I thought that might've been what was going on in one of my sim's houses.

 

In the butler's bedroom, I'd locked the door for "everyone but the butler", yet kept finding sims inside the butler's room. The butler had a computer in there. I then set security for the computer so only the butler could use it and haven't seen anyone in the room since other than butler, but also bear in mind not long after I then switched away from that family to play another household, so this theory and possible workaround hasn't been tested properly yet.

 

They were unable to exit the door once they got in after possibly magically routing to the computer, so whole thing was pretty annoying.

@khitteh Yep! I had this happen at multiple locations. So I just have been using the computer security settings.
