I need cabinet lock recomendations for my grandmother. We are at her house a lot. Her cabinets are solid oak. Will the magnet locks work with those? Are the magnet ones the best option for someone with arthritis or is there something better?

We have the Kidco magnetic locks and they are great. I think they would be best for a grandparents house since you can deactivate them when they're not needed. They'd be great for someone with arthritis since all you do to open the cabinet is place the magnet over the lock and open-- no sliding latches, reaching in to push down on a latch, hooking stuff around knobs, etc. My mom has the magnetic locks on her dining room hutch and only activates them when we're visiting. They're great!
