I have my bathroom door that locks on the other side. I don’t want roommate to come in. How can I lock my door bc he can get in my room? Suggestions
Does this work on doors thst goes outwards?
Don’t know why, I tried putting them on my entrance doors and the lock doesn’t lock when I installed the piece
You said it cost five dollars and give the website which takes you to Amazon where the lock cost 14.99 not 5.00. Did you not check what they charge before you gave the. Wrong information.
I’ve just used this and it has jammed me in my hotel room
Thank you dear sir!
It depends on the door. Which way it opens, if it opens out it’s difficult also I’ve tried to use one on a door where there was a large uneven gap between the door and frame which made it unusable. 🙁
Thank you. Will try that one
Genius! Just bought one. My girlfriend travels now and then, she gets scared in hotel rooms by herself. Last time she went away, she stacked things against the door. This is a game changer for us.
Here in 2024
It’s not working 😢
Can i put on my door and still be able unlock my door? Cause where i am people don’t respect my room and leave things alot so wanted to know put it in and still be able unlock my door
Looks great.
What if you want to lock it and get in from the outside?
That’s good but anything to secure it if no one in the room? We don’t want someone put in spy camera later. Because most of customers will search for the spy camera when they check in but they don’t through out the days they staying.
Good review. Going to get a few. Thanks. Just subbed
Do this work on interior storage unit doors?
Mine came and I can’t separate the metal lock with the plastic piece, the wedges to the opening that goes on the lock are stuck in the top plastic whole part, and it came pre locked. Yours came separate it looks to me, how do I undo this?
bought on ebay
You literally did not show how to actually install this. Horribly done.
Purchased two of this style door lock for my wife and I and friends we were traveling with to Italy. At the hotels where we stayed throughout our trip to various cities in Italy the hotel doors doors opened out into the hallway. The door stops were on the room side of the door, basically on the inside of the room and there was no way of installing this security lock to prevent someone from forcing the door open. We did use the security locks at hotels in the US and they do work for what they are designed for. 0:15
Omg. You are not showing or explaining how it works!
Cool, but U need to show the actual metal part and where it actually goes. U never show that. Thx
THANKS FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO‼️😊👍
I said I use them
I have door that open to my home. The opposite of a normal dor. What can I use?
Yes I use them thay work well 👍🏻💯👍🏻
I got some of these a few years ago to stop our child from escaping our hotel room during the night… it adds an extra level of complexity for young children and makes your hotel room secure.
I can’t recommend these things enough 👍
In the meantime, what if the person indoors using these, has a medical condition or other issue that requires emergency assistance and they cannot take it off. Now the emergency services have to get someone there to break down the door. Silly idea.
It would be useless for someone who has glass windows on both sides of their front door and also useless if the door is mostly glass
My landlord refuses to install a lock on my bedroom door in my house i share with other peope. My bedroom is also 3 metres from the front door! I can’t sleep at night knowing someone could just walk in! I have been nagging them for months to install a lock, but im going to buy this, then i will actually be able to sleep! Thank you for the video, very informative
Where can u buy these?
The intruder could take this off
What’s really sad is hotel break-ins were rare once upon a time
Helpful thanks
Hello, I just want to ask whether I can use it to lock the door from outside? And then use a padlock to lock them together in order to let other people not be able to take it out?
I got this we are in Hawaii we are now 10 passed our rental car time pickup we are stuck in our hotel the door is jammed
Ever heard of a 10 cent triangular block of wood?
These are great but I can’t figure out how this would work on an inwardly opening door from the outside. I could see it working from the inside, but I need a locking system for my door when I’m out of the house cos anyone that sets foot in my home uninvited while I’m home will hobble back out like a cripple/a cripple.
This is not meant for solid homes securty
Do people know if these work doors which open outside. So rather than pulling you are pushing ?
Sr you gaime a good idea thatyou🌎🗽⛪
You should have shown your viewers where in put the chrome piece each time, then closes the door and attach the other piece. Instead, every time you inserted the chrome piece the door was only open a tad and nobody could see where you attached that chrome piece,

I have a doorframe that doesnt allow this to work but i only found out after I bought this what do i do
Does this work other way around too? Like If I am going outside and want to lock my door from outside can I do that?
