The current lock is a simple toggle. My autistic child loves to play with switches/nobs/wheels ect so he will be able to easily open the lock and pull open the door. There is nothing I can find to stop him from access to the toggle without blocking access from unlocking from the other side of the door

Yes this is why I need it to be accessible on both sides of the door. 1 for emergency access and 2 so I and my partner can unlock it coming home from work if the other is sleeping edit added missing word

The current lock just latches onto a small metal bar… if someone pulled hard enough it would just bend open.

This is an option however Ill be moving beside a river and my child is autistic so a lock would be best if I can figure out a way to do it

I’ll look at cross posting thanks for the advice!

I like this idea and it could work well. I was considering a latch system but the issue is it would need to go at the top of the door and would be problematic on the outside with the stairs and there can be leverage at the bottom popping the door out of the tracks

Yes! I was actually wondering if wefwef/voyager could show the user who posted the meme so I could block the ones who post to much which would reduce the massive load of memes on my front page. Right now you need to go into the community to see who posted the meme
