'Fusuma' in its most common meaning is written 襖 and means 'sliding panels/doors'. They are used as doors to rooms or to divide space in a big room etc.

Other meanings could be 衾 /fu su ma/ meaning 'quilt' which are customized or self-made blankets sewn together from different pieces. Written 麩 /fu su ma/ it means 'wheat bran', the outer layer of grain separated by sifting.

Can you lock a Japanese home the kind with all the fusuma?

Yes, Japanese homes with fusuma (sliding doors) can be locked, though the locking mechanisms may vary. Many traditional homes use simple wooden locks or sliding bolts on the fusuma for security. Additionally, some modern homes may incorporate more advanced locking systems. However, it’s important to note that traditional Japanese homes often prioritize open spaces and fluidity, so security measures might be less prominent compared to Western-style homes.
