It's tricky, because having the door lock immediately is good for safety, but sometimes that's weird, like if I have maintenance being done, and it's like "I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me". If I give it time, that kind of works, but then the sound of the door locking scares me a little, also it's not as safe.

Obviously not using auto lock solves this problem, but then you have to lock the door, and sometimes I forget.

Is there a better way of doing this?
