TV Corner Guards (Child Safety): Buy in Nairobi, from Pro-Logic Technologies
For families with young children, the television presents two distinct safety concerns: the risk of the TV falling onto a child, and the risk of a child colliding with the sharp corners of a TV stand, cabinet, or wall-mounted bracket. TV corner guards address the second concern — soft, cushioning covers that fit over the corners and edges of furniture and television surrounds to protect children from injury. Pro-Logic Technologies in Nairobi stocks child safety corner guards as part of our commitment to keeping Nairobi’s families safe.
The Reality of Corner Injuries in Young Children
Children between the ages of one and five are at the highest risk of corner-related injuries. At this developmental stage, children are exploring their environment with enthusiasm and limited coordination. They run, tumble, and fall constantly — and the sharp corners of furniture, TV cabinets, and AV equipment stands are at exactly the head height of toddlers. Impacts with hard, sharp corners can cause lacerations, contusions, and in serious cases, concussive head injuries.
Corner guards reduce the impact force and eliminate the sharpness of corners, converting a potentially dangerous edge into a soft, rounded surface that significantly reduces injury severity.
Types of Corner Guards
Foam corner guards are the most common and affordable type. They are made from high-density foam covered in soft PU leather or fabric, and attach to furniture corners using strong self-adhesive backing. They are available in various sizes to fit different corner dimensions and in colours (clear, white, black, brown) designed to blend with furniture aesthetics.
Silicone corner guards offer greater durability and a more refined appearance. Silicone is naturally soft, flexible, and non-toxic — an important consideration for households with infants who may chew on accessible objects. They also tend to be more resistant to peeling over time compared to foam alternatives.
Edge guards (sometimes called edge bumpers) complement corner guards by covering the straight edges between corners — providing continuous protection along the entire perimeter of a table, TV stand, or cabinet.
Installation Tips
For corner guards to be effective, proper surface preparation is essential. Clean the corner surface thoroughly with alcohol to remove dust, grease, and any polish residues before applying adhesive-backed guards. Press firmly and allow the adhesive to cure for several hours before the area is exposed to children.
At Pro-Logic Technologies, we stock corner guard kits that include both corner pieces and edge guards, in packs sized for complete room coverage.
