You know, it would really be neat to add a hook finger type inside lock, and cover up most all of the lock face with carpet, with just a slit in the carpet for a key. Then you have hidden, secure storage in an unexpected space. The lock is something like this:

Just gained me some new storage space under the steps of my BH3670. All I had to do is remove 4 screws (two from each step) and put a piano hinge on the back side of each step and fasten it to the riser and presto more room to put stuff! Maybe even a safe could go in there with a hidden locking device on the step. And perhaps a flash-bang if someone gets in there that aint supposin to.
