    These handles were on the residence rooms in my dorm, back in the day. Students figured out they could use coat hangers to open the doors. "Hardening" ended up just being us students who were concerned taking our door handles off, rotating them so they were vertical with the handle hanging downwards in the neutral position, and it left little for the attacker to get hold of with a wire like this.

      Genius, except door handles are locked in the horizontal position with a return spring on the FIXED vertical facia door plate, and can only be turned 90 degrees clockwise to open, but in the handles horizontal position, there is no way to turn the handle anticlockwise because there is a locking security tab to stop the handle being turned further than the horizontal.
      I could only assume that the handles were broken.

Won't be as elegant and will probably take a bit longer to find the handle, but once its hooked it's about as easy a backup entry method as it gets.

      I got locked out of my dorm room once. But the outside of the dorm was easy to climb and window was open.
      Later, a friend in the dorm got locked out of their room and asked for help. I let them in the same way.
      Dorm staff told me stop climbing the building for safety reasons. I think that they were probably just a little embarrassed about the poor security. I only used it for white hat reasons so I avoided any real trouble.

      I always find it funny how much people rely on locks. A lock is there to keep honest people honest and make common gutter trash thieves pass up that locked whatever for an easier mark.
      The only true security is a layered defense of multiple differing things. A mix of alarms, locks, cameras, guards (some apartments have a guard(s) now), multiple ways to secure valuables (safes, locked drawers, document boxes and so on) serial coded items ect.
      The goal is not to theif proof your whatever. Its to make it such a pain in the ass to steal from you they pass you up for an easier mark. Granted this can backfire and attract a much higher grade of theif. Afterall if you have a ton of security you likely also have a lot of valuable stuff in their eyes. So you also need to keep a lot of it low key enough to not scream "Valuables here!" but more "not worth my time".

    Hard barrier sweeps or caps at the bottom won't help against this tool if there's carpet (like in most hotels) - you can still easily press the tool under the door. Source: I was a hotel manager on the night shift for 10 years and unlocked 5 to 10 doors a week, every week, for guests who had someone passed out inside the room with the deadbolt latched (usually drunk). For those that might wonder how pulling the handle releases the deadbolt, in hotels (at least the ones I worked with) the deadbolt is linked to the handle being opened. It's a safety thing, so that if there's a fire or some emergency and the guest needs to evacuate the room quickly, they only have to turn the handle - no fumbling with a lock that they are unfamiliar with.

Fire codes require that all doors in public spaces unlock automatically from the inside so that nobody gets trapped in a burning building by a door that is locked. there have been cases where locked doors have led to significant loss of life in building fires, the protection of your property is secondary to preventing loss of life. i believe that the lever working in both directions is also a fire code thing, to facilitate rapid exit in a panic, but that may be an ADA thing too.

From the wide array of renovation shows from the US available here I've learned that houses have bad or fully lacking foundation, single pane windows (even in colder areas), walls have no isolation and doors are pretty much plywood with a lock and a massive gap under them, not to mention lacking heating/ac.
      Obviously these shows don't prioritize to show us well built and properly upkept houses, and there are decent houses in the US, but they seem to be "uppgrades" whereas the default option is absolute garbage.

    My wife was visiting the US from England recently, and about 2am she heard a noise outside her hotel room. She got up and walked to the door to see this tool being used to try and open the door. Thankfully she had the chain lock across the door, but she made a noise and the guy ran off. She called security and they didn't believe her. She called me (early in our morning) in a state of shock. Once I got her calmed down, and spoke to security, they reviewed the CCTV tapes and saw the guy. He had tailgated someone into the hotel, and reception were too busy on Facebook or something, so he slipped right past. He picked a random door and tried to get in. In the UK at least, almost every hotel needs a key card to be able to use the elevator, and so access to corridors is quite hard if you aren't a resident. They called the Police but there was nothing they could do. Needless to say she is now pretty scared every time she stays in a hotel by herself. Just thought I'd share that with you.

    Earlier this year I walked out of the house and closed the door as I had a visitor and I had yet put my keys in my pocket after changing clothes. After locating a piece of wire in the yard, I was surprised how easy it was to trip the latch on the door knob to get back in the house.
    Long story short, I modified the door knob to always lock after taking off for a trip and almost 200 miles away wondered if I had locked the door. Nearest friend able to check the door was 45 minutes away and that prompted the auto lock feature after taking flack over the round trip. The door also got modified to eliminate the easier ways of gaining entry without just kicking in the door instead.
    **One other note for those who are looking at door security, check the length of the screws in your door hinges and the striker plate as most are installed with what was provided with the door frame assembly. You will be surprised that they likely are only at best 2" long and not screwed into the stud behind the frame. Changing out the screws to 3"+ going directly into the stud strengthens the door assembly from a swift kick. Add a door reinforcement kit to strengthen the frame with provided plates, kicked in doors are less of a problem. Just my two cents for those who are looking to increase their safety in their home.

      In Europe most doors have a separate latch for the door handle and a deadbolt for the lock. You can push the handle all you want and only its latch disengages. Until you turn the lock, usually located right below, but sometimes completely away from the handle, the door won't open. And the lock deadbolt has no sloped edges or such so no tricks with credit card or such will help. If you can squeeze a device that can turn the lock knob inside, you may get in, but the space between the door and the threshold is usually too thin, never mind 'rubber tape', a kind of sticky tape of rubber seal that keeps the door from leaking heat outside, plus stops any foreign objects from being squeezed in.

    For a round knob, you tie strings to each end of a belt, use the coat hanger thingy to loop the string over the knob, pull until the belt is over the knob, increase pressure on both strings to get the belt to grip the knob, then use the belt to turn the knob. Not as fast, and a bit trickier, but it can work if you have a big enough gap at the bottom of the door. Or use the “key to the city” from the SWAT movie.
