I live in an apartment and when it was built, a fire alarm pull station was installed right next to the front door. The problem: It is only 3 1/2 feet off the ground. I'm assuming they needed to consider that anyone could live here and account for people in wheel chairs but what about kids? I have a 19 month old son who is nearly 3 ft tall. As much as I would like to say he would listen to me when I told him never to touch it unless there is a fire, I live in reality. He hasn't discovered it yet but it is only a matter of time.

The question is, can anyone tell me how I can cover the pull station to prevent his access but not break a fire codes by completely preventing its use? I looked up fire alarm covers but all I could find were covers which sound an alarm when opened (from underneath). It would scare him the first time but become a game after that.
