Its not the same thing as to what you're describing, but its similar in spirit. I own a box that has a timer that you can set for anywhere from a few minutes to literally a week. You set the desired time, place whatever objects you want inside it, and then it locks itself. It is literally impossible to open until the timer runs out. Though, it is made of plastic, so if you need to get inside it for an emergency or something, you could easily smash it.
