I do wonder if the OP has the right type of lock on his front door.
Every lock I've had on front doors has needed a key to open once the
door has been closed. An extra turn of the key has been required to
dead lock it.

I run 100% on chubb type locks. No door in this house locks on
closing. All require a key.

Live on your own, then? Or just don't care about other's safety?


It may come as a surprise to you but in many parts of the country we
don¼t feel the need to have locked doors when we¼re in the house.

Just have the door swinging open then if the only lock is a Chubb?

You are allowed to have a spring-operated latch and door knobs/levers.
