Guess he means that the Lock itself is mounted from the inside having a Keyhole to acces it, 
I resolved the problem differently, I eliminated the Door, easy No door , no lock, no lockpicking !

Language is a wonderful thing. It allows us to miscommunicate with ease. Try writing it again.
Interesting.... to solve your problem, try to find it in front of your computer, it's there, even if it's hard to find! Maybe it's not even hard, but that is not really an issue.... And then put your lock outside of the door and send us a photo.

I bet you also have a way to manually unlock it from the inside, in case of a fire or some other emergency where you might need to get out quickly without a key or relying on an electronic mechanism to open it.

Do you have a front door? The lock on mine can be easily be unlocked with one hand.
Who the hell has a front-door lock that needs a key to open from the inside... unless you're running a crack house?
Lock makers seem to be very creative. They've been making locks for front doors for centuries that are not only safe but convenient to use. Even bolted and chained doors are easy to open from the inside! Isn't modern technology wonderful?

My first apartment had it like that. Had to use the key from both sides. Never understood the reasoning behind it.

Well here in Italy almost all locks works from both sides, only the new houses have a lock that can't be opened from both sides with a single key.
It was an old tradition, now things have changed and many requires a different type of lock.

True, but hotels works differently, though they introduced the keycards locks quite recently ( I mean when I say recently I'm talking about years anyway.
I think the first keycard locks here in Sardinian hotels was introduced in 1980, I think, I'm not sure so take it with a grain of salt).
Now they are more common, but a lots of houses still have the old lockers type that works from both sides.

Yeah at that time they were common for almost the majority of hotels here, for example I remember that in '94 I visited a friend in Milan and I found out he had a keycard lock in his house and he told me they changed the old one with it in 1992.
We were chatting about many things, but that detail really piqued my curiosity because it was the first I had seen out of a hotel.
