My granddaughter just started walking, into everything when she's here, tie this lock that, I find my slippers in the cupboard. Trying to find a better way to keep her from opening the cellar door which leads to outside, if she opens door, one step tumble tumble.......Wife comes up with the old butter knife in the door jam trick, usually she only uses them for screwdrivers but now I see a huge problem on the horizon, granddaughter shows up in the afternoon to be watched for awhile, wife throws a butter knife in the door, decides to visit her friends for show and tell, locks the front door, I come home from work and cant get in unless the butter knife bends or the door jam breaks or both, ugh.......
I need something for a deadbolt that can be installed on a 1-1/4" inside wooden door that opens in, I bought one like this>> Ideal Security Inc. SKGLKW Keyed Deadbolt, White - Door Dead Bolts - Amazon.com
Problem is these only work right for doors that open out so the door wont hit the latch plate, when a door opens in the door will hit the plate. The other deadbolts I see are made for 1-3/8" and thicker doors, my inside door is 1-1/4", looking for some ideas after working all day not in the mood to bend butter knives.....
The other grandaughter will be walking next year.....where will she put my slippers............
