Locking it up

We thought it would be a great idea (my wife gets all the credit) to secure some space in the house with all these people passing through. Our back bedrooms, master and guest, now have deadbolt locks on the doors. The first one that I installed (right) is not as good as the second one (left). I did get one of the door drilling kits in the lock aisle, and it worked beautifully.

I know that the locks are not installed identically on each door. Big deal. Our doors are no peaches before this little project started. After the dust settles on the kitchen, we will look to upgrade our doors throughout the house. The master door is pretty warped, so that is why the deadbolt is so high - I wanted to find a spot where it would not put a lot of stress on the door when locked.

It is not something you see everyday on a bedroom door, but a deterrent and some peace of mind for us.
