Today, while installing a deadbolt on my closet, I did it wrong. It closed but wouldn't lock so I had to re-install it. Sitting on the floor of my closet, I shut it to make sure it was installed correctly. I locked myself in for twenty minutes, home alone, before kicking the door down. FML

umm a deadbolt on my closet because i'm home from college and my sister steals all of my clothes. also, its not a deadbolt but like one of those doorknobs that have a key lock and when you install a new doorknob there is the piece that clicks into the wall when it shuts. I installed it backwards to decided to check and make sure it was right the 2nd time and it clicked therefore, i was locked in the closet because you install the knob after that.

Why the hell were you installing a deadbolt on a closet??

you gotta think, c'mon...you're putting a lock on a door. especially on a door that leads to nowhere (like a closet door/bathroom door), if you're going to test it, make sure you're on the side necessary for unlocking it as well as locking it.

putting a deadbolt in your closet? what exactly are you trying to hide in there?

Deadbolts go on the closet so you can lock people in there, obviously. The OP was testing to see how hard it would be to get out once you're locked in. This is why professionals lock their victims in a cellar, or something, with a padlock. Much easier that way, believe me.

why didnt you kick the door down earlier?

why on earth do you need to lock your closet?

You can totally remove the hinges with the door closed. Also, I find it funny that people are such lazy assholes that they just keep posting "Why do you need a lock on your closet?" and "How do you lock yourself in with a deadbolt?" without actually reading the previous comments, like the one where the OP actually answers those questions.

y do you need a deadbolt for a closet door??

Oh look, you came out of the closet after all. :P I don't know how you would lock yourself in the closet in the first place. This is obviously a gay joke.
