I forgot my key on the hole and locked the door when I got in. Now I can’t open the door.

I’m not concerned, the wife is hanging with a friend, so she’ll be able to open the door when she gets back, but I was planning to go get a pizza

    I lived in an apartment that had a keyed lock on both sides cause of a small window in the door. Was to stop someone from breaking the glass reaching in and turning the dead bolt from the inside.

    I replaced the inside with a standard non keyed latch cause I was worried about fire and also felt odd if someone came over and I locked the door they would be trapped… scare a girl you bring home in a hurry. 😆

      Keyed on both sides is the standard now in the UK. I’m not sure why, probably security reasons.
