Transformative Open Space Arch
I found a house in the gallery for my Sim with a Transformative Open Space Arch. It reminds me of a panoramic door. My concern is that it may attract uninvited Sims since it's technically not a door,...

While this arch does look like a door (and is quite gorgeous!) it does function like all other arches, so you aren't able to lock it or close it to prevent other Sims from entering or trespassing. If you're looking instead for a door that you can lock and close off for other Sims to prevent them from entering your home, I'd recommend replacing this arch with a proper door instead.
That's what I was thinking too. Thanks for your reply.
@Shawnie48 I can't see the lot that you are discussing, but could you place a fence/hedge around and lock the gate instead? So you can keep your arch as it is. Gates obviously don't have trespassing settings like doors do (I wish they did) but you can at least still lock them. Some of my lots have arches so this is what I do instead, I just lock the gate.
Hi there. It does have fencing but I just didn't like the openness of it. I ended up replacing it with two slider doors (also because the sizing of the Arch used up a lot of wall space and I didn’t want to narrow the stairs going outside) and instead created a backyard oasis and put it there instead. I'm glad I was able to put the Arch to use elsewhere.
