So, do people who use something like this just never lock your bottom handle lock? I live in a busy city and lock both to keep my place secure. I'm not sure I would like just being able to lock the deadbolt but not the handle lock.

Having taken a lock picking course, I can say that one lock is approximately the same security as two - even after 15 minutes of instruction, with the right tools I could unlock most any standard house lock in moments.

Home door locks are a deterrent more than anything else, so I'd opt for convenience.

This is not true everywhere. For example here in Sweden the second lock is usually a lever tumbler lock or some variant thereof. Way harder to pick than pin tumbler locks. What matters is the type of lock, not the number of locks.

Oh, okay. That's actually really interesting, I had no idea. Haha Thanks! :)

My handle doesn't have a lock. I only have a deadbolt.

I also have an RFID fob to get in my building and I need to type a code in to my elevator to get to my floor, so I'm not too worried about it.

Yeah, that's not too bad but I would still be a bit worried since my place has a door that is accessible from outside. You are lucky with that sort of "double secure" entrance! Haha
