I love that trick. It's almost as much fun as sticking two cats into a sleeping friend's sleeping bag and zipping it all the way up before pounding on pots and pans screaming at the top of your lungs. aaaah, good times.

Have a great WEEK, Flint. REALLY. ALL week. NOT just the off days. Find money. Have a really filthy wet dream. Get a great parking spot, make all the green lights, and stop the gas pump on exactly $50 on the first try. I'm pulling for you.

I figure we're going to need it on there for several more years anyway, and we can always cut it off with big wire cutters or something when we're ready. |

Couldn't you just put a security chain on the door, out of his reach?

Only problem with a slide bolt or chain is that when Mr. Clod comes home, Clodfobble will have to go open the door for him when he rings the doorbell.
An additional deadbolt up high would do the trick though. It could be opened from the outside with a key. They aren't that hard to install if you buy a drilling alignment kit. |

My final suggestion is to replace the current deadbolt you have with one that uses a key on the inside instead of a lever, and you hang that key inside on a nail by the door up high. Depending on your set-up, that may or may not be possible. |

thats the best idea yet glatt - the only thing that concerns me about a keyed exit is in the case of an emergency like a fire or whatever at night.

Well, if minifob is in bed, you can take the key off the hook from beside the door and actually put it in the door (on the inside) so you can open it quickly in an emergency. You only need to remove the key and hang it on the hook/nail when the little guy is in the room.

You can get knobs that will take a coin instead, but I know a mom whose child with autism figured out how to jimmie those.
