The outside of those kind of doors pretty much universally, operate from the outside with a key. There may be some edge cases I'm not thinking about but they wouldn't apply to a living space.

That specific type of lock doesnt use a key, they just have a spring loaded bolt (? sorry, dont know terminology in english) and no real locking mechanism. Thats what the deadbolt on top is for
