You will most likely need to watch one of these videos at least once in your lifetime... if you have kids more than once!!! You can thank me later! :)

And here I was ready to bring down the whole door. Smh

[kxzvtgu]

Yeah... the reason why I clicked is because I DOnt Have the key

My little niece locked the toddler inside the damn restroom and we all were freaking out cause it's Sunday night and no one was picking up and behold the key that you mentioned was up there. Thank you so much man!

Knowing that there is a specific position it has to be inserted was a huge help. Thank you so much. I now have all bathrooms available again.

This was so helpful, thank you! I didn't find the key, but because of your instructions I was able to find a very small screwdriver with a flat head and it worked like magic. Thanks!!!

I’ve lived in my house for over 2 years, it’s the first time this has happened, and as soon as he said “sometimes the installer leaves the keys on top of the door” I checked, and there it was 🙃

This saved my life thank you. When you showed that the workers put the u lock piece above the door, I immediately looked up and saw it. Thank you!!!

I feel like an idiot for not having figured this out. I was putting the key too far in, past the thing that stands out in the center with the groove on it. This video helped! Thanks!

Thank you, thank you, thank you I have been locked out of my spare bedroom for two weeks! I remember having locks like this on the bathroom door when I was growing up and you just had to stick something in and push and it would open. I had no idea these ones had an actual turn to unlock mechanism. First try after watching your video (of course there was no privacy key above door) I got in!! I used one of those long tiny flathead screwdrivers.

This came in handy! Could not figure out how to unlock after my kids locked their room. After learning there is a key for this I was able to steal one from another brand new door handle I had still in the package! Thanks!

Life saver dude I had no idea I had a spare just sitting there

[Divyaanka]

Thank you! You just saved me from a major panic attack! My toddler locked herself in and I was trying forever with a metal paperclip! Thank you. I found the key right on top of my door just like you said!

[adge]

THANK YOU! We had this issue today and little did I know the prior owner left the key exactly where you thought it might be!

[ghlimeycanuck]

A great help! I looked in my hole with my camera phone and see that it needed a little Phillips screwdriver. I’ve been jamming this thing with a coat hanger for 10 minutes! So appreciate the video :-)

[ThorMaximus]

I tried without success—your video showed how simple it was and did it immediately

[jaxonhall]

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR THIS!!!! Without this I would not have been able to get my door open and I did not want to call a locksmith

[krystiolsen]

Thank my baby boy was locked in I’m crying he’s crying thank you!!!!

[kodyskwarchuk]

Thx bro I used like a 5mm flathead screwdriver. Helped my grandma get back into her sewing room

[kamikaze]

This was such a great help! I used a mini flat head screwdriver and it worked like a charm!

[BrannuStudios]

For anybody reading this, tweezers work the same as the key!
