  Yes, I think it would be clearer if said “door with no functioning lock”.

  As I could be wrong and they literally mean doors with no locks but I’ve never seen such as toilet door.

    It didn’t even occur to me that it could mean what you said because I unfortunalety tend to be to literal to a fault and what it literally says is something else

      To be honest I air on the side of literal too, it’s just in this instance I’ve been in many cubicles that just had broken locks so I figured this might be what they mean.

        Even that is kind of interesting, I’ve seen broken toilet stall locks maybe three times in my life, all of them on a train
