warning about lever handle style door locks
A lock is only as good as the door jamb it's locking into. If the door
was installed without a metal backing plate behind the jamb, a properly
applied shoulder to the door is all that is needed to break it. I've
had to do this once and I managed it on the first try with only a 2
step lead up and about 1/4 of my 170lb weight.
