Bathroom installation: How does it lock from the inside? Can someone unlock it with the code when I'm still inside?

Yes. It locks like a regular deadbolt from the inside. It's quick and easy, but it can always be unlocked with the correct code from the outside.

It locks with the turn of a knob. Yes, it can be opened with the code while someone is inside.

Yes. If they have the code, they can open the door unless you have another lock on the inside.

The picture of the locks shows both sides of the door. One side has the keypad to open the door, while the other is like a normal door knob with a lock on the knob and a bolt above it. I am not sure how you are using for a bathroom, but if someone knows the code, yes they will be able to open this lock. On my outside doors, I have additional bolts above this door knob system. Since its separate, If I put that bolt on, you cannot get in without a key. I only use it at night. I hope that helps.

I haven't tried to lock it from the outside when it's in unlock mode, but it would make sense to me that you'd have to do this from the inside, since the knob that changes it to unlock mode is a mechanical knob.

No , it's a safety lock to keep people from going out or people coming in. Can only be accessed from the inside.

I called on this and they told me that if you use the code to unlock the door, it will auto lock itself. However, if you use the Unlock button on the inside, it will stay unlocked until you re-lock it. What I do not like, however, is that there is no indicator of whether it's locked or unlocked, so you have to push the button to know for sure.

It is a complete handle set for bathroom / closet door. i.e it has two handles to open the door from either side. The bathroom option has a lever / button that allows the person to lock the door from inside.

No code required to lock; just turn the knob. One of my doors (I have 3) is off a bit, so I have to push against the door to get the bolt to engage with the hole in the door frame. That has nothing to do with the lock mechanism, but rather, the installation. Take care in your alignment.

No. It locks whenever engaged. You always have to input the code. I used it on an interior door but It stopped working for me after 2 weeks. I spent a total of $20 in postage to receive and return. It is very heavy. I was give credit but it was a net loss of $20 for postage. I now have an extra hole in my door. I haven't replaced it with anything yet.

1. You can't lock it from the inside. It opens as a normal door. You would need to add a deadbolt. I don't use anything else.2. No. It's always locked to someone in the outside, and always open to someone in the inside.3. Yes.

When I had the same problem, it was because I put it on in reverse: I set it up for a right-hand door when it was a left hand door. When it is on correctly, you just twist the nob toward the door jamb to lock. Code only needed to open,

No. The inside knob has a latch to lock and unlock. A 1/4 turn of the latch will lock and unlock this door lock.

For a Bathroom or room is perfect as you can lock it from one side. If looking for a lock with key, NO. We are using them and they are great

I don't think you can really lock from the inside: there is a button and a small lever that they can easily push/rotate to unlock and get out. Lever is mechanical and can not be locked or prevented from rotating. It is a fine lock, though, and fit and finish are superb

There is a hole for a padlock. The install takes about an hour or two depending on how everything comes off.

thanks for asking. ours have a turn lock on the inside (like found on a bedroom or bathroom knob) on the out side there is a small hold and they include a "key" like thing that looks like the "key" that use to be on top of a can of spam. (if you are old enough to remember those) it is in the shape of a capital T. So while it is not officially unlocked from the outside should our two year old accidentally lock himself in the bathroom I have placed the "T-Key" on the top of the door casing/framing so it is always there. hope this helps. They have performed outstanding for us. thanks for asking. ours have a turn lock on the inside (like found on a bedroom or bathroom knob) on the out side there is a small hold and they include a "key" like thing that looks like the "key" that use to be on top of a can of spam.

This one is mostly for bathrooms. You can lock from inside and the opposite side has just a small hole for an emergency key entry incase it's needed

The current version of these locks come with pre-programmed codes. One for the owner and 2 different ones for 'users'. These are printed in the manual and on a easily removed sticker inside the lock.All codes can quickly be changed, over and over. Some of the home automation and security systems, Wink, Iris, etc, allow you to make those changes remotely.Seems that set up may be useful for landlords, cleaning crew, etc

You do need to lock this particular one from the inside, but you in locked mode you can still egress without doing anything, in other words the door locks on its own. I can't think of a situation where I would need to lock it from the outside. The dead bolt style you can lock from the outside. Hope that helps!
