About classic house lock

[Kosh-Ambassador]

Hi guys. I bought a classic house. FAQ says that "house keys are not necessary. Only classic houses receive a key however players do not need to keep these keys. A player can secure their door and set access level similar to securing a container. They simple must say "I wish to secure this" and then click the door."
I secure my door by security level co-owner and i can't get into the house without a key anyway. Game says that door is locked.

What wrong?

You have to unlock the door with the key then set security. Both forms of security are active in parallel, so you have to turn off one if you want to solely use the other (in this case, unlock the door so you can use the set security feature).

I find it better (mostly because I have a small house) to lock-down the key outside on the door step, and use the classic lock so I can have 3 secure chests instead of 2. But if you have a bigger house I guess that doesn't matter.

EDIT: it doesn't take a secure slot for the door; it's specific to containers.

I figured out. Thanks GoD PaRtiCal, thats true, i just had doble click on key and open door.

@Rikket_The_Rogue hey bro, if your key is locked down outside the house, can't other people use it to open the door?

Not unless they're friended or co-owned to the house D.

So doing that is definitely much smarter than using a secure slot! Just one question, when inside the house, how will I lock the door if the key is outside ?

If you're planning on being on the house for a long period of time macroing or whatever, you're going to have to bring the key in with you I'm pretty sure.

Or just multi-account, and have a friended account lock the door for you.

You can use the key for sure, and you can lock it down on the porch, but it has no advantages over saying, 'I wish to secure this' and targeting the door.

I though doing I wish to secure this would use a secure slot from the house, but just did it on my custom house and it didn't =) ! So now everything is beautiful =) ! Thanks @Expendable and @Rikket_The_Rogue
