So, in my previous post I had talked about securing everything with locks. Specifically key-pad locks. Well, I believe my little family should own stock in Schlage, because just like Frank's Red Hot Sauce, we put that sh*t on everything.
What we love about Schlage products.
Ease of installation, ease of use, they just look good and they are sturdy. We have tried other manufacturers and they have been complicated at installation or there was a step to remember to activate as you leave each time. Some just seemed...flimsy(?) I guess is the word or like something I would give a kid to play with, you know, toy-like.
Again, we know most people use them externally, however for the safety of Middle Boy and the sanity/happiness of the rest of the family, we use them on internal doors. The other great thing? We can give the teens privacy while maintaining a parental override on these locks as well, thanks again to Schlage. I have a sneaky suspicion someone might be a parent on their development team.
Safety features: meds behind locked doors, anything we think he might think is "fun" but is actually harmful.
Happiness features: toilet paper can be left out, shampoo and conditioner can be left out. We can control the food/snack situation for Middle, because in true teen fashion, he would eat his weight in junk food if we let him.
So here are some pictures of our happy safe doors.
Well, that's our craziness for the day.
