My New Lock

I am so excited about this lock I got a few weeks ago! It is a new Schlage electronic keypad lock, and it is protecting my DVD collection. My children are notorious for getting into themovie closet and rifling through things and pulling out discs and scratching them. It has been a huge battle to keep them away from Jonas, but we have finally succeeded!

Before trying this lock we have had childproof latches ( a joke with Jonas), we’ve turned the standard doorknob around and kept a mini screwdriver on the door moulding to pop the lock (Q-tips make excellent lock poppers too; Jonas taught me that), and nothing ever worked. Now THIS WORKS! He is desperate to learn the four digit code. I am very careful not to let him see it, and no one has given in to his pleading and well reasoned six year old arguements. Finally, my space is my space. If they made these for the refridgerator, I’d die from happiness!

  1. What a brilliant idea, now to see if I can get them here in the UK…

  3. Have you tried super gluing the parts to the refrigerator locks that go on top? It works pretty well. Ever since the super glue, Jackie cannot open the frige anymore, and even with a chair, she isn’t tall enough to reach the lock. Just a thought.
