How to unlock this door?
I closed the door last night and somehow when I went to open the door this morning it’s locked. Might be jammed not sure??
I’ve got a bunch of the door knobs that haven’t been installed but none of the keys work (maybe stupud but thought worth a try!) I’ve also found this flat thing which I googled as I thought it could be an emergency key but doesn’t do anything. The set of keys that open the door are locked inside the room unfortunately! Any help would be hugely appreciated!!! Thank you !
Pocket dpors- worth it or not?
Hi everyone! Anyone having issues with pocket doors, that are uncomfortably no-sound-proof? In what extent is the sound proofness there? I have a powder room where I wish to place a pocket door as the room is small and it opens up to a corridor/hallway. The contractor says that the pocket doors are not soundproof compared to a normal door. But as the hallway is narrow it becomes a safety issue (blocking path of travel) to have a swing door.
