Pintooooo! Yung pintoooo isara nyoooo! Lalabas ang aircon!! este ang lamig ng aircon!! Yung pinto pleaaaseeeee

When was the last time you screamed for the door? Never? aba swerte mo! Here, whatever I say, they always forgot closing the door.. or baka may door closer ang pinto ninyo?

In most hotels we stayed, may ganito eh, but only during our Ace Hardware trip that I got to learn how useful and how much I need this kind of door essential in my life. Bigyan nyo ako ng sampung dosena pleaseee!

Anne of Ace Hardware (Robinsons Galleria) was the one who told me about door closer. She’s very helpful din about door locks and dead bolts. We need a few dead bolts kase for our house and she explained in details which lock is best for our house.

These kind of locks are used for gates pala.. parang ganito ang lock ng bahay ng lola ko nung araw?!? No wonder hirap na hirap ako isara noon ang pinto sa bahay ng lola ko LOL

These are the locks that we need:

Eh dalawang klase pala ito..

Dead Bolt Single Cylinder and Dead Bolt Double Cylinder

Sabi ni ate ____ mainamn ilagay ang Dead Bolt Double Cylinder if the door is near any window. The double cylinder kase needs a key to be opened in both sides. The single cylinder only needs key when you open it from outside. These dead bolts were less than 1000 PhP each.

 

Yale’s locks and dead bolts are our only choice talaga..parang kase when it comes to locks, it should be Yale. It’s one of oldest name in the lock industry di ba? Sabi din ni atey from Ace Hardware, Yale locks are hard to pick and can’t be sawed because of the materials that it’s made. And if you’re planning to get Yale locks and dead bolts for all your doors, you can request for the one key. One key to rule them all.. One key to unlock them all. It’s a nice option? Pero scary pag nakuha ng iba! But I like the idea of one key. What do you think?

Sa mga new home owners, what kind of security measures you apply on your doors?
