We pretty much never lock the house. Unless we're inside sleeping then my wife will lock the door for some reason. And then she only locks the front door. Not the back or side.
I’m paranoid and check the locks at least 2 times by jiggling the doorknobs before leaving. I also look back at the garage door as I drive away to make sure it doesn’t open again (for whatever reason) until it’s out of my sight.
Primary residence, the door is never locked. Even when travelling out of the country, it's open. In a city of 3m+ people.
Other houses in less desirable countries have automatic locks. When the door closes, it locks. Garage door and front doors on internet control to open and verify status.
I have not used a physical key or worried about door locks for almost 20 years now.

I check if other people have locked their doors as a profession. I'm a lazy cat burglar by trade, AMA

As a professional cat burglar, what was one of your most noteworthy heists?
Greg@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 2y
I once went full meta and stole an actual cat. I think the owner was grateful because this cat is an arsehole.

Good!
I don't have a hairdryer. With 6mm hair that is not needed

If I didn't lock it, someone else will. Yep, I still live with my family.

I rarely touch the regular doors, I go out through the garage.
stoy@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 2y
But did you lock the garage?
dan1101@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 2y
