I have a traditional Yale type lock and have never used that button. Why would I wish to prevent someone (probably myself) with a valid key from unlocking the door? I wouldn;t want someone breaking into my place when I was there what would be the point of them doing that unles sit was the fire brigade or a medical emergancy. People have used bolts on doors and mortice locks been locked at night for years I thought most people locked themselves in. But if the lock works properly and cannot be picked, why do you need extra steps to prevent someone with a valid key from unlocking it? What makes you so sure it's a valid key ? whatever that means. Are skeleton keys valid. ? Which would mean the lock is rubbish. If you're out of your house, how can you lock it from the inside to prevent a key being used? You can't, but when leaving the house you have to have some way of getting back in, but when already in the house you don't need a way to get in because you're already in. Leaving your key in the door when you're inside has advanatges too, such as in a fire you don't have to go find your key and neither does anyone else who might happen to be in your house. There are disadvantages too if someone broke in or could get to yuor key through the letter bix like I did once. (although) that was an advantage in my case. I thought that doors only had one key in general use, What makes you think that ? I knopw couples that have a key each some even give a key to thier kids when they are old enough. Yeah, IMO its stupid not to do it that way for all but the youngest kids. Unless you can't trust the kid for some reason The only real consideration there is that some lose things a lot and some are mindlessly paranoid about what someone else might do with a lost key. Unlikely to be much of a problem with most given that hardly anyone is likely to know what the key fits, tho I spose you could argue that if the loser is a teenager, they might have arsehole druggy mates who do. Or that they are carrying something with their name and address on it. Which is why I think it's not a good idea to walk around with a driver license, Not possible in many jurisdictions, you have to have your drivers license on you when the cops pull you over for a breath test etc. passport or any other info where you details can be easily aquried just by looking and reading. Ditto when you have to show you are legally entitled to be there etc or just need some form of ID when picking up a parcel you have had carded etc. And only the worst klutz would lose their wallet and keys at the same time anyway. And its all academic now with decent modern electronic locks which work on RFIDs that can't get lost because it on a rugged plastic strip on your wrist etc. And with kids, you can work out where they are when they havent returned home after school when they were sposed to and can see that they are round at their mate's instead etc. Mad to never give a kid like that a key so that someone else has to always be home to let them into the house now that so many have both or the only parent working. Depends on the kid and situation. There are **** all kids where that would make any sense and it makes much more sense to have an RFID that sees the door unlock automatically when the kid shows up at the door than to have it knock on the door and have to have someone come to the door and let them in etc. or other same with 'adults' too. with the spare key in some safe place, in which case the problem doesn't arise. What do you mean in a safe place ? Where the house occupants can get at it easily, but a burglar is unlikely to find it. Yes that's the idea. Easy to do if the hidden key is only ever used very occasionally when someone forgets to take the key with them and is in the habit of just shutting the door behind them as they leave. Trivially fixed by changing the lock so it has to be locked with a key. But most locks that I know of for front doors do lock when the door is closed. I think most households in the UK have this type of door. Irrelevant to what makes sense now with proper electronic locks. which is the oppersite for car doors which anyone can open once unlocked. With car doors, the best of them have a button next to the driver so that little kids can't open the door and fall out of the car when the car is moving and allows you to lock the doors if some road rage ape like the PHucker shows up outside your car threatening you. When we were kids we used to do that with the car key, the spare was kept inside the hinged door that covered the petrol tank filler on the Zephyr estate. I guess that's OK unless someone is watching. Unlikely that they would find the car again some time later, remember what they saw and use the key to steal it. Never happened with us. Cars get stolen to order these thefts are planned. But that doesnt happen when someone has noticed one of the kids getting into the car in the car park that way. And this stuff is all academic now with modern RFID locks anyway. If yuo are stealing a car for anythig other than perhaps a joy ride you'd be watching it and teh person using it. But are very unlikely to ever see a kid using a concealed key and the kid will be in the car then anyway and will be able to call the cops on his phone you try to steal it anyway. Great when out shopping with the car in the big carparks so the kids could go off by themselves and be able to get in the car when they arrived back at the car before the driver did. I guess so but I can't work out the advantage in that. Yes, you actually are that stupid. I wouldnlt be stupid enough to hand car keys to kids telling them to go wait in the car while I shop or do anything else. Everyone goes shopping and returns to the car at different times, ****wit. Why can't the kids learn to wait for the adults to get back to the car. Corse they can, but its more convenient to be able to wait in the car, particularly in winter with outside carparks. So they are in the car with the keys Nope, just the DOOR key, not the key to ignition, ****wit. and no one will think look a car with keys, easier to steal. Cant steal the car with just the DOOR key, ****wit. If the key is left in the lock inside then you won't be able to lock the door from the outside, in fact the key won't go in the lock. But the key can be inserted on the inside well after its been locked from the outside when someone leaves the house earlier. So, how does that changes things ? It means you can't get into the house with the key, ****wit. If one is in the house, the other can ring to be let in. What happens IF that person dies or is taken seriously ill. Doesnt happen often enough to matter and the hidden key fixes that problem anyway. It does happens, Not often enough to matter. And you can always break in in the very unlikely event that that does happen. That's how I got my cat. Its how **** all get their cat. Person died in teh housbe opersite a friends, no one had seen him for 3 days and the door locked from the inside, And its completely trivial to have a decent modern alarm system which calls the relos or cops if there has been no movement for a specified time. the police had to break the door down. Not with a decent modern electronic lock that can be opened using anyone with the authority to do that. So good for security but not very good for much else. Even sillier than you usually manage, and thats saying something. and hidden keys are OK if you know where they are and can get to them. Duh. Most burlgulars have a pretty good idea where these so called secrete key places are. All academic now with decent modern electronic locks that dont need any hidden key. And no burglar is going to waste its time checking all the possible hiding places anyway, they'll just break the window silently. Last year a care for downstairs couldn't get in to help the old lady downstairs because she was bedridden so couldn't answer the door. So that person should have their own key. Hardly rocket science. They can't have their own key Corse they can. And they dont need to anyway now, just have their own RFID or have their phone authorised to unlock the door automatically when they show up. the care company would need to keep all the keys for every person that look after Nope, just have their RFID have the door open auto. And have that cancelled when they no longer work for the care operation. This is why the care company had a unitl installed on the outside of the door with a combination that you needed to type in in order to open the biox to get the key to the door, it's standard practice. Dinosaur ****. Much better to install a proper modern electronic lock that will automatically detect an authorised carer at the door and unlock automatically and ping so the occupant knows that the carer has just shown up and been let in. With no possibility of some goon smashing the box with the combination lock on it to get the key in the middle of the night. The key was in a box that had a combination lock and the carer was ? covering for someone that was off work due to ill health, her phone had just died (power wise) so she could know the care compnay to get the combination, lucmkily I was in and luckily she had an old iphone with 30 pin connector so charged her phone enough to make the call to get the combination to the key. And she would have been able to find someone with their own phone and call using that to get the combination. yes she cou,d have approached any starnger in teh street at 8pm Makes a lot more sense to knock on the door of other units in the building, ****wit. and asked to borrow thier phone and phoned from an unkiown number asking for the combination to get into a house. yes very secure. Trivially easy to secure by requiring the carer to provide a password before they get told the combination, ****wit. And none of that stupid **** is needed when the operation has enough of a clue to have a proper electronic lock installed instead of a stupid dinosaur box with a key in it anyway. reams of your **** flushed where it belongs |

Anyone else you authorise can too. And with fancy rules about when they can do that too, even to the extent of only being able to get in while you are observing what they get up to on the surveillance cameras etc. what happens if something goes wrong with the phone ?, You log on to the system with any phone you like. what if someone such as the wife or kids want to get in ? Everything from their own phone also works to the RFID that is on little kids wrist auto opens it too. And you can set it so the little kids can get in but not out too. I'm glad I don;t have such an inflexable system. You always have been a pathetic excuse for a troll. |

So anyone with the phone can get in too, Nope, the Touch ID wont work for them, stupid. well hopefully whatever security is on your phone and everyone else in the family that has it. Try that again in english, we dont read drunken goggledegook. Of course we all know phones with such security never get stolen. Doesnt matter if they are, they are no use to the thief, ****wit. And well implemented phones tell you where they are when they have been stolen too. |

It is. I built the controller and wrote the software. Presumably it stays locked when there's a power cut. Yes. One can choose that action when purchasing the item (it's a normal Yale high security lock, but the part on the door frame is replaced with the electric version.

And only the worst klutz would lose their wallet and keys at the same time anyway. If you're stupid enough to carry them around with you. I've seen wallets with keyholders and card holders built And its all academic now with decent modern electronic locks which work on RFIDs that can't get lost because it on a rugged plastic strip on your wrist etc. I haven't seen then avaible yet, I came up with that solution mote than 5 years ago for a student project. Apart from 'reward' cars all credit cards appear to be the saem size I think they call, it credit card size. But that chip and pin is pretty small buy the antennea sued ten to go around the card which is why they sometimes stop working i the card is flexed too often the antenna breaks. If you could make the antennas smaller you could even have a 'card' tattoo. But they didn;t likje my idea of us tattooing circuits on student arms or inserting circuits under students skin like we do with library books. SO don;t tell me about RFID I've been using that tech on my cats for years. You could also use it for opening front doors too, and any other doors, which is one of the problems I would have thought they could solve here, but they can't. You could even have RFID for opening car doors but currently they don't. And with kids, you can work out where they are when they havent returned home after school when they were sposed to and can see that they are round at their mate's instead etc. Yes and so can other track your kids. But of course they haven't worked it out yet, as you should know from tracking criminals they seem to need some sort of ankle braclet. Mad to never give a kid like that a key so that someone else has to always be home to let them into the house now that so many have both or the only parent working. Depends on the kid and situation. There are **** all kids where that would make any sense and it makes much more sense to have an RFID that sees the door unlock automatically when the kid shows up at the door than to have it knock on the door and have to have someone come to the door and let them in etc. But they don't do it why ? try thinking about it. if ou want to break into a house grab the kid on their way home from school simple isn't it.

Why can't the kids learn to wait for the adults to get back to the car. Corse they can, but its more convenient to be able to wait in the car, particularly in winter with outside carparks. So they are in the car with the keys Nope, just the DOOR key, not the key to ignition, ****wit. Why put them in the car why not leave them at home and are yuo saying there's no way to steal a car unless you have the ignition key. and no one will think look a car with keys, easier to steal. Cant steal the car with just the DOOR key, ****wit. People steal cars without even that, just load them up on a tralier if you really want it. If the key is left in the lock inside then you won't be able to lock the door from the outside, in fact the key won't go in the lock. But the key can be inserted on the inside well after its been locked from the outside when someone leaves the house earlier. So, how does that changes things ? It means you can't get into the house with the key, ****wit. Yes and that is the point isn't it, at last you;ve got it and in under 6 months well done. That is the advantage of leaving your key in the lock on the inside in that NO ONE can get in with a skeleton key or a copy or duplicate of your key or the key theyv stole fromk yuor kid while they were at school. This is one reason you really shouldn't give a young kid a key to your house or anything else of value. You are probbely stupid enough to give a credit card to a kid with the pin no. too. The rest of your **** flushed were it belongs. That's how I got my cat. Its how **** all get their cat. I did. Others get cats from people that have passed on. The neirgbours saw the cat at the window a number of times but hadn;t seen the owner let it out as he was regually seen pottering about in the front garden and the cat watching him. Person died in teh housbe opersite a friends, no one had seen him for 3 days and the door locked from the inside, And its completely trivial to have a decent modern alarm system which calls the relos or cops if there has been no movement for a specified time. NO such thing for most. Few people have such advanced systems and most don't work very well anyway. the police had to break the door down. Not with a decent modern electronic lock that can be opened using anyone with the authority to do that. but few spend 1000s on such a thing, especaially when renting the property, you don't go installing your own personal secutiry system, I bet you haven't got one in your tin dunny. and hidden keys are OK if you know where they are and can get to them. Duh. Most burlgulars have a pretty good idea where these so called secrete key places are. All academic now with decent modern electronic locks that dont need any hidden key. and too expensive for most that's why they don't have them. And no burglar is going to waste its time checking all the possible hiding places anyway, they'll just break the window silently. even with your multi 1000s spend on the RFID. Last year a care for downstairs couldn't get in to help the old lady downstairs because she was bedridden so couldn't answer the door. So that person should have their own key. Hardly rocket science. They can't have their own key Corse they can. And they dont need to anyway now, just have their own RFID or have their phone authorised to unlock the door automatically when they show up. You really are that stupid aren't you. Putting such things on doors is very expensive here it;s £1000 per door plus installation costs plus paying group4 some annual fee. I bet you don't have such a system, if you do tell us which one and where it can be brought. the care company would need to keep all the keys for every person that look after Nope, just have their RFID have the door open auto. Makes you wonder why it isn't done, well some of us know mostly it cost and that it;s not a very good system for such a thing, how would the ambulance service get access will, they need to carry RFID cards for every house in the area. ? They donlt even use RFID and the like in prisions or in hospitals or anywhere esle where security realy matters, I know because we have they syste=m here and it;s pretty much a waste of time and money. Your talking **** yet again, and haven't a clue so the rest of yuor **** has been sent back to wear it belongs. |

You can't get in, either because you left the house by slamming the Yale lock without having its key, or you left the house via the key lock we're talking about, and the person put their own key in the lock after you'd gone. Which is why I can unlock our front door from my mobile. Can others . No. At least, a vrowbar would be easier. It has 2FA. So no one else can get into your property ? Anyone else you authorise can too. and how do you do that, yuo havenlt a clue have you. I've just had to go down to open the doors controlled by RFID because the studetns can't get in there's something wrong and thier RFIDs aren't triggering the door, working fine yetsreday not working today. And with fancy rules about when they can do that too, even to the extent of only being able to get in while you are observing what they get up to on the surveillance cameras etc. Of course all homes have high end security cameras that can detect all sorts of things what system do you have ? what happens if something goes wrong with the phone ?, You log on to the system with any phone you like. and no one else can do that or can they ? what if someone such as the wife or kids want to get in ? Everything from their own phone also works to the RFID that is on little kids wrist auto opens it too. Nothing like that exists yet, that actually works. |

Are skeleton keys valid. ? Which would mean the lock is rubbish. If you're out of your house, how can you lock it from the inside to prevent a key being used? You can't, but when leaving the house you have to have some way of getting back in, but when already in the house you don't need a way to get in because you're already in. Leaving your key in the door when you're inside has advanatges too, such as in a fire you don't have to go find your key and neither does anyone else who might happen to be in your house. There are disadvantages too if someone broke in or could get to yuor key through the letter bix like I did once. (although) that was an advantage in my case. I thought that doors only had one key in general use, What makes you think that ? I knopw couples that have a key each some even give a key to thier kids when they are old enough. Yeah, IMO its stupid not to do it that way for all but the youngest kids. Unless you can't trust the kid for some reason The only real consideration there is that some lose things a lot and some are mindlessly paranoid about what someone else might do with a lost key. Unlikely to be much of a problem with most given that hardly anyone is likely to know what the key fits, tho I spose you could argue that if the loser is a teenager, they might have arsehole druggy mates who do. Or that they are carrying something with their name and address on it. Which is why I think it's not a good idea to walk around with a driver license, Not possible in many jurisdictions, you have to have your drivers license on you when the cops pull you over for a breath test etc. We aren't in many jurisdictions we are in the UK. And only the worst klutz would lose their wallet and keys at the same time anyway. If you're stupid enough to carry them around with you. I've seen wallets with keyholders and card holders built And its all academic now with decent modern electronic locks which work on RFIDs that can't get lost because it on a rugged plastic strip on your wrist etc. I haven't seen then avaible yet, I came up with that solution mote than 5 years ago for a student project. Apart from 'reward' cars all credit cards appear to be the saem size I think they call, it credit card size. But that chip and pin is pretty small buy the antennea sued ten to go around the card which is why they sometimes stop working i the card is flexed too often the antenna breaks. If you could make the antennas smaller you could even have a 'card' tattoo. But they didn;t likje my idea of us tattooing circuits on student arms or inserting circuits under students skin like we do with library books. SO don;t tell me about RFID I've been using that tech on my cats for years. You could also use it for opening front doors too, and any other doors, which is one of the problems I would have thought they could solve here, but they can't. You could even have RFID for opening car doors but currently they don't. And with kids, you can work out where they are when they havent returned home after school when they were sposed to and can see that they are round at their mate's instead etc. Yes and so can other track your kids. But of course they haven't worked it out yet, as you should know from tracking criminals they seem to need some sort of ankle braclet. Mad to never give a kid like that a key so that someone else has to always be home to let them into the house now that so many have both or the only parent working. Depends on the kid and situation. There are **** all kids where that would make any sense and it makes much more sense to have an RFID that sees the door unlock automatically when the kid shows up at the door than to have it knock on the door and have to have someone come to the door and let them in etc. But they don't do it why ? try thinking about it. if ou want to break into a house grab the kid on their way home from school simple isn't it. But most locks that I know of for front doors do lock when the door is closed. I think most households in the UK have this type of door. Irrelevant to what makes sense now with proper electronic locks. Very relivent as to what is avaible and at what price which are the reasons it really hasn't happened yet. which is the oppersite for car doors which anyone can open once unlocked. With car doors, the best of them have a button next to the driver so that little kids can't open the door and fall out of the car when the car is moving and allows you to lock the doors if some road rage ape like the PHucker shows up outside your car threatening you. Which just shows how useless the idea actually is because cars do get stolen even with the kids inside and why if you wanted to steal the car would you wait until the kids got in and locked the doors, just wait and the checkout for the clueless parent to hand their keys over to the kid and go take the keys from the kid just like you'd take sweets from them, far easier than car jacking from an adult at traffic lights just wait in a car park. When we were kids we used to do that with the car key, the spare was kept inside the hinged door that covered the petrol tank filler on the Zephyr estate. I guess that's OK unless someone is watching. Unlikely that they would find the car again some time later, remember what they saw and use the key to steal it. Never happened with us. Cars get stolen to order these thefts are planned. But that doesnt happen when someone has noticed one of the kids getting into the car in the car park that way. Yes it does. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...five-back.html And this stuff is all academic now with modern RFID locks anyway. yeah sure, they tell you that so they can charge a fortune. If yuo are stealing a car for anythig other than perhaps a joy ride you'd be watching it and teh person using it. But are very unlikely to ever see a kid using a concealed key and the kid will be in the car then anyway and will be able to call the cops on his phone you try to steal it anyway. The kids are on the way to the car in the car park, why wait uintil they are in the car locking the doiior, get to them as they unlock the door or before even getting in the car. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...five-back.html why didnl;t teh 5 or 8 yearold phone the police ?

Main downside with that approach tho is if the crim breaks in, it makes it a lot easier for them to get out again quickly if say you start belting the **** out of them with a baseball bat etc. And to carry items out that are too big to get through the window they came in. |

You can't get in, either because you left the house by slamming the Yale lock without having its key, where did you get that info from ? because slamming a door hard doesn't change the way it locks. or you left the house via the key lock we're talking about, and the person put their own key in the lock after you'd gone. Yep and that's part of the problem isnlt it, decide which is the more to happen. then one of them will not be able to get in - no worse than a single person forgetting to take the key with them when they leave the house via an automatically locking door.

One can get into the house using a key. Yes well done anyone can get into the house using the correct key or who is skilled enough to pick the lock. Of course. But that's the same for everyone. It's a pick-resistant lock (BS 3621) and a solid door. If that is lost or stolen, or forgotten, one can use the phone to gain entry. and if that lost key is stolen or found then anyone with that key can also get into your home. a 2FA phone will NOT stop that from happening. I never said it would. Usually it's because the key has been left inside the house by the family member concerned. If it's lost, I'd have the lock changed within half an hour. I keep a spare cylinder and keys. The family all have the same phone capability. So anyone with the phone can get in too, well hopefully whatever security is on your phone and everyone else in the family that has it. Of course we all know phones with such security never get stolen. As I pointed out before, it has 2FA. You need both secrets, and only one is on the phone. You clearly don't understand what 2FA is. I do I use it, but I wouldn't use it on my front door. But elsewhere you said you didn't.... -- My posts are my copyright and if @diy_forums or Home Owners' Hub wish to copy them they can pay me £1 a message.

Not true as a friend of mine was a locksmith and he can get through certain doors without needing to drill out the locks. He could pick them or they are master keyed,I can get in most sydney electrical meter rooms with the same key. I can get into every electrical riser cupboard in the colleg using my power riser key which is the same for everyone. These padlocks and keys were hanout out to everyone with a room with such a riser when they found out someone was climbing up the risers and breaking into offices, so everyone had to lock their riser cupboard. But security and everyone else said they should be accessable to anyone in the building that might need acess to them, so we brought 1000s of same keyed padlocks which we've had for about 7 years now without any problems. |

You can't, but when leaving the house you have to have some way of getting back in, but when already in the house you don't need a way to get in because you're already in. Leaving your key in the door when you're inside has advanatges too, such as in a fire you don't have to go find your key and neither does anyone else who might happen to be in your house. There are disadvantages too if someone broke in or could get to yuor key through the letter bix like I did once. (although) that was an advantage in my case. I thought that doors only had one key in general use, What makes you think that ? I knopw couples that have a key each some even give a key to thier kids when they are old enough. Yeah, IMO its stupid not to do it that way for all but the youngest kids. Unless you can't trust the kid for some reason The only real consideration there is that some lose things a lot and some are mindlessly paranoid about what someone else might do with a lost key. Unlikely to be much of a problem with most given that hardly anyone is likely to know what the key fits, tho I spose you could argue that if the loser is a teenager, they might have arsehole druggy mates who do. Or that they are carrying something with their name and address on it. Which is why I think it's not a good idea to walk around with a driver license, Not possible in many jurisdictions, you have to have your drivers license on you when the cops pull you over for a breath test etc. And only the worst klutz would lose their wallet and keys at the same time anyway. If you're stupid enough to carry them around with you. I've seen wallets with keyholders and card holders built Only fools like you would use one of those for the key they use multiple times a day for the front door key. And its all academic now with decent modern electronic locks which work on RFIDs that can't get lost because it on a rugged plastic strip on your wrist etc. I haven't seen then avaible yet, Only because you wanked yourself completely blind and spend so much of your time completely blotto in the gutter. A number of people have already told you that they have them in here and its completely trivial to find them even in the Apple Store on your ****ing phone, and on Amazon, Ebay, Aliexpress etc etc etc. You could even have RFID for opening car doors but currently they don't. They do actually. And with kids, you can work out where they are when they havent returned home after school when they were sposed to and can see that they are round at their mate's instead etc. Yes and so can other track your kids. Nope. as you should know from tracking criminals they seem to need some sort of ankle braclet. Nope, You can get that for tracking anything you like, your car, your bike, your pets etc etc etc. Even a terminal ****wit such as yourself should have noticed that they track wild animals world wide. Mad to never give a kid like that a key so that someone else has to always be home to let them into the house now that so many have both or the only parent working. Depends on the kid and situation. There are **** all kids where that would make any sense and it makes much more sense to have an RFID that sees the door unlock automatically when the kid shows up at the door than to have it knock on the door and have to have someone come to the door and let them in etc. But they don't do it Those with even half a clue do. if ou want to break into a house grab the kid on their way home from school Wont work when the kid hits the panic button on the device that sees the cops show up in minutes, ****wit. But most locks that I know of for front doors do lock when the door is closed. I think most households in the UK have this type of door. Irrelevant to what makes sense now with proper electronic locks. Very relivent as to what is avaible and at what price which are the reasons it really hasn't happened yet. Its trivially buyable right now. Doesnt even cost that much. In spades with the trackers that track anything you like. which is the oppersite for car doors which anyone can open once unlocked. With car doors, the best of them have a button next to the driver so that little kids can't open the door and fall out of the car when the car is moving and allows you to lock the doors if some road rage ape like the PHucker shows up outside your car threatening you. Which just shows how useless the idea actually is because cars do get stolen Those with the best alarm systems dont and are fully tracked too. When we were kids we used to do that with the car key, the spare was kept inside the hinged door that covered the petrol tank filler on the Zephyr estate. I guess that's OK unless someone is watching. Unlikely that they would find the car again some time later, remember what they saw and use the key to steal it. Never happened with us. Cars get stolen to order these thefts are planned. But that doesnt happen when someone has noticed one of the kids getting into the car in the car park that way. And this stuff is all academic now with modern RFID locks anyway. yeah sure, they tell you that so they can charge a fortune. They cost peanuts. If yuo are stealing a car for anythig other than perhaps a joy ride you'd be watching it and teh person using it. But are very unlikely to ever see a kid using a concealed key and the kid will be in the car then anyway and will be able to call the cops on his phone you try to steal it anyway. The kids are on the way to the car in the car park, why wait uintil they are in the car locking the doiior, get to them as they unlock the door or before even getting in the car. And when the kid hits the panic button, the crims are ****ed. The car wont start and all the crims can do is run off with full footage of them allowing to the cops to recognise them and chuck them in the slammer for years. I wouldnlt be stupid enough to hand car keys to kids telling them to go wait in the car while I shop or do anything else. Everyone goes shopping and returns to the car at different times, ****wit. Why ? So no one has to twiddle their thumbs when someone else is farting around doing stuff they arent interested in, ****wit. Why can't the kids learn to wait for the adults to get back to the car. Corse they can, but its more convenient to be able to wait in the car, particularly in winter with outside carparks. So they are in the car with the keys Nope, just the DOOR key, not the key to ignition, ****wit. Why put them in the car why not leave them at home and are yuo saying there's no way to steal a car unless you have the ignition key. Not when the kid has hit the panic button and the cops are pouring in to grab the crims, ****wit. and no one will think look a car with keys, easier to steal. Cant steal the car with just the DOOR key, ****wit. People steal cars without even that, just load them up on a tralier if you really want it. No time for that when the kid has hit the panic button and the cops are showing up in droves, ****wit. none of the rest of your pathetic excuse for a troll worth bothering with, all flushed where it belongs |

Nothing like that exists yet, that actually works. Even sillier and more pig ignorant than you usually manage and thats saying something.

If a couple keep one key each, then if one leaves the house taking the key with them, the problem doesn't arise. Which problem is that ? If one is in the house, IF. the other can ring to be let in. What happens IF that person dies or is taken seriously ill. If one of them does not keep the key in their pocket when they leave the house, Why wouldn;t they what do you expect tghem to do with it ? then one of them will not be able to get in - no worse than a single person forgetting to take the key with them when they leave the house via an automatically locking door. So not much use then is it. |

You can't get in, either because you left the house by slamming the Yale lock without having its key, or you left the house via the key lock we're talking about, and the person put their own key in the lock after you'd gone. Which is why I can unlock our front door from my mobile. Can others . No. At least, a vrowbar would be easier. It has 2FA. So no one else can get into your property ? what happens if something goes wrong with the phone ?, what if someone such as the wife or kids want to get in ? I'm glad I don;t have such an inflexable system. Until someone makes a mobile phone which .. can handle rain and being dropped on concrete, There are plenty of phone cases that allow that. they're unfit for purpose. Even sillier than you usually manage, and that's saying something. Mine lives inside my house. Yes, you are that terminal a ****wit. |

Those flat metal things. The family all have the same phone capability. My method is easier. An RFID tag on my wrist. I can't lose that. But you can't do anything else with it either. |

Those flat metal things. So the same problem as anyone else would have with a key from it getting lost stolen or broken. No. One can get into the house using a key. Yes well done anyone can get into the house using the correct key or who is skilled enough to pick the lock. If that is lost or stolen, or forgotten, one can use the phone to gain entry. and if that lost key is stolen or found then anyone with that key can also get into your home. a 2FA phone will NOT stop that from happening. The family all have the same phone capability. So anyone with the phone can get in too, well hopefully whatever security is on your phone and everyone else in the family that has it. Of course we all know phones with such security never get stolen. You clearly don't understand what 2FA is. I do I use it, but I wouldn't use it on my front door. Why not? Because he's a terminal ****wit too. |

Situation normal, all ****ed up. Nobody thinks before designing things. There may well be a reason - with many traditional locks you can slide a button on the inside, which prevents a key being used from the outside. The "one key prevents another being inserted" may be a deliberate feature to "replicate" this function. Never seen the point in that. I have a traditional Yale type lock and have never used that button. Why would I wish to prevent someone (probably myself) with a valid key from unlocking the door? I wouldn;t want someone breaking into my place when I was there what would be the point of them doing that unles sit was the fire brigade or a medical emergancy. People have used bolts on doors and mortice locks been locked at night for years I thought most people locked themselves in. But if the lock works properly and cannot be picked, why do you need extra steps to prevent someone with a valid key from unlocking it? What makes you so sure it's a valid key ? whatever that means. Are skeleton keys valid. ? Skeleton keys only work with simple, warded locks, only used on sheds these days. Not true as a friend of mine was a locksmith and he can get through certain doors without needing to drill out the locks. He could pick them or they are master keyed,I can get in most sydney electrical meter rooms with the same key. I can get into every electrical riser cupboard in the colleg using my power riser key which is the same for everyone. These padlocks and keys were hanout out to everyone with a room with such a riser when they found out someone was climbing up the risers and breaking into offices, so everyone had to lock their riser cupboard. But security and everyone else said they should be accessable to anyone in the building that might need acess to them, so we brought 1000s of same keyed padlocks which we've had for about 7 years now without any problems. What's in this cupboard you need to access? A fusebox? And pipes and wiring. |

I suppose no one else can use a phonme and app to get in either Corse they can't when they cant do the Touch ID on the phone or supply the passcode the phone requires to allow it to be used. Most phones don't have touch ID and if yuo forget your phone.... are you the only person in the world that can do this app and phone trick ? With that particular phone and lock, yep, you pathetic excuse for a troll. You're talking **** and donlt know much about the systems used. So what is this magic system you use ? |
