A wand of locking can be used to reconstitute, close, and lock doors. It also has other uses.

When standing in a doorway, this wand will create a locked door at the point (if any) where the 'bolt' of locking hits a wall. if you point with the wand to a doorway, and the doorway is blocked by a corpse, you get a message: "something's in the way!".
