Abstract
This disclosure pertains to a child deterrent closure with multiple interlocking elements on each zipper profile. The lower interlocking element of one of the profiles includes an interior flange which is unsealed thereby causing opening forces on that profile to be directed to a lower seal rather than to the lower interlocked elements. The interior flange must be moved to expose the lower interlocked elements and to direct opening forces to the lower interlocked elements.
