There can be several common safety issues involved when one is installing a hanging pot rack. The primary safety issue would be hanging a pot rack on a surface that cannot support the weight. Another issue would be pots falling from the rack and causing injury.
To create a DIY hanging pot rack for your kitchen, you can follow these steps: Choose a sturdy material such as wood or metal for the rack. Measure and cut the material to the desired size and shape. Drill holes for hooks or S-hooks to hang the pots. Attach chains or ropes to the rack for hanging from the ceiling. Install hooks in the ceiling to hang the rack securely. Hang your pots and pans on the rack for easy access and storage in your kitchen.
The standard placement of a pot rack is hanging from the ceiling. This type of rack was designed to hang over the stove so the pots are easily accessible.
Hanging pot racks are a time tested favorite for pot and pan storage. If installed propery, a hanging pot rack should pose no danger to children living in the house.

If your kitchen cabinets are dark wood you should get a dark metallic pot rack. They would compliment each other well.
You can use a pot rock for hanging pots, and pans you have in your kitchen. This is good so you can have quick and easy access to your pots, and pans when they are needed for cooking.
As long as your pot/pan rack securely stores your cookware, there shouldn't be any issue. The higher up your cookware sits on it, the better, as the children are less likely to knock things off. Your safest option would be a hanging rack, where children cannot reach the rack or your cookware.
I can't think of any reasons why this wouldn't be safe. If your kitchen is clean, the normal heat of cooking will kill anything that may have landed on a pot while hanging up. The only problem might be if you have small children and some extremely heavy pots.

Depending on the pot rack and your location, to have a ceiling pot rack installed would cost around $200. If any electrical work is required, it would cost more.
The rack's weight should be balanced whenever possible, both for proper support and to keep the rack from swinging as you access the pans. If the rack has multiple chains or other hanging points, hang each from separate hooks, rings or bolts. Before you start, you might make a template to mark the exact hanging points on the ceiling or wall. Be sure to check for adequate support before proceeding with the installation.
