In my office there's even a door where once locked only the inside handle will open it and the outside one won't.
My apartment had door that could be locked before you left. Made worrying about whether or not I remembered to lock the door so much easier :).

The more you know.

You'd still have to remember to lock the doors

There was just one door, and all I had to do was make sure the mechanism in the knob was set to automatically lock. Which it always was.

The real problem was making sure I remembered my keys so I didn't lock myself out, which is the sort of thing you only do once, then make sure you never do again.

A door that locks itself is actually kind of cool, I guess this conversation is over now

Not just yet. Tell me: where is it you're from where the doors are not just about universally like this?

I know you didn't ask me, but my friends live in downtown Columbus, OH and all of their doors (to the outside at least) require a key to lock or unlock, even from the inside.

I don't think I am comfortable answering that question, you see, I know it doesn't really matter to anyone, but I wish to keep my identity secret.

In Central Europe (Hungary, Slovakia, Romania, etc.), doors like that are basically unheard of.

So~ what are the votes that we turn this thread into a door fanfic instead of a Misha fanfic? I mean, I love Misha and all, but those doors, man. I have never seen a doorknob so..... sexy~ before. ^-^

Well, now we know you live in a country all by yourself, I guess!

Weird. I can't remember the last time I saw a door like that.

Well in their case, it's probably for security reasons, since they live downtown and all. In most suburbs or in the country it would be entirely unnecessary.

Now can we all please stop spamming the Professor's thread before the first tempbans are handed out?
I think the original question has been answered to comrade's satisfaction.
