TheBoneLock

TheBoneLock is a solid all-in-one device that extends the natural function of your doorknob and frame with the many added benefits of allowing you to firmly hold any residential-style door cracked open at an adjustable distance.

At doorknob height, the familiar motion makes effortless use of TheBoneLock from either side of the door to allow convenient access to the secured room to easily control your indoor pet traffic and give your cat a safe place for its food and litter, manage noise and privacy, or endless other reasons, all while maintaining balanced temperatures and fresh airflow throughout your home. 

TheBoneLock™ is the premier all-in-one solution with 6 QuickSET positions for all your needs.

TheBoneLock™ is the only adjustable all-in-one solution to conveniently hold your door in a cracked position with the width of opening you choose for your specific need. It’s conveniently achieved with our patent pending design and 6 QuickSET positions.

Using one of TheBoneLock’s 6 QuickSET positions, just flip it up to your prefered width and go! It’s that easy!

Most likely, yes. Cats are like water because, unlike dogs and humans, they have free-floating clavicle bones (collarbone), which allows them to pass their bodies through any space into which they can fit their heads. With the adjustability of TheBoneLock if you set the opening just wide enough for your cat to squeeze through, most likely, the dog will not fit.

Although, if your dog is smaller than your cat (measured primarily by head size), then TheBoneLock™ probably won’t stop it. We’re sorry. But, there are so many benefits to

TheBoneLock™ that if you have a door or may encounter one on your travels, think twice before deciding to pick one up or give one as a gift. It’ll cost you less than a meal, and if you use it normally, you should have it forever. That’s a pretty sweet deal if you ask me.

Yes! TheBoneLock™ is made of strong, rigid, industrial ABS and a stainless steel ball chain. TheBoneLock™ was extensively tested for 5+ years on many doors, many homes, and many pets. Large breeds such as Great Pyrenees, Labs, Pit Bulls, Anatolian Shepherds, German Shepherds, and many more, it has worked well with them all. However, TheBoneLock™ is not a permanent installation and is not a safety device.

That’s why you should NEVER use TheBoneLock™ to contain aggressive animals and you should NOT use it to separate children from animals for protection, or ANY time safety is a concern.

Yes! Depending on their age, development, and height they should be able to use TheBoneLock™. Although it is rigid and takes some force to unlock, if they can reach it they shouldn’t need an adult’s help for convenient everyday use like going in and out of their bedrooms. 

Parents and pet owners can enjoy a simpler and more convenient alternative with TheBoneLock™.

NO MORE pet gates, annoying DIY contraptions, permanently damaging pet doors, or expensive litter box furniture.

That depends on your needs. TheBoneLock is specifically designed to make easy work of almost any situation. With 6 Quickset positions you can choose to allow or block as needed, with approximately 1.5 to 5 inches of opening.

Quickset 6:TheUniversal: (approx. 5 in) - The most airflow and allows hefty cats, while still preventing larger dogs and crawling babies. Also called TheUniversal Quickset because if your door has a knob and a latch, it should work. Just flip over TheBoneLock to the logo side against the door edge and use.

Quickset 4:(approx. 3.5 in) - The favorite position for allowing average sized house cats while preventing even small dogs.

Quickset 1:(approx. 1.5 in) - Allow only fresh temperate airflow. Keep your pets out of spare bedrooms, bathrooms, and home office without sacrificing your comfort or damaging your expensive HVAC by preventing airflow back to the system.

Quicksets 2, 3 & 5: We know not all pets are the same size. Kittens, puppies, ferrets… whatever your needs, TheBoneLock goes the extra mile by providing multiple Quicksets to meet them at regular intervals.

Any interior or exterior door will work. However, the most popular places for the cat’s litter box tend to be bathrooms, laundry rooms, and spare bedrooms. It doesn’t matter which way the door swings. Just throw it on and choose your Quickset position. 

Although TheBoneLock™ does work well with crawling babies and pets, always remember when it comes to child and pet safety, a product should never be used to replace adult supervision.

Similarly, TheBoneLock™ is intended to improve quality of life for pet owners and should never be used when safety is a concern, especially with children or aggressive pets.

TheBoneLock™ comes pre-adjusted for most doors, just throw the loop ball chain over the doorknob, swing it up over the latch on the edge of the door, and let it snap into place in the strike plate on the door frame.

It’s that simple.

But we made an installation video and guide just in case you need to adjust it for your door. Once it’s adjusted, though, TheBoneLock™ will work flawlessly. Click here to view our installation guide.
