Guest guest Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 They look good, but I am also concerned about burglars kicking the door open. I have burglar bars from Lowe's. The sunburst or they call it the sunset. Whatever (shrug). With a better lock, I will not worry about my Don, or the burglars. If there is a fire we can get out a window quickly, And firemen can get in quickly. Burglars don't like windows anymore as they are not as fast as doors, and awaken homeowners in a small house, as ours. Windows draw too much attention. At the door, the homeowner may be having company as far as the neighbors know. Not so with a window. I like the lock, but now that I have the door, I don't need the lock. Way back when I could figure out what to do I would have jumped at it. That is good for an apartment. Can anyone enter from the other side of the lock? Is it for keeping a loved one in only?

It is a simple procedure, but it was to difficult for Mom. And you can get them at Home Depot. One of the other things I like about them was they didn't need a key. Others can open them easily. They cost about $20. and I would pay that again in a second. Hugs, Donna R ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Imogene, It is a one way lock for the inside. It would make it harder to kick the door in. But mostly it keeps those inside, inside. Hugs, Donna R Caregave for Mom (after I brought her from WI to MI) for 3 years and 4th year in a nh. She was almost 89 when she died in '02. No dx other than mine. Re: Re: Great door lock! OT They look good, but I am also concerned about burglars kicking the door open. I have burglar bars from Lowe's.
