Abstract: A door guard for preventing a child from opening a refrigerator door while not reducing adult access to the refrigerator comprising an elongated rigid bar having flanges at each end, the bar being sized in length to fit between the back wall of the refrigerator and the front wall of the door of the refrigerator in the locked position. The bar is mounted on top of the refrigerator and prevents access from a small child while still allowing an adult to quickly raise the bar in order to open the refrigerator door. The device prevents a child from inadvertently leaving the refrigerator door open for long, unattended periods which could cause damage to the refrigerator compressor motor while also preventing a child from having access to the interior of the refrigerator.
