Default 5 point door locks

What's the point in those fancy 5 point door locks, when you can simply put your foot straight through those stupid modern PVC doors? They're hollow! Wood is far better.

Top Tip. If someone shoves your feet in a fire, quickly put your head in a bucket of iced water. On average, you will be pretty comfortable.

We have a 5 point lock on both a wooden exterior door and on a metal patio
door.
