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 Confounding Lock gives us the security we all need November 5, 2024
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Las Cruces, NM United States  
These confounding locks are perfect for the added security we need now that our loved one has Alzheimer's. He is unable to open the door and wander off. They were easy for our handyman to install. I changed my mind on the color for one of the doors and customer service made it an easy process to exchange them.

5 of 5 These work great! October 24, 2024
Reviewer: Susan from LAS CRUCES, NM United States  
I really like that these come in 4 colors because we have different color doors and trim. Our handyman installed them easily. They are a real lifesaver.. to help keep our loved one from wandering away. I was able to easily exchange one color for another, the process was simple. I'm so happy to have found the Alzheimer's Store and I'm sure I'll be a steady customer!


 
 
5 of 5 Easy Installation and Effective October 21, 2024
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Chesapeake, VA United States  
As the only caregiver for a family member (dementia) who has mastered the ability to quietly wander out the door, I installed the Door Guardian for his protection.  It was easy to install and has worked effectively during this sundowners' phase. He was able to defeat motion actuated devices, but he has yet to recognize that the Guardian is in place.  Thank you for providing this peace of mind that allows me to keep him safe at home.


 
 
5 of 5 Happy with my purchase October 17, 2024
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Wheaton, IL United States  
Excellent product. We placed it on the front door to prevent our autistic boy from leaving the house unnoticed. With this product, we feel safer and sleep more peacefully.
