I have a ramp back door on my CTC and will be installing gate latches to lock from the inside. That opens up a huge escape route if I can't get to the door. That doesn't stop someone from pulling a prank and locking me in with the outside bar locks though. I do have a big window that opens though.

LOLROTF, right now my ditigal lock with back up key - BROKE ON THE MECHANISM, can't open door from inside or outside even with the key or thumb latch, lucky I was on the outside when it happened because my door is reinforced & it's not easy to remove lock from the interior as it has 4 screws. There is not even a widow to kick out

:x :? :x :? :frightened:

I had friends of my parents killed in a mobile home fire. I believe they were trapped and had no way to escape. That event has always been on my mind and perhaps why I am overly cautious about an escape route....who knows? I have a large window which I could "kick" or just push out as the case may require.
