Some posters just don't bother to read carefully, and then imagine you are claiming something that you are not, which then allows them to cling on to whatever fantasy they wish to believe in.
McCarthy would have known that his rooms had keys, so if he didn't know that Kelly's key had been lost, he might have assumed the killer had used it to lock the door when he left, which would have left it unable to be opened from either side without the key, making it necessary to use force.
It may not have occurred to anyone but Joe Barnett, who knew the key was lost, that the door could only now be locked to those on the outside, but could be unlocked without a key from the inside, by reaching through the window, which is what he had to do on occasions when either he or Kelly had forgotten to leave it on the latch on their way out. I doubt Kelly would have been happy risking her arms on that broken glass, and there wasn't much in there worth stealing, so after Barnett moved out she was probably more careful to leave it on the latch when she went out, only locking herself in on her return.
Love,
