slockwooxx Posted October 11, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I have seen some comments about doors opening in the night on Viking ships. Does anyone know if the new longboats have dead bolts that you can engage while in your room? Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjscott Posted October 12, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 12, 2012 We were on the Idun this past April. The new longboats do indeed have deadbolts, but may have to kind of push on the door to make sure it is shut and then secure the deadbolt. I think that may have been the problem with those that had issues. We had a couple of times where, upon leaving our cabin, we were sure we pulled our door shut, only to find it open again. You really need to pull hard and then push against it to make sure it is closed securely. It's like some of the locks needed an extra "click" to engage.
