You don’t understand how this video helped me. I was at my friends house and all of a sudden her daughter locked herself in the room and found this video and I slid my phone under the door so that she can understand how to unlock it since she’s only 6 years of age. She was successful thanks to your video

I'm going to install this in the guest room, that's where my Mother In-Law stays at, Make sure she never gets out, ever again. 🤨

I just hope none of the burglars in your area have access to tactical milk jugs.

I used them for child safety locks to keep the kids from opening the door every time the doorbell rang. I just installed them in my empty nest as I missed the extra security they offer. Great device!

I’m sure it’s been mention but recommendation is to put it closest to the actual deadbolt as feasible because the deadbolt is what helps assist in ripping through the trim of your door and that’s where the momentum is focused... where you have it will certainly work, but because where the force will be applied is the deadbolt area it is better to get the latch lock in that general area. Props for installing and having something man! Also reinforce your trim on the deadbolt side with 3 or 3-1/2 deck screws every 12” or so this adds another could hundred pounds of force to your secure door

You win some, you lose some. I have these locks. They work great. I was going to say something funny about your door with the window. But after reading the comments, I'll just say "Great idea! Thanks"

I have a similar door as the one shown in this video. I installed TWO of these locks, one above and one below the deadbolt, because that's where the burglars would kick the door. Used 3" long "premium quality" screws. To protect the window, I bought a window grill from Home Depot for $60.

I'm going to open your door with a milk jug

Glock 17 . Best door security.

Thank you. I can use this on my bedroom, but probably not my front door. Due to being disabled, I live in a low income apartment in an area where they've essentially legalized drugs. It's super scary here. My anxiety is horrible right now 🙏🏻 Blessings 🙌

First of all, I would never have glass doors. Also, your door frame and its strength are important. Last but not least, the length of the screws in your door hinges matters a lot. Some people use one half inch screws for their hinges and make it much easier for doors to be kicked in. Replace them with 3-inch screws.

Great video! I have 2 of these on all of my doors leading outside. One six inches above the deadbolt and another six inches below the bottom lock. This reinforces it from being kicked. Wonderful video thank you!

But for only $10 each, why not put one low and one high, including deadbolt?

I think the one you drill into the floor that slides in against the door is the best as its not relying on th door frame for strength ,its the floor holding the door shut.

I think it’s important to remember that when it comes to burglary, you just don’t want to be the lowest hanging fruit. This would be a great thing to have because most criminals are amateurs and will check the nob, kick the door once or twice and move on to someone else who left their window unlocked. But there are professionals out there who would make quick work of this. I’d invest in a security system as well as motion lights or those ring doorbells along with this device.

First saw these at a Love's truck stop. They have them on the showers rooms so you know you are safe when you are showering.

HELLO THAT A GLASS DOOR ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS BRAKE YOUR GLASS ..

Excellent hardware. I installed them in my house several years ago. Still in use, very, very solid security.

I added these to my home after my front door was kicked in at 1:30 in afternoon while I was home. I didn't have time to get to a gun, I just got between the 3 grown men and my girlfriend. They were shocked anyone was home and ran. If you haven't done anything to modify your front door there is a 2 inch strip of wood secured by 1/2 inch screws. Your deadbolt is worthless, most high school kids can kick that open. A standard deadbolt only takes 100-200lbs of force. The average man can generate 1,000lbs of force with a kick. Each one of these devices you add to the door adds 800 pounds of pressure. Changing your strike plate screws from 1/2 inch to 3 1/2 inches will secure them to the 2x4 in the door frame. Making these simple changes gives your door a minimum of 2,000lbs of pressure. If you think you will get to a gun before you are overtaken you are mistaken. This simple affordable product can save lives.

I have installed these on all my doors and feel so much safer. I really like how tight & flush the door is when these are engaged.

Lol there is a video on YT of this getting defeated with a plastic milk jug.

I guess it’s extremely popular now. The price has gone up to $15! Dang wish I got it when it was still $10, still good protection

Window film on the glass makes the glass much harder to break through,the film holds the broken glass together, just a thought.

One last thing to add is be careful how high you put these. Yes you want to keep your kids from getting away but you also don’t want to trap them in the house in the even of a fire. Keep them at a height your children can reach and also try to use it yourself with your eyes closed or in the dark so you know you will be able to do it in the event of a fire when your disoriented.

Door Devil on all exterior doors with a ASNI grade 1 deadbolt to prevent bumping. Ditch the glass door and have all exterior doors of metal construction. With the Door Devil or similar product, a metal frame is not necessary. Also, reinforce the door hinges with 3.5 inch wood screws. Be sure to drill pilot holes before installing the wood screws, so you do not split the framing.

If I wanted in through his door I would just break the window in the door reach through and unlock both locks. Might be a better idea to swap out the door to one with no window if you wanted security. Just a thought.

I’ve had one on mine for years things works great

I have this on my back door that is hidden in a fenced yard away from view of neighbors (front door close to well lit street and I have neighbors who smoke outside even in blizzards). Along with deadbolt and keyed entry and hinges all using 3.5 -4" , I have this knee height and again just above deadbolt. Statistically most break-ins in homes (as opposed to high rise apartments) are through an unlocked window. Breaking the double or triple pane glass is a lot harder than you might imagine and noise brings unwanted attention. If they get through my back door, alarms will sound and blinding lights flash. LOL! I pity the fool!

Great if you're indoor, how do you use it when leaving your house?

Maybe install it lower at the kick point?

I have this product on my front door. I used this at the top of door to prevent my forgetful grandmother from leaving the house. I put at top of door where she could not reach it. Device can withstand 800 pounds of pressure. Better to put lower down on the door to prevent door from being kicked in.

Many reviews of these locks say that the screws are junk and that you need to get different screws than the ones it comes with.

Conveniently forgot to mention that you need to chisel away wood trim to install it, not just drill and screw

I put 4" screws into my metal security door. typically the studs are at least double thick at the doors so you get 4 to 5 inch or more of wood to bite into. I want those cruises long and far as I can get in there so that somebody can't kick in the door and bust the screws out

Thank you! I have toddlers. Ordering these right now!

I love reading the comments and seeing the users who give negative comments on free information. And usually those comments come from those who have zero content uploaded ever.. Yes guys, it’s an inexpensive option to upgrade the feeling of security a little bit. No, for your 15$ it won’t stop a tank attack or even a battering ram. But if it takes 15 seconds longer for someone to get in, that’s well worth the money. Thanks for the time take. To show us this!

Door frames are often very weak as most are constructed of not more than an inch of softwood. The key to that devices effectiveness is high quality screws that are extra long, 3 or more inches, that penetrate well into the wall studs. This increases its integrity dramatically, as well as deadbolt strike plates if you install similar length screws there too. Your security weakpoint now is the glass window in the door. Breaking it causes noise so that can be a deterrent but not often. To address the glass vulnerability there are some very effective security films/laminates. Just be sure to install them right up to the window edge or the whole pain will just break out around the exposed edges. A few upgrades go a very long way to deterring lazy useless goofs.

I bought one of these to try it and immediately bought 2 more. I've also replaced the cheap strike plates and replaced all the door screws with 3" SS deck screws. I also spent a few bucks for brackets that hold a 2X4 across a door in the garage that gives us backyard access.

I wanna see a door kick test

I'm my house, intruders will be met by my Cane Corso accompanied by my 9mm or shotgun :) but I guess this lock is still nice to have

As soon as I saw this video I knew there would be people commenting on how you can get around it. There are always ways to get around anything but what you do is you make it more difficult for the criminals. Not all burglars would break the window and they might might not know how the lock works. (Or you could simply use it on the door without a window)if you were at home it would buy you time to get other “defensive” measures in place. $10 is cheap it certainly would slow down people andGreatly prevent kick attacks.

Pro tip if you're want even greater security buy some #10, #12, or #14 screws that at least 3 inch. So now instead of relying on the door jamb to stop the door, you're relying on the actual door frame.

Per drill the holes before installing the 3-3 1/2” screws. If you install one above and below, it will be much much better from a physical attack from outside. One problem most will have, is the doors frame or jamb has a gap behind it. If you use a nice wide pry bar wrap it in masking tape or wide (Tall when vertical) metal butter knife wrapped again in masking tape or towel to prevent paint or drywall damage. Either way, you are trying to remove the trim or casing from that side of the door where latch and dead bolt are located. In construction terms, drywall stops short of the door jamb or frame (Same Part). But you will see a jack stud that goes close to the door case, but not touching it. This is the rough opening used to order a pre-hung door for example. This gap behind this device may pull in as you tighten the screws. Normally,,Zulu would take two shims sold in plastic or wood. Place the thick end into the opening where this device goes. Second shim is slid it thin side first to create an adjustable wedge to fill this gap, some gaps are thinner or wider. But fitting snug, close the door and check the gap to ensure it is even, top to bottom. If good, drill hoses smaller than screws and long screws between 3” - 3 1/2” or our longer, require a “TORX” bit like “T25”. These are brass colored mostly, but touch up with white oil paint from hobby store. Latex is fine and organized people keep marked in a cool storage space, but latex is water-based and after a few years, may show rust. My true fix is plate steel that is the thickness of the gap. Buy & cut 4” longer from top lock down 4” below bottom door latch (Knob or Handle). Buy or cut the depth of the gap of the jamb or casing. Hold in place with wedge or flat screwdriver. Mark opening thru dead bolt hole, then knob latch, drill the four corners and use a jigsaw or coping saw fitted with metal blade. With door stop pried off and removed, drill hole within its width to hide 4 screws, stop once thru metal plate. Pre-drill smaller holes for 3 1/2” - 4” - 4 1/2” inch construction screws, then tighten. The dead bolt and latch (Tapered Part) creates the ultimate backing plate to latches that hold these from being kicked in. It takes work but creates genuine confidence a lot of noise and sore legs and give up & run away. The noise alone will give you time to wake up, take action while spouse dials 911, while your “Louisville Slugger” at hand. Food for thought. As a retired ASE Master Tech since 1978, I fabricate and design parts or products I use at my house, as it started with a metal door I installed in the back kitchen door. I rebuilt the sill below the door once out. I was shocked to see my 1980 house I bought in 1993 from the original owner. The sill plate was naked. I cut out and installed PT wood and water/ice shield heavy rubber sticky on one wide and created an angle for water to run out. Sealing each hole with butyl tape and around the brick molding before installing the door. My expensive screen door shocked me when it had bare wood in the back. I put two heavy coats of oil based sealer on back, then two coats of color exterior latex paint over thin spray paint coat. Just picky but who wants to do it again in 12 years? Not me!

What if the person has a milk jug?

They can't kick that door in without breaking the glass. Genius!

OMG! Thank you a thousand times! I could not figure out how to release the locking mechanism. I sent a set back because the instructions said to just squeeze and open but didn't mention the pulling motion. I was getting so frustrated. Yours is the first video I've found that demonstrated the steps so well. Thanks.

Thanks to your video, I have since bought this type lock in a two pack! One for me, and one for my neighbor! We're happy to have them, thank you!

Absolutely super super cool for us parents with our little ones. 👍🏼

There should be an "ask a burglar" channel.

Some of the comments are a trip. Burglars usually case a place to determine patterns of the occupants, if they have dogs and all these things. I have a German Shephard but he's more like Lassie. He wants to meet everyone but I need to test him just so I know what he'll do. My part of the street is very dark. I had someone start prying into my side door and left plenty of evidence. My Dobie was on the other side of that door and he sat there, trained not to bark..On the window I could see his lip prints as if he were peeking in. The pollen from the tree stuck to his greasy lip prints. I've been barricading the side door but am always cautius when I go down there. I like this device. It looks simple to install and easy and reliable to use..

We have that lock , bought it at Home-depot , my husband put it on basement door , like it a lot 👍

I don't understand why people don't just read the comments section before they comment on the same thing someone else posted. I'm actually diggin these locks. I wonder if they have a version that allows you to lock it when you leave the house. Thank you for the review and I will look into these soon. Nice collection. I wish I collected cars like that but my kids would take them down and try to play with them. I still have a set I used to play with as a little boy. But that was like 5 years ago..... Hahaha. Kidding. I would play with those cars all day with my younger brother back in the days. Now it's all about tablets and TV. Trying to get outside. But Covid19 got us locked down. Anyways thank you. And wish you and your family well.

Wow that's awesome 😊👍. Great if you have little kids so they don't go for walks alone at 4 am.

Just break the glass reach in and unlock the damn thing

i would recommend this as a backup lock. For people who want a good lock buy a smart lock or a known brand deadbolt and use this lock this guy is sharing us as a backup lock

Why in the world would anybody slam this thing and give it a thumbs down I think it's a great video

What about when you leave out,more concerned abiut when im not in home breakins🤔⁉️

Love the video and lock, however I suggest for max security you install a solid door. Glass equals access. Solid door 🚪 with doorbell camera that records to network/cloud not flash memory. All the best.

We need this for a family member that has dementia!!! She tries to run off. 👍🏻 Thanks for sharing! 😁

Thank you for this video tutorial! I was struggling to open the device and you made it so easy to understand. :)

McNallyOfficial beat this with plastic from a milk jug …

This would be a great idea for women living alone.Have solid wood door Installed in both bedroom and bathroom and add this to both doors. Can give you enough time for help to arrive if someone managed to get in

Install it on the bottom of the door for even more strength

Well done just got myself one of these on amazon, think it's awesome that you've installed it high so you kids can't get out, I mite buy another so I can have high and low.

Make sure to reinforce the hinges with 5 inch screws as well

"this is your door frame... so it is SUPER SUPER STRONG..." yep... right... 😂😂😂😂

Heads up: Untill it UNDER the locks (with 3" screws) I made the same mistake (on two doors) but redid them after watching how doors are kicked in. It's always from people turning around and horse kicking the very bottom of the door or straight on at the middle of the door. It's never someone raming their shoulder at the top of the door. Think about it, putting it lower stops the kick at the latch so you're not wedging the bottom of the door like a crow bar bending it inward until the handle lock breaks.

I like it...but I also have an AR15...=))

Though it is a danger that exists, I'm much more concerned of someone breaking into my door while I'm out than when I'm at home. However, I do have some external doors that I pretty much never use to enter the house upon returning home, so these would be of perfect use on those.

Super super super high security. Nice looking little thing. Just wondering how can it really prevent if somebody wants to kick the door in? The preventing part against the door is very tiny. Here in Finland we always are wondering why your doors open inwards and not outwards? Our doors MUST open outwards because of fire regulations. When we have to go fast out, the door opens to the right direction. This has saved a lot of people. And the door is impossible to kick in. Well, sure it can be done but then the door must be smashed.

To further improve the door against brute force attack, it is best to install the door in a way, that it opens on the outside, not in the inside. This way - hammering or kicking the door inside - won't be of any use. And it's harder to break a door, that needs to be pulled, than pushed.

I don't like something that I know is easily openable.

When a door is kicked in usually nobody’s home therefore the door that is kicked in is usually the main entrance door. This device does not work when it’s the door that you exit from. second when a door is kicked in usually the door frame is also broken therefore if ?? this device does not have screws long enough approximately 3 inches to 4 1/2 inches long to reach the wooden studs of the structure of the home then this device would be defeated during a kick in. But it’s nice but really should be installed lower below the Handel to counter the impact of the foot or ramming object at the proper height of impact.

This works, i tried to break into a house a couple years ago and it stopped me from going in through the door. Get an alarm system if you're paranoid.

I have those in my house. Would recommend for extra defense, the magnet in it is really strong.

Great product! I have them on all my doors.

An advantage of these is, you can't see them from the exterior of the door.

This is an amazing gadget. It won't stop your door from being kicked in but it will make it to where they have to kick in your door and then you would hear it vs them just picking your lock.

This looks sound compared to other locks. If you screw 3" screws into the studs, that is a lot better than other locks on the market that just fit inside the bolt hole which is generally a 1/2" piece of wood trim.

I like to think about how to protect myself from intruders with locks and stuff but I also like to consider how to escape the house during a fire and this lock is hard to get open and thus bad in a fire situation.

Got a very strong set of eyebrows, I trust it..

Take a drink every time this guy says "super".

Thank you so much, my door is recessed and i can’t put a bolt on, a new door lock would cost over £100, this is a lifesaver

IMHO... It seems as if the 1/4” of door, this device clamps over, would simply splinter away should the door receive a sturdy jarring. It should’ve been designed to secure much more of the door. 1 or more inches.

Oh man, you put $10 security device to protect your car toy collection? Hopefully you have something else to backup.

I would think you could just break the window on the door and reach in and unlock it.

It should be emphazised that it is only as good as the doorframes. Meaning that you need to reinforce the doorframes, as you will often see them kicked in along with the door.

omg i need this for my curious toddler

There's a second video of how someone tried to get in his house but couldn't cause of the lock they did shatter his window but still couldn't get in all u see is comments about his window 😅

Im in NYC and I have: Steel reinforced doorframe, a thick-industrial-strength solid steel deadbolt with a pick-proof lock & metal-plate over it. Anything helps though. People getting more & more Desperate.

That ending, the ending is what did it for me. The honesty about the affiliate link, definitely getting this from your link, definitely subscribing and liking the video. That's transparency is 🪙 Also, great product, thanks for the video

You should install it near the handle

I recommend you remove that thing and put it much lower. Either in the middle near the handle or just below the handle. If someone is kicking the door in, they are NOT kicking up high. They are kicking middle on down. Most will turn with their backs to the door and will then do mile kicks. If I wanted into that door (of course ignoring it has glass), I’d mule kick the bottom and it’ll then break inwards at the bottom. 💡 Now fix that my friend.

For everyone who doesn't already know the door jam is weak as he'll and will break super easy with a half-assed kick from. Just about anyone that's why this comes with 3 inch screws. That way you screw threw the jam and into the stud that the jam is attached that's where u get your strength from, it's also recommended to replace your hinge screws with 3 inch screws so that they 2 will hit the stud and not just the jam

A door with a window is supposed to have a double cylinder deadbolt.

Seems like a good product...I’ll try it 🤷🏾‍♀️

I have four bathrooms in my home I use 3 of them as panic rooms with hardware such as these and reinforced the door frame , I keep those cheap sentry safes in the cabinets with a charged power bank and cord for an old smartphone inside for emergencies

I purchased 2 of these for my back door. Gonna purchase a solid wood door for my bedroom and add these.

Just got this. I had an attempted break in by some junkie but my frame is already reinforced with steel strike plates all around. They never got in the first time. I’m hoping drilling holes in plates won’t weaken it for this. I may get door knob prop bar as well.
