maximum Safety
DIY solutions, such as plastic outlet covers, can easily be removed or forgotten, exposing outlets. Our professional installation ensures that your childproof outlets are securely installed and fully functional, providing long-term protection. We handle everything from selecting the right outlets to ensuring they work correctly with your electrical system.
- Fast and hassle-free installation by licensed electricians
- Ensure outlets are installed according to safety codes and regulations
- Ongoing support and maintenance to keep your outlets functioning perfectly
