Confounding Door Lock - Seniors

This ingenious, strong Alzheimer’s door lock requires no key and does not look like a lock. It opens by pulling and rotating the door-jamming "blocker" out of the way of an in-swinging door. Caregivers can unlock the confounding door lock easily, but persons with dementia (who does not know the trick) can try for hours with no success.

This Alzheimer’s safety device works on doors that swing inward only. It's easy to install for any handy person, requiring only three screws (provided). It can be installed on wood or a metal frame and requires a drill and a screw driver. (not provided)

Not recommended for use on exit doors - for safety reasons. Lock access only from inside.

Recommendation: When using this lock to deny access for people with dementia, locate the Confounding Door Lock either exceptionally high or exceptionally low - where one would not expect to find a lock. The combination of an unusual appearance and unusual location will aid in disguising the device.

5 of 5 How did I live without this?? June 30, 2025
Reviewer: Durelle Linton from Athens, TN United States  
I was having trouble sleeping, thinking my wonderful but cagey stage-6 husband might get out of the house in the middle of the night. After this lock was installed, and I know he was safe indoors, I could finally get a good night's sleep!
When I first received the lock, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to use it because it seemed complicated. But once it was installed, I realized it would only be complicated for HIM, but not for me. This is a great well-made product that I wouldn't hesitate to buy if I hade a wanderer. Small enough to be discreet, strong enough to actually work! Bravo!

Reviewer: Casmont from MERIDIAN, ID United States  
My mom wanted to go out in the middle of the night... this door guardian did the trick for us. Once she's in we are safe 'cuz she can't get ot!!! It was relatively easy to put in, but I didn't do that part!
