Broke into my house tonight

[SnikPlosskin]

So I'm out in the back yard getting some photos of Ranger. Tomorrow he is getting his eye removed and I wanted some shots of him with both eyes. :sadangel:

He enjoyed chasing the ball and I got some nice shots. I'm too tired to post them now. We had to put our other GSD, Hanna, inside because she was getting too rough with Ranger (he had a full stomach and we keep them from going nuts after they eat).

I go to open the back door and it's locked. Hanna friggin locked us out. She knows how to open the doors, but every once in a while she screws up and hits the lock.

Come to find out, my home is damn secure.

I ended up borrowing a ladder from a neighbor and checking a second floor bathroom window. It was unlocked!

WTF. Now, I locked that window too so if it happens again, I'll have to break a window.

We will have our keys with us at all times.

[Chris Fowler]

Meant to tell you about that window. :leaving:

[Kerrmudgeon]

Snicker, snicker....Pete got locked out of his house by his dog!:roll:

[OddBall]

dog's trying to tell you something

[Stangkiller]

Hmmm, time to keep a code on one of the doors. :yesnod:

[Blademaker]

Know the deal.........My dogs hit the door lock in my truck and locked myself and my wife out.......and they were laffing about it while we frantically getting them to hit the "unlock" button on the door...........10 min later, we got back in.....rotten dogs/stupid owners....:rofl:

No house key hidden outside somewhere? No trusted neighbors to hold a key?

[Bill]

My Mom was on a spurt of locking herself out of the house. Several of her neighbors have keys, but a couple of times, I was the only one that she could reach.....about a 100 mile round trip.

Solution: key buried in a baby food jar in the back yard.

Your solution: key hidden somewhere around the house outside where you can get at it if you need it.

If you lock it, how are we going to eat your food, crap in your john and watch you getting it on?:slap:

His neighbor stole a rock in his yard.... :lol:

....and would it kill you to put the cap back on the toothpaste tube once in a while?

Tape a spare in your garage to the bottom of the cat litter box (if you have a cat) or in the bottom of a drain tub of dirty engine oil. Nobody will go looking in either place.

Nope. Don't trust any of them.

Wife wants to do that. I'm not sure. I prefer having keys with me.

Holy shit. Do you ever forget anything? :lol:

No cats. But I could shove a key up the ass of the neighbors cat. It's here all the damn time.

Couldn't get into the garage either...

Well that sucks big time.

Hide a house key in your vehicle, keep extra key for vehicle in wallet. ( you do have a wallet with you, right? )

[Mike Mercury]

we've got a wireless garage opener "keypad" that uses a digital entry code. It's saved me a couple of times.

Wallet? Check. Gun? Check. 2 mags? Check. Knife? Check. Flashlight? Check. Keys? Mother ****er!!!!

[NEED-A-VETTE]

That brings back bad memories. :funny:

Last time I locked out of my house, the hills next to the neighborhood were on fire like such...

I had no shoes on, wearing only yoga pants, a cami, but no bra. My conservative Chinese neighbor came out to watch the water dropping planes and probably couldn't figure out why I stood there crossing my arms. Tightly. The whole time.

As I'm watching the water getting dropped, I realized I had to pee. Bad. real bad. Just as I decide that maybe I'll just pee in my backyard (High walls. No harm, right?) I notice the news choppers hovering overhead. So, I continue to do the peepee dance rather than risk seeing a vid (of me peeing) land on YouTube.

Meanwhile, I had to call Nox and act all cool about it. Asking him when he's coming home. I can't tell him I've locked myself out of the house because I had just done it the week before. (He came home to me sitting...randomly...on the front porch the previous week.) When he came home, I played it off like, you know, I'm just watching the fire. That's all. But since you're going in the house, meh, I'll go in, too. :leaving:

In my defense, the front door knob/lock was broken.

No cami pics.

With kids in our house we use digital (electronic) locks. They never loose a key and can't get in nor do we ever get locked out.

It's certainly something to consider.

Ah.. Like Mike, I've got a digital keypad on the garage door frame.

:iagree:

And some of them you can put multiple codes in so you can have Friends drop off stuff then the code deactivates.

No one is getting into this thing unless they have a pocket knife, or a hammer, or a big rock, or a screwdriver.

Had to do the same to break into a neighbor's house a couple years ago. We were supposed to let their GSD out, and we have the garage door code, but the power went out. Go over, dog is barking his head off. Get a ladder, dog is barking his head off. Open the window, go downstairs, and the dog is dead silent, head tipped to the side as if to say "WTF? How did you do that?! I was barking at your azz outside a minute ago and now you're coming down the stairs!"

You lock your doors?:leaving:

Digital locks here as well. :seasix:

:confused5: You don't have locksmiths where you live?

[Jay13]

Really, digital locks and all that are nice, but you may as well hide a key in your garage and save the money for a good steel reinforced door jamb or an alarm system. Most thieves (around here anyway) won't even waste time looking for a key -- they typically just kick the door in or if they can get in the garage, they kick a hole in the drywall next to the door that is large enough for them to enter the home that way.

Prolly a little off topic to the idiot who locked himself out. :leaving:
