Sorry if this is an obvious question but since it's the main entrance, you already have a key, right? You already have the means to lock and unlock this door in a childproof way from both sides. Usually childproof locks are for pantry doors and such.
How come you need an extra layer of locking for the main door?
The current lock is a simple toggle. My autistic child loves to play with switches/nobs/wheels ect so he will be able to easily open the lock and pull open the door. There is nothing I can find to stop him from access to the toggle without blocking access from unlocking from the other side of the door
sounds like a door on the side of a trailer or some such. people live and raise kids in a wide variety of environments.
Yes I’m in a trailer and it’s a stupid door that the Manufacturer put in to “add more natural light” if I have to stay in this trailer for more than a year I’ll take it out and put in an actual door
I'm on your side friend. Your goals are true. Sorry I still don't know the answer.
Hm...I don't think I've heard of trailers having sliding glass doors for the entrance. But I'm really curious as to what this looks like. I've never heard of anyone having a sliding glass door for their main entrance, trailer or not. I'm trying to picture how that locks and unlocks.
Lol. I haven't seen sliding glass doors on trailers either, but I have seen a house with a main sliding glass door. That house also had a regular door on the side, but it was far easier to use the sliding one especially when accessing the property from the street.
I'm not endorsing it, but it definitely happens. It's like this: measure twice. cut once, or more than once. Put door in hole. Fill gaps with whatever caulk gun or whatever. ...
