That's right, you settler buildin', secret hidin', sons of guns. Get out your best bobby pin because it's time for LOCKSMITH. Sick and tired of having settlers walk in on you while you're going Ol' Number Two in the loo? Don't want anybody to know about that secret copy of the Lusty Argonian Maid you have hidden away in a safe? Well, worry no more! With LOCKSMITH, you can now lock any door or container you wish (provided that the door/container was not locked already)! Still on the fence about downloading this mod?
