I keep mine both locked and unlocked. When I know people are coming, I unlock them. I have 5 parents who come within 20 minutes of each other in the morning. The parents just walk in, I prefer it that way. I welcome them to do so. I am sometimes in the middle of a feed, or a change and dont want to be interrupted. So them walking in is easier for me. If Im not expecting anyone, or notice strangers in the neighborhood, they are locked. parents just deal with it. They know, try the handle, if its locked, knock. QUIETLY at first,.. if I dont come,...louder. if its unlocked, Im expecting someone, or heard you pull up so just come on in.
