      I worked in a place that was built on a vault. They used it for storage. I wouldn’t go in but they showed me, and told the tale of someone who did indeed get stuck in the vault a few years before.

      They installed a phone in there after that happened.

          They were VERY shaken up, but okay. They were in there for almost an hour. They were found when someone who was still there (working late) was like “uhhhh has anyone seen Marsha?” and nobody had, so they started searching.

          The building is large and there are six floors. The vault was in B1.

        Jeez. I’d just take the door off if I was using it for storage in a building that I assume would have other locks

      That folding ruler is the only thing preventing the door to shut close and trap you in the vault forever.

      I guess you can drill a bigger hole in the wall to escape.
