Not sure how widely available this feature is, but the unifi controller software for the popular Ubiquiti APs lets you bind individual client devices to specific APs such that they can only connect to the ones you choose.

I had to solve a similar issue for some crap IoT lights that would join the incorrect AP after a power cut every time.

for static clients that works well, though you can usually set a min rssi and get the same benefit without so much clicking.
