we're in a rental property so we can't swap out the door. this is a full door, split in two. They don't latch or anything and the door knobs are for pulling only, they don't turn.
what kind of device can we use to baby proof?
I tried a lock for cabinet handles but it didn't work as these are full size door knobs..

I assume since it is a rental this is probably not be an option, but what about an eye hook? We put an eye hook on our attic door in the trim and door, but then you have a small hole in each. It wouldn't be hard to fill and touch up with paint though afterwards. Other than that, I don't really have any ideas. Sorry!

@creativemomma15: I think that will be our last resort. could sworn I saw something somewhere designed for this though.

I have these on my cabinets. They've been working for us but my LO is only 11 months.

@rachiecakes: what she said.
We have doors like that (our kitchen pantry) and it's the only thing that keep him from dumping the cereal on the floor every.single.day.

@rachiecakes: I bought something similar (different brand) and the knobs were too far apart to work. I guess I should try these ones?

@wheres_c: the loop part can come out completely so you can wrap it around the base of the pull and rethread it back into the lock. I'm positive it would fit your doors.
