so what do emergency responders do if the safety bolt is locked on the residential door as well as the normal lock ? [View all]

It occurred to me that many people lock themselves in with both the doorknob and also the bolt knob.

So if a person routinely does that, but then needs to call first responders for some reason.... do the responders break the window in the door?

I was thinking of putting an extra house key outside in a potted plant, but I would need to put both keys there.
