HOW TO LOCK YOUR FRONT DOOR IF YOU CAN’T FIND THE KEY: THE FORK METHOD

How To Put It Into Practice

To put the fork method into practice you will need, in addition to the toothed cutlery: a hammer, pliers or a long nail . You could even recreate your own custom latch simply by using cutlery.

The first thing to do is place the fork where the door closes. Then, with the help of a pen or marker, mark the teeth of the cutlery. The hammer will be used to bend the teeth of the cutlery to 90 degrees inside the slot in the door. The long nail will have to be placed between the teeth to secure everything.

If you don’t have a knife , you can press the tines of the fork on a table or with the help of your feet. The handle will need to be broken where it is thinnest. In this way, privacy problems can be solved in rooms such as the bathroom and bedroom, in holiday or shared homes.

To ensure that our homes and properties are protected it is essential to use high quality, up-to-date locks.
