Getting Locked Out by Your Schlage® Locks?

If you have Schlage® locks, you have noticed they will allow you to open the door from the inside while they remain locked. This is considered a "panic-free" design. Great for when you have to get out in an emergency - you don't have to fumble with the lock to get out quickly, but as many have realized - if you're not careful, you can easily get locked out. We appreciate the business these locks provide - a simple trip to the mailbox or a quick walk with the dog can often leave someone locked out if they didn't realize the knob was still in the locked position. But Altic Lock Service can fix this! We can change the operation of the lock so that when the interior knob is turned, the exterior knob will unlock. The lock itself, does not need to be replaced. A small price to pay to prevent accidentally locking yourself out of the house!
