[blparent] baby gates question

[PICKRELL, REBECCA M (TASC)]

I bet there is. Hook and eye maybe? Or could you tape the doors shut when the office isn't in use? Or, just teach her to stay out same as you'd teach her not to touch a sharp knife or play with a gun? Part of your job is to teach judgement. 
Also, I assume this office has been there for awhile? Why is it all of a sudden an issue? I'm trying to understand.

you hit the nail on the head. it isn't the fact that we are afraid of her 
getting down the steps cause she does them very well. however we are afraid 
of her getting into things in our office which has french doors on them and 
they are very old so know way of attaching any kind of lock to them.
