  Are there people out there who sell locks that aren't purposefully bad?

    you ask great questions about power! and yes. though you'll generally find the lock isn't the interesting bit, reinforcing the door frame and door and putting pins at the top/bottom and side is how its done. otherwise 25 dollars at TSC for a fence post driver will make 95% of residential entryways irrelevant.
