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. ? 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. |

BTW just had to let a studetn through a door with RFID so he could go to the toilet as he;s not resistared as needing to use that particular door, as it;s realy for staff only, but because of building works this is by far the closest toilet. They don;t ant to give them access as that means they'll be able to get through any staff access door in the department. and if yuo forget your phone.... You use the RFID instead. Even you should be able to manage that. What RFID ? The one any decent electronic lock works with as well as phones. Whya would yuo carry an RFID and phone, if the phone can do everything the RFID card can ? You can't even anser what setup you have. I have already, repeatedly. The problem is spare keys can cost a few quid RFID doesnt. Yeah sure so what was this setup ? You don;t know miuch about RFID do you. and the sort of setup you're talking about runs into thousands. RFID doesnt. Yes it does. Just the maglocks on the door costs a few hundred if done properly then you''ll need a comnputer deciding which doors to open with a particyular card. There's reasons why everyone hasn;t rushed out to buy them like they do iphones. And when losing an RFID cars they cost our students are charged a fiver for a replacement card. Irrelevant to what even a terminal ****wit like the PHucker can manage to find on ebay etc for much less than that. Starnge then that not many have them then.

Then there's little point in RFID to many failure points for the home user to bother with. |

But they donlt do it Those with even half a clue do. and if yuo forget your phone.... You use the RFID instead. Even you should be able to manage that. What RFID ? The one any decent electronic lock works with as well as phones. Whya would yuo carry an RFID and phone, if the phone can do everything the RFID card can ? Because the phone can die, the battery can go flat, it can be left behind somewhere, or stolen. So what's the advantage over a key ? Much harder to lose. You can't even anser what setup you have. I have already, repeatedly. The problem is spare keys can cost a few quid RFID doesnt. and the sort of setup you're talking about runs into thousands. RFID doesnt. Yes it does. Nope. Just the one electronic lock for the front door doesnt. There's reasons why everyone hasn;t rushed out to buy them like they do iphones. Yep, using the exiting key is cheaper. and replacing it is quick too. True with RFID when you have enough of a clue to get an extra one or two too. And dont try to claim that RFID is too easy to steal and use to get into the house, which they are just like any other card. Even sillier than you usually manage. The RFID can be on a plastic wrist strap like the hospitals use. Much harder to lose. You can do that with a key if you want. Nothing like as conveniently when using it daily. Which might just be why hospitals do it that way. |

Pity about little kids that don't drive cars very often at all and who have been known to walk around at times. |
