I wish I would have gotten these years ago. But when I saw a deal of 2 for $10, I had to give them a try. The results were surprising. Fits in a purse or pocket, these blockers can provide you added protection at school, work, home, and on travel. This is an honest review. I paid for these portable door locks with my own money.

You could also carry chalk, a shaped rubber piece that wedges in at the base or the door and if it is rubber then you can put it on the opening side of the door where the lock is. Also a worn out flip flop will cause unwanted guests by doing a wedge under the door but you always need to do it near the frame base where it opens at the widest poing.

When we travel my wife, and I both seniors. We hang a cross from the top of the hotel room door so it rests right above the room number. You will be surprised what a deterrent that is. A tenant from another room saw me in the morning, and said to me "we were freaking out, we thought there was someone dead in there"😊 I purchased thru a catalog years ago a battery operated alarm which hangs on the inside knob of the room, if anyone touches the outside knob a deafening sound occurs. But I will buy these as added protection.

Make sure the screws in the plates of your door jamb are long enough to HOLD the pressure of the lock. I have these because the building maintenance person they called in for he apt BELOW me, came into MY apt! They opened the door, I was asleep and FREAKED out!

I purchased this lock and it works. It works so well, that I got locked in the bedroom. FIRST Be sure when you turn the knob that the knob goes in ALL THE WAY flush with the door. If not, you will be locked in as I was in a two story house. Someone had to take a ladder, climb onto the roof and then through a window to have access. He then had tools to take off the door from the hinges to free me. When we turned the knob we saw the issue. The know did not turn flush with the wood of the door. I will definitely use the lock - its really sturdy! But be aware of the ability to turn the knob all the way in before you utilize. Or you too...will be locked in the room.

@bonnies743 Ай бұрын

Also, we could not open the door even though there was just a sliver of the little latch that did not go flush with the door. So, don't worry about in not working from the other side. I'm proof - it works!

This kind of lock has been around forever. There is a one piece slide lock that works great.

I like this but opted for a simple large eye screw. Push it into the crack of the top of the door is what I did, and screw it down a turn or two creating a wedge that makes everything work together if someone kicks the door in, it holds well, as I tested it. Combined with a 2x4 cut and wrapped in non slip grip wedged under the door handle and I can't even be rescued if I needed it without massive work. I used things I already had, but this for the price looks great if you travel.

How most stores this will work well with the deadbolt but on a home the thickness of the door casing and the screw length into the structural frame will determine its effectiveness. Very commonly the door casing is the 3/4-in board which is not very strong if the strike plate is attached to that board with 3/4-in screws and somebody were to ram the door the door casing would probably split. But if you run screws that are 3 in long through the door casing into the structural lumber (the 2x4 or 2x6), then those screws will hold the strike plate in place which will hold your brace in place against the door in place and the door will be very difficult to get open even if you've got just a spring bolt.

Have I designed a similar portable door latch before, with a usage method similar to the one shown in the video, but with the addition of an alarm function? I think this is a novel door latch. What do you think?

It actually works I just got mine today, I bought some for my sister too when her husband has to work she's at home by herself and gets scared sometimes, I live by myself also I've had people try breaking in before when I lived in another apartment, I feel secure now if someone breaks down the door it least these locks will give you a head start !! It works great!! From Minnesota.

There’s a KZfaq video where they tested these two hole door locks against the single hole Addalock. The metal plates on these two hole locks bent and we’re not as secure as the single hole Addalock. I bought Addalock.

This is a great idea...IF your door opens inward. I was looking at this for a classroom application, but all the doors in my school have doors that open outward. Unless I missed it, the video doesn't mention that. Is there anything like this for doors that open outward?

My 80-year-old father who has dementia lives with me, and I've had a problem with him trying to get out the door in the middle of the night. I have five locks on my door currently and he has pretty much figured out how to get out of all of them except for one but, he's been inspecting that one a lot and I pretty sure he's going to figure it out. With this work installed on the outside of the front door to prevent him from getting out? I wasn't sure what you could see on the other side of the door? I know it would be visible from the outside but I'm not really worried about someone getting in as much as I am him getting out right now.

@MakeItorBreakItNow 2 ай бұрын

This lock only works on the inside. You might try this one: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qKh6npp41LrSink.html if you placed it higher on the door and made sure it was installed tight, which is the correct way, in order words you need to press on the door to release the lock it may work for you.

This is impressive. Can this portable lock be padlocked, so that only a person with a key can remove it? I am asking because I would need to lock an internal door in the shared space of a building, and a portable solution would be much simpler than having to install a deadbolt or equivalent.
