In the video, Schneider can be seen pressing the keypad of his apartment building's door lock to produce a similar tune as in the popular meme. Schneider shared the video on his YouTube account with a caption that read, "Clearly I have nothing better to do with my time over here... so I changed our door code a little bit... do you think the neighbors are going to have any trouble getting in???" Schneider, who has 12.8 million subscribers on YouTube has managed to attract over 3 lakh views on the video since it was uploaded on May 4.

Schneider is receiving a lot of praise for his unique creation and the hard work that he put behind to make the video. Schneider had to first test all the keys and memorise the tune each key produces because every button on the door lock has different beep sounds. Kurt also reprogrammed the lock code before filming the video. One user commented, "Him having to memorize the exact sounds each number makes." Another wrote, "Omg it reminds me of that scene in Barbie princess charm school where they were trapped in a vault and got out because one of the girls remembered the sound of the code."
