A drawer security attachment includes an attachment flange or brackets and a cover extending from the bracket. The flange or brackets attach to the inner surface of the drawer face, and the cover extends across the width of the otherwise open top of the drawer to inhibit access to the drawer contents. The flange and cover may be a single, monolithic sheet of flexible plastic, or may comprise rigid components secured to one another by a hinge. The cover portion includes a catch engagement passage(s), with a pin(s) extending downwardly from the upper portion of the drawer opening. The panel is urged upwardly against the upper portion of the drawer opening, with the engagement passage(s) automatically catching on the pin(s) as the drawer is opened. The cover can include extendable wings to match an overall width of the cover to the drawer width.

The invention claimed is: 1. A drawer security attachment, comprises: an elongated drawer front attachment body adapted for attachment to a surface of a drawer face; and an elongated drawer content cover flexibly attached to the attachment body and extending rearward therefrom, the cover having a width adapted for substantially spanning a lateral width defined by opposing sidewalls of the drawer so that the cover extends across the width of the drawer and substantially covers a drawer opening to inhibit access to the drawer, the drawer opening defined, in part, by the drawer face and opposing sidewalls for at least part of the front-to-rear depth of the drawer opening; wherein said cover comprises at least two cover portions that are coupled together and are laterally, adjustably extendable from each other to adjust an overall lateral dimension of said cover with respect to the lateral width defined by the opposing sidewalls of the drawer. 2. The drawer security attachment according to claim 1, wherein one of said two cover portions comprises a detent and the respective other of said two cover portions comprises a series of notches for receiving said detent, a relative lateral extension between said two cover portions is set by putting said detent into a selected one of said notches. 3. The drawer security attachment according to claim 2, wherein one of said two cover portions comprises a slot elongated in a longitudinal direction of sliding open and closed of said drawer, said slot having a narrow region and a wider region, said wider region being sized to receive an enlarged head of a retaining pin, said narrow region sized to not pass the enlarged head of said pin but to pass a narrow shank of said pin that is adjacent to said enlarged head for attaching the cover to a frame member of the drawer opening to inhibit access to the drawer. 4. The drawer security attachment according to claim 3, wherein one of said two cover portions comprises a channel, wherein the respective other of said two cover portions comprises an edge region that is slidable in said channel to adjust an overall lateral dimension of said cover. 5. The drawer security attachment according to claim 3, wherein said narrow region of said slot extends in said longitudinal direction on both ends of said wider region. 6. The drawer security attachment according to claim 1, wherein said attachment body comprises two spaced apart brackets. 7. A drawer security attachment, comprising: an elongated drawer front attachment body adapted for attachment to a surface of a drawer face; and an elongated drawer content cover flexibly attached to the attachment body and extending rearward therefrom, the cover having a width adapted for substantially spanning a lateral width defined by opposing sidewalls of the drawer so that the cover extends across the width of the drawer and substantially covers a drawer opening to inhibit access to the drawer, the drawer opening defined, in part, by the drawer face and opposing sidewalls for at least part of the front-to-rear depth of the drawer opening; wherein said cover comprises a slot elongated in a longitudinal direction of sliding open and closed of said drawer, said slot having a narrow region and a wider region, said wider region being sized to receive an enlarged head of a retaining pin, said narrow region sized to not pass the enlarged head of said pin but to pass a narrow shank of said pin that is adjacent to said enlarged head for attaching the cover to a frame member of the drawer opening to inhibit access to the drawer. 8. A drawer security attachment, comprising a one-piece sheet of flexible material having: a drawer front attachment body adapted for attachment to a surface of a drawer face; a drawer content cover extending rearward from the drawer attachment body, the cover having a width adapted for substantially spanning a lateral width defined by opposing sidewalls of the drawer so that the cover extends substantially across the width of the drawer to inhibit access to the drawer; and a resilient joint joining the cover substantially normal to the body; wherein said cover comprises a slot elongated in a longitudinal direction of sliding open and closed of said drawer, said slot having a narrow region and a wider region, said wider region being sized to receive an enlarged head of a retaining pin, said narrow region sized to not pass the enlarged head of said pin but to pass a narrow shank of said pin that is adjacent to said enlarged head for attaching the cover to a frame member of the drawer opening to inhibit access to the drawer. 9. The drawer security attachment according to claim 8, wherein said narrow region of said slot extends in said longitudinal direction on both ends of said wider region. 10. A drawer security arrangement for securing the contents of a drawer that is slidably carried by a drawer frame, comprising: a retaining device having an anchor portion for attachment to a portion of the drawer frame that is adjacent to a drawer face, a shank extending from said anchor portion toward the drawer, and an enlarged head extending from said shank; a drawer front attachment body adapted for attachment to a surface of the drawer face; at least one cover attachment hinge extending from the attachment body; and a drawer content cover attached to the hinge and extending therefrom, the cover having a width adapted for substantially spanning a lateral width defined by opposing sidewalls of the drawer so that the cover extends substantially across the width of the drawer and substantially covers a drawer opening defined by the drawer face and opposing sidewalls for at least part of the front-to-rear depth of the drawer opening for inhibiting access to the drawer, wherein said cover comprises a slot elongated in a longitudinal direction of sliding open and closed of said drawer, said slot having a narrow region and a wider region, said wider region being sized to pass said enlarged head of said retaining device, said narrow region sized to not pass said enlarged head of said retaining device but to pass said shank of said retaining device, said enlarged head securing said cover to said frame while sliding of said drawer relatively moves said shank through said narrow region. 11. The drawer security arrangement according to claim 10, wherein said narrow region of said slot extends in said longitudinal direction on both ends of said wider region. 12. The drawer security arrangement according to claim 10, wherein said attachment body comprises two spaced apart brackets. 13. The drawer security arrangement according to claim 10, wherein said hinge comprises a living hinge. 14. The drawer security arrangement according to claim 10, wherein said cover comprises two portions that are laterally, adjustably extendable from each other to adjust an overall transverse dimension of said cover. 15. The drawer security arrangement according to claim 14, wherein one of said two portions comprises a detent and the respective other of said portions comprises a series of notches for receiving said detent, a relative lateral extension of said one portion with respect to said other portion set by putting said detent into a selected one of said notches. 16. The drawer security arrangement according to claim 14, wherein said two portions of said cover are engageable telescopically and selectively extendable to adjust the overall lateral dimension of said cover.
