To avoid accidents, a proactive approach is the best way. In the case of furniture, the best way to achieve this is by securing each piece of furniture properly to the wall.
Depending on the type of wall (drywall, brick, concrete, etc.) and the furniture, it is necessary to use appropriate fittings, such as screws, plugs, etc., which guarantee the safety of both the wall and the furniture during use, as well as the proper securing of the furniture to the wall. If you are unsure about the appropriate fittings to use, seek the help of a specialist.
How to prevent accidents from furniture or appliances that may fall:
- Ensure that furniture is securely fastened to the wall using the appropriate support fittings.
- Avoid placing heavy objects on furniture that is not intended for this use.
- Do not allow children to climb on shelves.
