# What is the Close Door button?

If you're hosting an event, you will see a button **Close Door** in your meeting controls.

## How do I close the door?

When you click this button, anyone else who wants to join the call will need to 'knock' to come in.

This is useful for when you don't really want to admit ladies who are late to your event.

Note: If a lady joined your event *before* you closed the door leaves or drops out of the call, she will be able to rejoin without knocking.

If the host closes the door, this is what participants will see when they try to join an event:

When the person wanting to join 'knocks', the host will hear a sound and see a popup to notify them that someone wants to enter.

If the host clicks **Allow** the lady will enter the call, and if breakouts are in session, they will enter the main room. If the host clicks **Deny,** the lady will be taken back to the *Hey Lady!* platform and notified that the host is not letting any more people in at this time (this popup message will appear on their screen)
