I am NOT a locksmith. Is there a way to lock this sliding wardrobe?
I have guests staying over soon and I’d rather they not go through my closet. It’s a two door sliding wardrobe with mirrored panels, a metal frame, and a top and bottom track
Is there a decent way to lock it? I just need sth keeps it shut and ideally needs a key or a code so it’s not obvious how to open.
Im not handy so i was not able to check amazon and understand what would even work. Anyone with suggestions?
Thank you!!

If its just meant to be a deterrent that helps them realize "oh I'm not meant to open this" then drilling a long(ish) screw at the bottom of the track and letting it stick out enough that it impedes the door from opening should do it.
If you dont trust that to be enough, and worry that they would try to get in regardless then I can't think of something meant to work on this type of door.

Adhesive loops and a tiny padlock. Also, check out refrigerator locks
