that is a great expressive pic
Ikr. Apparently the requirements only apply to new installations. Interestingly though, they replaced my last deadbolt lock with the same type of deadbolt lock after the other kid had shoved a pair of scissors into my lock, and it didn't silly then, despite the fact that that was put in the bin and replaced with a new lock
As I understand it though, the deadbolt locks aren't the problem. The problem is that they often require a dual action (unlocking the lock then opening the door handle). Don't ask me what they can't just not install a door handle - they won't elaborate. But that's what I've been told
