Bathroom locks

[Anybody]

At our new house the bathroom door has this lock that has the screws on the inside, and I always wonder how would you get someone out of the bathroom without breaking the door. I've recently moved and at our old place the lock had this mechanism that it was open-able from the outside with a special key.

I once locked my self in the bathroom when I was in kindergarten and I've had this fear of locking my self in there again, which is kind of irrational since I am now old enough the get out of there on my own.

When the head of the screw is inside the bathroom so that it can only be dismantled from the inside, where, in most cases are no screwdrivers.

Typically interior doors will have some way of opening a lock. For example, all the doors that lock in our house are of the "push button on locking side of door to lock" variety, and there is a very small hole on the locked side of the door, just large enough to allow a coat hanger diameter piece of matter through that if you push in, it will open the door.

mine has a keyhole but there's no key

Use a flat head screwdriver, or a coin

Why would you want people to open the door while you were on the toilet?

Sadly I've not come across a proper bathroom lock for over a year, so I've had to put up with greeting people as they walk in.

You could always buy new door knobs for your bathroom you know.
Here is a nice one from amazon.

Door knobs are an American phenomenon, I've never seen one anywhere in Finland, ever.
