PRIME-LINEU 10321 Flip Action Door Lock – Reversible Bronze Privacy Lock with Anti-Lock Out Screw for Child Safe Mode, 2-3/4” (Single Pack)

Just what we needed! Our two-year-old was outmuscling any childproofing device we put on our lever door handle, was constantly trying to bolt to fulfill his obsession with "OUT!!!!", and would've kept succeeding had we not kept eyes and ears on him. We really wanted something that served as a physical barrier that he couldn't outmaneuver, and the fact that our front door itself is hollow set some limitations to what we could attach to it. He prived himself able to defeat anything adhesive. An acquaintance with a kid the same age suggested this with glowing reviews. It attaches to the frame, not the door, so that makes it doable here. We placed it high enough that our older kids (7 and 10) can just reach it, but it's far too high for the toddler. It's easy for them and us adults to operate quickly, but again, not something I think the little guy could could sort out easily even if he could reach it. It gives us a huge peace of mind to feel like we have an extra layer of protection that goes further than eyes and ears to keep the persistent Houdini kept inside. I mean, in a perfect world, we could literally stop him ourselves 24/7, but it's nice to have a little backup prevention for moments like when I'm in the shower, running laundry through in the basement, or in case he walks up in the morning before the alarm goes off, etc. Installation with quick and simple.

These are exactly what I needed!

I had one of these at my previous home to keep the pets from pushing the bedroom door open. I bought this set because an idiot put in my front door and it didn't latch and the deadbolt didn't line up so I couldn't lock my door until I got a new handyman here. Good luck getting anyone to show up these days. These were perfect. Screw it into the jam, flip it over, and the door stays shut. I am going to paint them white but that is just a personal preference.Just a note, these would also be perfect for keeping kids from walking in, if you know what I mean.

I have used these locks for years. I know that it will give me added noise to draw my attention if someone is trying to break in. Got them for my daughter. So easy to install.

Used this to "lock" a bathroom closet to store cleaning products, medicine, nail polish, etc. away from young kids. It's easy to open for us and so far (a few years) has kept kids out. This is not a true lock - all you have to do is lift and then flip it to open, so if your kid is hellbent on getting in and they play with it long enough they'll figure it out. We don't have a chair anywhere near this closet and we put it really high up - almost to the top of the door frame - so it's not easy to reach... plus when I open it with kids in the room I cover it with my hand so they don't see how I do it. With that said, if I had an older kid I was concerned about taking prescription drugs or something like that, I'd go for something with a key. Another plus is it does minimal damage so when you want to remove it, you'll just have to fill a few holes inside the door frame which won't be noticeable.

I didn't use this as front door security like some of the other reviews here. These went on my closets as an alternative to knob covers... and let me tell you, this thing is sooooo much easier to operate! Just install it at eye level and out far enough that it flips back and forth easily. Yes you will drill a couple little holes into your door jamb, but they're out of sight and don't require notching out your trim. Unlike the "wobble knobs" as we call them, a kid *can't* figure this out and open the door, because it's up out of reach. They also *can't* jimmy them open, as the latch panel falls into a slot that locks it in place. Bonus, they *look* nice too.There's a little set screw that you can insert into the top hole, which prevents this from locking should you need to "deactivate" it. That'll be useful when this kid is grown and we don't need to lock the closets (we could uninstall them too, but hey, maybe there's a #3 in the future?)I bought two at first - one for the hall closet and one for the utility/furnace room - and liked them so much I bought 3 more for the rest of the closets in the house. Heavy duty toddler proofing!

The media could not be loaded. The lift lock doesn't sit flush to the door but gets the job done? I purchased this because my cats like to get into my closet and installing a door knob wasn't an option since it's a hollow door, I purchase this as a hopeful alternative. The quality of the lock that I received is questionable as it doesn't sit flush to the closet door like I was expecting, which really bothers me. However, even though the lift latch is visibly very angled and loose, it still prevents the door from being opened, so that's good. It was also very quick to install, another plus.

The only purpose we purchased these for was for our toddler. He’s at the point where he can unlock and open the doors to go outside. We needed something to keep the doors locked. These were perfect! They are cheap but durable and super easy to install. He’s pretty rough with trying to get the doors opened and these have withstood it. I’d highly recommend for anyone needing extra security for keeping the doors locked for littles.Side note: I would not necessarily recommend if your looking for home security to keep people for breaking In. I don’t know if these would actually withstand something like that.
