Interesting. I noticed my hotel door lock/knob was jiggly loose Thursday and said I could probably pull the friggin thing off if I wanted to break in. Then there was the guy sleeping in the hallway on the floor.....

Hey, that saves on hotel fees! I got a crick in my neck the last time I passed out in a hotel hallway though.

Anybody who has even a smattering of knowledge about how insecure vehicle locks are knows that building locks (except for most good deadbolts) are even less secure.
I used to be the go to guy at work whenever someone locked their keys in the vehicle. The only one I ever met that I couldn't open in 45 seconds or less without more than rudimentary tools was a 1992 V W Jetta. After that one the company bought me a vehicle entry tool set from SnapOn. Then NO vehicle was exempt from entry by me.
Building locks are so simple to bypass that with just a little training most 10 year old kids can do it.

And spun me like a top.

Do you by any chance do ceiling fans?
RE: Hotel room security - Twilla - 02-28-2010
If the ceiling is steel reinforced.

A week ago, I managed to lock myself out of my car. I normally carry a spare key in my dayrunner, but this time (of course) it wasn't in there. I was determined not to call a locksmith and I managed to get back in using a coathanger, but I did have to end up poking a hole through the rubber on the inside edge of my window.
