Toddler keeps climbing out of crib at 2 - floor bed time?

Just turned 2, suddenly an escape artist. Sleep sack didn't deter. Crib mattress on lowest setting. Floor bed terrifies me - she'll just run around.

Toddler bed with rails was our compromise. Plus baby gate at door so she can't leave the room.
Floor bed worked here - took 3 weeks of putting her back to bed silently. Then she got it.
Crib tent! Banned in some places but we used one and it bought us 6 months.
Sleep sack with feet - SleepingBaby Zipadee-Zip - made escape much harder.
Make the room 100% safe (anchor furniture, no choking hazards, gate the door) and let her have the autonomy. We were shocked how well it went.
