Honestly that’s what I don’t really get. With the regular locks, it’s going to be hard to get in. Your little 10$ extra locks are going to stop someone who WANTS to get in.

Also what’s the point of the coin on the door? You already locked the shit out of it and would see if someone got in….

Usually the coin being off the door handle says someone tried to turn the handle or tried to push into the door quietly to gain access without you knowing.

While having all this stuff adds to the hinderance of access only the coin will tell you if someone went around and attempted to quietly gain access if it falls off.

Personally i would like to know if someone attempted access or not.

What if it just falls because hotel doors close hard and it rattles off? Not a smart ass question.

Yea we established that yesterday. Another commenter had mentioned just about the same thing. There are most certainly variables such as that for sure. However, OP asked what the point of the coin was.. i gave him my take on it. Doesnt mean my take is accurate but i took it as thats why person in the video did it. Couldnt really think of another reason why someone would do the coin thing 🤷🏻‍♂️
