Just wondering if anyone has come up with a nice way to keep the drawer under the sofa closed while driving? I stapled velcro to both corners but ended up having to use heavy duty velcro and now it is too hard to open.

I used magnets (2) from Lee Valley tools and they worked great and they hold 35 pounds each part number 99K39.07 to hold the magnets in place I used two kitchen cabinet door knobs with shorter screws drilled thru the couch draw be careful drilling thru the couch or the foam will bunch up around the drill in the end the knobs look like they belong there ornamental buttons hope this helps

Thanks for the info and the pics. I was thinking of using the child proof appliance latch, but your idea looks better. Now I have to find a better way to attach the cabinet door above the couch...fell off going to Sedona last weekend....

old thread. use the earth magnets but .... take the draw out and put one in each corner facing the floor and two on the floor. Works flawslessly.
