Hi Carmen. First of, LOVE these door handles; Very affordable and quite elegant and modern! There is actually another Schlage handle that has the lock button in them. I THINK its this one: Schlage F40 LAT 619

No lock here. This is for closets mainly. You want the one that shows a small hole on the barrel. It's called a Privacy Lever

The lever you are asking about does not have a locking mechanism. It is used where privacy is not an issue, like a laundry room or basement door. The lever with a push button lock is Schlage F40VLAT619 Latitude Style Privacy Lever, Satin Nickel. Hope this helps:)

No, that is a passage lever for a closet or door you don't want to lock. F40 lat 625 latitude privacy lever is what you want that is perfect for an interior door you want to be able to lock without a key like a bedroom door. They are the same style one locks and one doesn't I bought them both for different applications they look and work great.

You'll probably want to buy hardware to lock it. It comes with a simple slide lock, but no real security features -- best you could do is loop something through the handles that locks, but even the handles can be unscrewed if someone was determined enough.

It comes with the keyed lock, therefore no need to buy separately. Good system and will deter the casual passer by. Will not deter the persistent individual.

No it physically blocks the door from opening. Actually someone on the outside could lock you in. Do you have a good deadbolt? The hardest part is drilling the holes, but with the right tools it's doable.

Its been a while since I bought these but as I recall, mine came with a deadbolt for each knob set. The knob with the lock on it, of course, was placed on the outside of the door. On my set, the knob on the inner knob has a little twistable part in the center that can be moved vertically or horizontally to lock or unlock the knobs. The deadbolt is keyed on both sides though. the problem with these knob sets is that, as other buyers have mentioned, anyone with an adventurous nature could buy a set and may be able to open your door with their keys. Eventhough you get max-for-min with the double set; please consider whether they are being installed on inner our outer doors. Otherwise, they were easy to install and I am no handyperson. All I used was a screwdriver. The holes were already in the door and frame, in my case. Good Luck and thanks for reading.

I did not have this problem. It sounds to me that one of these things is likely: 1. You installed it wrong and you need to take it apart to reinstall. 2. Manufacturer defect. Hopefully you did not close the door and end up on the outside, because then you will have to try sliding something in between the door to push the lock out of the way. It will move even if the door is locked.

That is correct. Make sure you buy one that is shorter than the max height of the opening of your window. If your area has a lot of bugs, make sure you get something to close all the small nooks and crannies. If you don't have built-in window screens, all these products are a pain in the ass.

I looked again at a spare brand new one that was in my garage - with that lock properly installed I don't see you circumventing it without breaking something. That latch doesn't move if in the locked position. I wish there was a way to post a picture - basically there's a tapered section of the lock assemble that slides into the gray housing - then the latch lifts and swings over the catch on the door; when the lock mechanism is pushed down that door is solidly secured. Then locking it makes it so it can't lift or open. Like I said, if that's done right, the housing won't open without you breaking some plastic either on the door or the lock itself.

This did not work for me. If you pulled hard on the door it would open; Our grandson, under two, figured it out. So I would guess there is a 50-50 chance this would work for you. My son has gone to another technique for bedroom and bathroom doors in his condo. They lock the doors from the inside while leaving the room! Their door locks allow this. They then keep a jeweler's screwdriver handy to unlock the doors when they need access. I have not found any other contraptions to child proof a door that don't require modifications.

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!

I don't understand your question. I bought two of these for some new doors i bought, They take a key to get in from the outside, but on the inside they have a latch so you don't need to lock it from the inside with a key. Is that what you're asking?

There is an extension strap that comes with the kit. It has a little plastic stopper built in. You drape that over the door and then close it. You want to find a sturdy (solid) door to do this on. The hollow ones dont seem to hold up as well. If you are uaing this at home, I recommend getting the wall or ceiling mount. Having the product is worth it! Hope this helps. Josh

I can see why. I did buy the unit bc it was alot less in $$ than the Boss. The door is so cheap on this unit! I am soooo careful when I open and close it so I don't break it. So far I'm ok but I know it will go some day. Right now I treat it like it's a fine crystal :<) My brother has one also and he uses his with the door open bc it won't shut. If you can't return it at least you know you can use it still.

I installed this lock on the entry door to my rental aprt. It came with two keys. I imgine you can take it to any locksmith or maybe Home Depot to make extras. But I did not give the key to my tenant. Instead, i set up one combination of their choosing. So there is no need to give them the key.

We had to install a separate switch to buzz them in/out from the counter and not the door. The switch we got was two extremes, flick it open, the door opens and remains open all the time, you need to switch it back in the closed position to secure (engage) the magnetic system in order to close. Unlike some other switches where u press and it opens then when the door is pushed open and closes it automatically shuts. The package does come with a a green button switch which when installed allows customers to exit on their own. The problem...you have to press, hold and open the door which is a bit confusing to some. You would have to purchase a door bell as well.

I had the same concern, but this doesn't seem to be a problem. The previous answers pretty well sum it up. Remember to buy the locks.
