Locking your door is always better than not locking it. Especially if you are home, no matter how sufficient the screws are or are not. Most burglars would prefer not to awaken the residents by breaking the lock.

Locking your door is more effective IF the door, lockset, strikeplate and screws are sufficient to your security. Otherwise a locked door is only as secure as it's weakest link (i.e. not at all).
