Another quirk I see that would need to be addressed is that there isn't a way to pull the door closed without also possibly locking it. A standard knob has two function: knob and handle.

This means handle or no handle, your pesky roomate wont be getting in. It has the "cool" factor but it is pretty pointless. The simple solution to this is have a lock on the door.

Security risk? Do you think a bathroom lock is a security risk? Please think about it. Pushed in from the outside? Possibly if designed poorly, but can easily be made not to with a simple button latch that has to be pressed in before it can be pulled. Yes, obviously this is an interior/hotel door. Regardless I could break into any interior or exterior door that Home Depot sells if I had on a sturdy shoe. This is just a slick and more complicated way of a bathroom knob's lock. In one you press a button and the knob is inoperable, and in the other you pull so that the knob is inoperable. If you want the poor man's version of this go to a hardware store and buy a $10 bathroom door knob set and install it. Then when your roommate tries to open the door and it won't turn, he/she will get the point. I wish people would think before they write in a forum.
