TV Tip-Over Prevention from Best Buy

When you child-proof your home, please don’t stop at the socket plugs and hiding of the cords. Children are curious and they climb, and pretty much anything is fair game to be explored.

I learned this the hard way when my oldest daughter tried to climb her tall dresser to reach something at the top. The dresser came forward and would have crushed her, if she had not pulled out a lower drawer to stand on, which stopped it from fall over entirely. That was one very close call! Since then, I’ve secured anything and everything to walls, to protect from tipping. 

Now that TVs are lighter and thinner, they also come with a great chance to tip over and cause injuries. Securing your TV for safety is a really easy fix thanks to Best Buy. They have a variety of product options to secure all kinds of TV’s and even offer professional installation through the Best Buy Geek Squad.

Even though I’m a pretty handy gal around the home, I wouldn’t hesitate to get professional installation to give 100% confidence that the job is done right.
 

Best Buy Canada’s top TV mount products and installation services:

  • Sanus Anti-Tip Safety Strap
  • Sanus Wall Mounts
  • Geek Squad TV Installation Services
  • Do you have the TV’s in your home safety secured?

    Wow! I would love to win. My temperamental tv is a very old, bulky box-style unit. It is taking up a ton of room. I moved and downsized and am feeling very cramped among dated furniture and kids toys. Currently it is housed inside of a huge hutch which is consuming valuable space in my main living area. I would be so grateful to have a new tv professionally installed and secured by Best Buy.

    We have just moved and our new TV is still in its box. I won’t put it out until we have a proper wall mount. Had a similar situation when my oldest daughter was around four years old. We had a wall unit with a fold down desk. She decided to sit on the desk and the entire unit came down. If not for the countertop, she would have been crushed. She’s now 27 & I still secure EVERYTHING!

    I would like to win because none of our tv’s are mounted. They are all just sitting on TV stands or other furniture. We’ve talked about mounting them but we keep procrastinating. I’m sure having one done would encourage us to get the rest mounted too.
