Who this home safety checklist is for
This checklist is for families, renters and homeowners who want a safer home for children, older relatives and pets. It suits new parents, people caring for an aging parent at home and anyone who has never written down a fire escape plan. Most home accidents are preventable, and a room-by-room check helps you spot hazards before someone gets hurt.
How to use your home safety checklist
Walk through each room with the rooms checklist, looking for trip hazards, loose cords, unsafe storage and missing locks. Test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and record the dates on the alarms page. Write a fire plan with two ways out of every room and a meeting spot, and draw it on the map page. Keep emergency contacts by the phone. List fixes needed and tick them off as you complete them.

Is there a fire escape plan?
Yes. Use the fire plan and map pages. Look for the "Fire Escape Plan" and "Escape Map" pages in the 11-page home safety checklist. Download it free, print only the pages you need and add more copies of any page later.
Can I record alarm tests?
Yes. Look for the "Alarm Testing" page in the 11-page home safety checklist. Print the A4 or US Letter PDF as often as you need, or write in the digital version on a tablet. Every page is undated, so you can start any day and reprint a page whenever it fills up.
Is it good for childproofing?
Yes. The room checklist covers common hazards. Other pages in the 11-page home safety checklist include "Room by Room Check", "Alarm Testing" and "Fire Escape Plan", so related notes stay together. Every page is undated, so you can start any day and reprint a page whenever it fills up.
Is the Home Safety Checklist really free?
Yes, the Home Safety Checklist is completely free for personal use. Download the 11-page PDF without an account or email address, print it at home as often as you like and share the page link with friends. FolarraStudio is free to use. In the future, a few clearly labeled ads may help keep it free.
What size is the Home Safety Checklist?
The Home Safety Checklist comes in A4 (210 x 297 mm) and US Letter (8.5 x 11 inches), plus a hyperlinked digital PDF for tablets. Choose the file that matches the paper in your printer and print at Actual size or 100%, so nothing is cut off. Both paper sizes have the same 11 pages.
