    Easy to screw closed but not open. Gotta think about it in 3 dimensions. They are used in US bathroom stalls.

      Why though? Do they think a pervert will go and unscrew doors? I’d argue the occupant would notice before it’s all unscrewed. Also, kicking it down might just be faster.

      Cool concept though, but as person who loves repairing their stuff, I must say f it.

        It’s less pervert prevention and more vandalism resistance.

          I firmly believe that without these screws, there would actually be less vandalism. Because of theft.

          Ah I understand. So like people just unscrewing things out of boredom?

        I’ve seen them used in power supplies that are not supposed to be user-servicable.

        Stops tampering. Nowadays they have learned that people have hex sets so they are moving to security hex.
