Will this door knob stay unlocked when I turn knob to open? (so that if any one goes out onto the terrace they can't get locked out?)

It's like any other indoor lock system. You can have it locked or unlocked at all times.

The 730J 15 CP Is a locking door knob that would be used on a bathroom/bedroom door. I believe the CP720J 501 is the knob that won't lock, as you'd want on a closet/passage door.

It's like any door knob lock. If you shut it in the open position, you won't be locked out. You can shut it in the locked position also. It's actually an interior knob for bedrooms and baths. It has the little hole on the outside that you can pick to open it if you accidentally get locked out. It replaced a knob that was on my son's door for 14 years. I had to pick it so many times when he was younger that it finally broke. LOL I have a different kind on my front door. You have to use the key to open it if it's locked. We leave the key in it. If we want to go out, we just turn the key to open it. You can't get locked out. It will stay unlocked until you turn the key again from the inside to the lock position. It's not a knob, but has a handle. It's the kind you use your thumb to depress it and push. LOL, sometimes I forget to lock it back, but I live in a very rural area.

If you don't use it as directed, yes you can damage your door knob... I marked my floor where the Buddy Bar is susposed to go this way I know exactly where it goes,every time, preventing damage... Toni..

Hello, I haven't experienced this issue, the only time the door relocks is when I close the door. It sounds like you may have a defective door lock.

If you lock from inside you will unable the sistem to be opened from outside. From inside you don,t need to unlock the sistem to open the door, only move the handle down.

There should be a ring round intention in the sliding glass door handle. Use a small socket and knock it out of the handle. That's where the lock goes.

Yes, There is an access key pin that comes with the knob. You put it in the hole that you see in the picture and it unlocks the door.

The gate will stay open. It does not automatically spring shut. You have to close it manually. There is no bar to step over. The entire gate swings open and shut. We are happy with this gate- one of the nicer looking and made. Hope that helps.

I never opened the lock from the inside of thats what you mean. Asthetics are ok. Nothing to write home about. No, it cannot be set up to be open sometimes. Its is locked all the time. I dont know if it can be used outside. Both mine are inside.

anytime you close the door it is locked this means no one from the outside can get in without the code now if your on the inside it will open with handle so if what your asking can you lock it from the inside the answer is no

Mine re-locks after a time out. When I leave, I just close the door and it's locked.

Yes. This lock is separate from the door knob, so you can keep or use whichever door knob you prefer.

The lock does not physically lock or unlock itself at all. It provides the ability for the *person* to provide the turning of the knob to lock or unlock from the outside. Without punching in the correct code, the outside knob just spins freely - it won't unlock. That said, if the lock is locked, and you punch in the correct code from the outside but don't turn the knob, it will automatically revert back to a free spinning knob in a few seconds - essentially keeping the door locked. If you are looking for it to automatically lock behind you after you close the door, this lock will not do that - it's designed to have the person do the turning of the lock knob to lock or unlock it.

There is a lock switch inside of the knob from the inside. By turning that switch you can lock/unlock the door.

with this particular lock, yes you can. it uses a skeleton key, not a lock lever or button you see on the modern door knobs. so, to lock the door, you need to use the key which means - don't loose it. if you have children, you may not want to keep it in the lock like i do (live my my self). so in short, you close the door, turn the key and it's locked.

The knobs are not lockable. They are durable on our closet doors which does not need to be locked. Perhaps you could have a lock and use these knobs as pulls. I hope that was helpful.

Yes it does, and it's a simple push of a button and to unlock you just simply turn the knob. There is also a push pin to unlock it from the outside for safety.

Dorothy, your question doesn't make sense. This unit IS a deadbolt. How could you "use" it without it still being a deadbolt? Would you set it to *unlocked mode* and just use it as a $110 doorknob? Why not just use the doorknob instead? Or are you debating on whether to have TWO deadbolts instead of one? Why?
