EVERY door is permanently Wizard Locked. Only the wizard and any apprentices would be allowed to freely move from room-to-room, floor-to-floor. There are permanent Alarms on all access points...including, as any decent wizard paying attention to their Secure Shelters and Magnificent Mansion spells would know, any chimneys/fireplaces, drainage grates, etc... in addition to windows/shutters and doors.Glyphs of Warding...um...everywhere? Well, anywhere that's important.If possible, the "inner sanctum" or library or "lab" or whatever their primary space for magic work would have some sort of permanent Magic Circle built into it.Depending on how paranoid this wizard is, maybe Nondetection is something they take as a matter of course...or multiple times per day (8 hours per casting) depending on what they are specifically working on/ if they think someone is trying to see what they're doing.Private Sanctum would be a necessary 4th level slot (lasts 24 hours, so probably a single "beginning of the magic working day" spell to be cast before getting into whatever other business you have.On 4th level spells, Dimension Door would definitely be a second one...Let me go in order, here, before things get confusing... not adventuring, going about your average magic working/research day...1st: Comprehend Languages, Detect Magic, Magic Missile, Protection from Evil (also in spellbook: Alarm, Featherfall, Identify, Shield)  2nd: Detect Thoughts, Invisibility, Mirror Image (in spellbook : Arcane Lock, Knock, Levitate, Scorching Ray)  3rd: Dispel Magic, Fly, Nondetection (in spellbook: Glyph of Warding, Lightning Bolt, Magic Circle, Protection/Energy)4th: Banishment, Dimension Door, Private Sanctum (in spellbook: Resilient Sphere)5th: really depends on what your wizard is working on. My top picks would include: Conjure Elemental, Contact Other Plane, Planar Binding, or, if not doing any "big extraplanar stuff" this particular day (or just not being that big into conjuration stuff, at all), Legend Lore, Scrying or Wall of Force.  Choose one that fits their area of interest/study and add two more for their spellbook.</blockquote>
