To avoid accidents, a proactive approach is the best way. In the case of furniture, the best way to achieve this is by properly securing each piece of furniture to the wall.

Depending on the type of wall (drywall, brick, concrete, etc.) and the furniture, it is necessary to use appropriate fixtures, such as screws, anchors, etc., that ensure the safety of both the wall and the furniture during use, as well as the proper attachment of the furniture to the wall. If you are unsure about the appropriate fixtures to use, seek the help of a professional.

How to prevent accidents from falling furniture or appliances:

• Make sure that the furniture is securely anchored to the wall using the appropriate support fixtures.
• Avoid placing heavy objects on furniture that is not intended for this use.
• Do not allow children to climb on shelves.
