About this sound

Locked up tight, nobody's getting in here tonight

This is a door getting locked. You hear two turns of the lock in about three and a half seconds, with a short pause in between. You can hear it move, catch and settle. Good for somebody locking up for the night.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • There's 0.41 s of quiet before the sound starts. Trim that off if it has to land right on a cut, a hit or a button press.
  • It gets loudest 1.22 s after it starts (1.63 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
  • It's −22.8 LUFS, about 5 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
