There's a regular lock on our bedroom door. It scares me. I know someday we'll lock ourselves out. Hmm, can't remember if the bathroom door has a lock or not. If not then that's another way in...

We have a 2 year old, our solution was to put duct tape on the inside door knob. Not elegant, but it works, for now.

Also, check the doorknob and most of them have tiny holes in it, which with the proper tool or a small thin screwdriver, you can unlock the door from the outside. That's how my Dad used to get into the bathroom if I took a shower over 5 min. long!! :rolleyes:

My cat locked himself in the bathroom once. One of those push button locks. Fortunately, those are pretty easy to open from the other side.

Won't work for the bedroom door as it's a standard key lock. But the bathroom (which connects the hall to the bathroom) is your usual bathroom lock with the emergency hole, so not an issue.

Is there any reason why you need a key lock on the bedroom door? Why not swap it out for a generic door knob?

*Shrug* Why spend the money? If we ever locked our door, I suppose we would, but we never do so it's a non-issue.

It's never a good sign when you're told the boss has to meet with you this week, ASAP, and oh, they can't tell you what the meeting's about.

But you know that this agreement surfaced from 2003 that's a huge problem for us. And you weren't here then and the boss wasn't here then, and the head budget dude wasn't here then and no one knew this existed until the prior head budget dude left and then going through files it surfaced.

There was no possible way I could have known about this weird arrangment. It's not recorded anywhere I have access to. It's totally out of the ordinary.

Nevertheless, because it's a huge million dollar problem someone has to pay the price. And I think it's my head on the block.

Um, 'cause it's not that expensive, and might save you some grief in the long run? It's always the day you're running late to some urgent meeting when the door accidentally gets locked.

Um... what she said. I was about to say the same thing.
