    I just use the chain link fence gate that unlocks from the detective career as a replacement.

    If your Sim gets to level 3 in the Detective career, they unlock all of the prison build and buy objects. Unfortunately, you can't actually use the door as a door. :( Hopefully a mod can fix that.

    You can build a jail at home but it does not function as as jail. The panels to build the jail are just decorative unless I am missing something. Anyway, I was extremely disappointed!

    I love the science career so far and the photography and baking. Was not pleased with the retail option.

    I was extremely disappointed too, so what I did was download 'Door Locks for TS4' from 'Mod The Sims' (exactly written like that in the search bar) and added a 'Chroma Door' to my cell and locked it to "NO SIMS". Hope I Helped :) Happy Simming. :D

    When this was originally posted last year it did not work. The ability to lock doors was later added in a patch.

    But the door doesn't work like it does in the jail. The detective in the jail can let Sims out with that door. Just locking the door for any or all Sims isn't the same thing.
