bathroom lock
« on: 03 March 2011, 23:17:12 »

just saw an ad on telly where a new bathroom installed and the best being the bathroom lock.

is there many households where they dont bother or have working bathroom locks??

the house i bought 3 years ago from a french woman not only had no locks but lightweight folding doors on every bog room.
(room for a proper door not an issue?) :-?

We haven't got a lock on the bathroom door... Took the pin out a few years back when we had a little person staying and put it "somewhere safe" ::) :D

Golden rule here... If the door's shut, it's occupied ;)

Did any other Top Gear presenters stay over or was it just Hammond ?  :D

 I fit bathrooms - &  thinking about it most proper bathroom locks are able to be opened from outside the door nowadays.

 They usually now have a slot to open with a flat  blade screwdriver for emergencies I suppose ( child getting locked in or adult being unwell etc,) Could also be a health & saftey issue now I suppose.

In my house locks are fitted to both main bathroom &.downstairs loo.

SWMBO would not have it any other way -  ;D ;D

She is easily embarressed :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

Remember that other fairly recent ad where the wife is in the bath & her husband comes barging in saying " sorry couldn't wait"  & proceeds to sit down for a N0.2  - :o :o :o :o

 Just can't see that happening here -
  she would divorce me i recon  ;D ;D ;D ;D

We have a seperate bathroom and WC. The missus 'I want you to knock the wall down and make it into one, bigger room'.

I said 'No, you don't, you really don't'. ;D

Growing up there were never locks on the bathroom doors - as someone said, if it's shut, someone is in there.

We also had folding doors on the bathrooms.. but then the bathrooms were pretty small.

In my house, now, there are locks - but the doors were hung in the 1970s by the original owners ;) I don't use them (largely because there's only me there)..

But I do wish the bathroom door upstairs didn't intrude so much into the room - might fit a pocket door when I rearrange the walls..

I've always grown up in a house where we had a lock on the bathroom door and can't 'relax' if there isn't one - which is why I put one on the door when I got married. Plus, my kids don't worry about the 'if it's shut, it's occupied' rule, they just come barging in anyway  ;D

My missus and 2 of her sons are both bafflingly precious about no.2's - they'll all 'hang-on' to them all day until the sanctuary of home is reached!
For my part, I have no embarrassment whatsoever about toilet activities, and would only ever even shut (let alone lock) the door if we had visitors.
Even the Queen has to curl one down every day, after all..... ;D

I'm a bit like that - I hate dropping a log somewhere other than home.. no idea why.

The last bit did raise a laugh, though ;D
