Congratulations to Groover Labs member Tate Hancock on the launch of his latest product, the Block-It-Socket, an innovatively designed babyproofing and child safety device that stays attached to power outlets so owners can’t misplace them.
Why Block-It-Socket?
Most outlet protectors plug into unused power sockets independently; one cover for the top outlet and the other for the bottom. Because the covers are standalone devices, they’re easily lost when a parent uses the power outlet.
How does it work?
The Block-It-Socket is a single-piece child safety outlet frame with two flexible socket covers that, when removed from the outlet prong slots, stay attached to the frame via a flexible hinge. The innovative design prevents the socket covers from getting lost while the sockets are in use, providing a further layer of protection from the prying hands of babies and toddlers.

"The Block-It-Socket is a complete and total game changer!!! Fully functional, and I can still utilize both sections of my socket when needed. You screw Block-It-Socket over your current socket and it just stays there, so no more losing protectors while that socket is needed. And when I am done, I just plug the protector right back in. No more hazard! I will be ordering a bunch more of these, and have already recommended it to other parents. Don't hesitate to purchase this great item." - Griff M.
"You don't have to worry about a child getting into your outlets when these are in place. They are stubborn and resistant to attempts to get them open. An opaque plastic design that sits over a two gang outlet, and screws into place through a central fitting / into the regular outlet cover screw hole, the covers hinge at the outer edges and feature plastic prongs that secure the 'lids' in position by fitting into the prong receptacles." - L.W., Homeowner
