Question:

How common was for people in the middle ages to lock up their home door, at night?

I saw an old house, in Portugal countryside. It is beautiful, far away in the country, next to an tiny tiny village. The interesting thing about this house is that it is not a box. It has a courtyard and it goes around this courtyard. Rooms all face the courtyard so that there is a real mixture of outdoor and indoor. The problem is how do you bold a house like this. Each room would have to be locked, every night. It's serious work. SO this lead me to think:but what did people in the middle ages do? Would they really lock themselves up?When have we started doing it?I imagine a rich merchant in a city would.And aristocracy would have servants and guards.But the commoners?Anybody knows?It looks like if you can be free of the need to lock yourself up, the house has many more architectural possibilities.

I looked at the Target Audience if you're none of those haven't taken any previous computer courses this doesn't look like Computers 101.
The side walk boxes are almost 4 ft each so figure at least 3 boxes from the pump
Yes there is! Here is a fun thing that actually works and can be used in emergencies, too. You will need these items: ~Safety goggles and old cloths ~Bottle ~Bottle cap ~Toilet paper ~Baking soda ~Vinegar ~Water ~Water hose (just in case) ~Empty cereal box ~Lighter Step 1) Drill a hole in the bottle cap that is about 3/16 of an inch. Step 2) Fill about 3 inches of vinegar into the bottle (regular water bottle, can use more for bigger bottle) Step 3) Fill the rest of the bottle with water until you have about 3.5 or 4 inches of room left in the bottle Step 4) Tear off 2 squares of toilet paper Step 5) Put about 2 tablespoons of baking soda on the toilet paper squares and make sure there is not a ton in the middle Step 6) Roll the toilet paper squares and fold the ends together upward so that you have a sac-like shape (do not squeeze together). Work the baking soda so that it is folded in half. Step 7) Put the sac of baking soda with the ends through the hole in the cap. make sure it is well in the hole of the CAP Step 8) Use the water hose to wet the pavement. Put a cereal box or something small and cardboard and put it on the wet pavement. On the top, light the box. Be sure to be away from other flammable objects and do only outside. Step 9) Screw the cap on the bottle. Shake the bottle and point at fire. It will send a stream of foam that will extinguish the flames. AGAIN, wet the pavement and stay away from grass, cars, house, etc. Keep the water hose next to you just in case. WEAR CLOTHS THAT YOU DON'T WANT RUINED AND SAFETY GOGGLES JUST IN CASE. This is not invented by me, I was taught this doing an experiment in science class.
