Before we moved in, someone installed our closet door with the hinges and the lock (yes, there's a lock on the closet!) on the opposite sides. To prevent someone from simply taking your locked door off, the hinge and the lock should be on the same side.

In the event they're not and you get locked out, don't tear your door down! This is how to take the door off without damaging any of the trim or the door, and without needing to take the door handle off.
