I inspected a home this week that had 1/2 pieces of plywood used as gates to prevent the children from getting into certen rooms of the home. One bedroom had a exterior dead bolt lock on the door and I was told that the key was missing. I said that I did need to see the whole interior but if i could not I would just note it in the report. I got out of the home as soon as possible. I don't think I want to know what was behind the locked door.
