Probably best used to keep children out, many adults would just bash it with a hammer, or a rock, or a brick or skillet, or a shoe, or pop the hinge with a screwdriver, or saw it open, or prybar it off, or pour gasoline on and light it, or a torch, or use an electric carving knife, or drill through the lock latch, or put a hole saw in the drill to drop a firecracker in, or throw lawn jarts at it, or just pick the lock, set the thermostat where you want it, then superglue it shut.

In other words, buy at least two!

Too cold? Tape the vents shut and place an ice cube on top.

This is most likely for an office or other "monitored" area.... Though I'd live to see some jart-action goin' on at the office. 🎯
