| Expense Narrative [Text Block] | rr_ExpenseNarrativeTextBlock | This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and certain members of your family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Lord Abbett Family of Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available from your financial intermediary and in “Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers” on page 231 of the prospectus, Appendix A to the prospectus, titled “Intermediary-Specific Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers,” and “Purchases, Redemptions, Pricing, and Payments to Dealers” on page 9-1 of Part II of the statement of additional information (“SAI”). |

| Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] | rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock | The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in the annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 1% of the average value of its portfolio. | ||||||||||

| Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] | rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock | This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Class C shares automatically convert to Class A shares after eight years. The expense example for Class C shares for the ten-year period reflects the conversion to Class A shares. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be: |

| Strategy [Heading] | rr_StrategyHeading | PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES | ||||||||||
| Strategy Narrative [Text Block] | rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock | The Fund is a “fund of funds” that invests in affiliated mutual funds (the “underlying funds”) managed by Lord Abbett. Under normal conditions, through the underlying funds, the Fund indirectly invests in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign micro-cap, small, and mid-sized companies. The Fund uses a “blend” strategy to gain investment exposure to both growth and value stocks, or to stocks with characteristics of both. Equity securities in which an underlying fund may invest include common stocks, preferred stocks, equity interests in trusts (including real estate investment trusts and privately offered trusts), partnerships, joint ventures, limited liability companies and vehicles with similar legal structures, and other instruments with similar economic characteristics. Securities of foreign companies include emerging market companies, American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), and other similar depositary receipts. In addition to ADRs, the Fund generally defines foreign companies as those whose securities are traded primarily on non-U.S. securities exchanges. In addition to investing in the underlying funds, the Fund may invest directly in any type of derivative as part of its investment strategies or for risk management purposes. Currently, the Fund may invest in derivatives consisting principally of futures, forwards, options, and swaps. To the extent that the Fund invests directly in derivatives, the Fund intends to do so primarily for non-hedging purposes. The market value of the Fund’s directly held positions in derivatives, determined at the time of the most recent position established, will not exceed 50% of the Fund’s net assets. The Fund currently expects, however, that the market value of such instruments, determined at the time of the most recent position established, will not exceed 35% of the Fund’s net assets under normal conditions. These percentage limitations exclude Fund assets indirectly invested in derivatives through the underlying funds. The Fund’s portfolio management team generally employs a bottom-up investment approach emphasizing long-term value. The investment team may also consider the risks and return potential presented by environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) factors in investment decisions. The Fund may sell or reallocate its investments among the underlying funds for a variety of reasons, such as to secure gains, limit losses, redeploy assets, increase cash, or satisfy redemption requests, among others. The Fund may deviate from the investment strategy described above for temporary defensive purposes. The Fund may miss certain investment opportunities if defensive strategies are used and thus may not achieve its investment objective. |

| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | As with any investment in a mutual fund, investing in the Fund involves risk, including the risk that you may receive little or no return on your investment. When you redeem your shares, they may be worth more or less than what you paid for them, which means that you may lose a portion or all of the money you invested in the Fund. | ||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | Risk Not Insured [Member] | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. | ||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Underlying Funds Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Underlying Funds Risk: The assets of the Fund are invested principally in the underlying funds. As a result, the investment performance of the Fund is directly related to the investment performance of the underlying funds in which it invests. The Fund is exposed to the same risks as the underlying funds in direct proportion to the allocation of its assets among the underlying funds. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a single underlying fund it may be more susceptible to risks associated with that fund and its investments. It is possible that the holdings of underlying funds may contain securities of the same issuers, thereby increasing the Fund’s exposure to such issuers. There can be no assurance that the investment objective of any underlying fund will be achieved. In addition, the Fund’s shareholders will indirectly bear their proportionate share of the underlying funds’ fees and expenses, as well as their proportionate share of the Fund’s fees and expenses. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Affiliated Underlying Funds Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Affiliated Underlying Funds Risk: The Fund invests principally in underlying funds advised by Lord Abbett, which presents certain conflicts of interest. Generally, Lord Abbett will receive more revenue from investing in the underlying funds than it would if it invested in unaffiliated funds. In addition, Lord Abbett is subject to conflicts of interest in allocating portfolio assets among the various underlying funds because the fees payable to Lord Abbett by underlying funds differ. Lord Abbett may have an incentive to select underlying funds that will result in the greatest net management fee revenue to Lord Abbett and its affiliates, even if that results in increased expenses for the Fund. In addition, the Fund’s investments in affiliated underlying funds may be beneficial to Lord Abbett in managing the underlying funds, by helping the underlying funds achieve economies of scale or by enhancing cash flows to the underlying funds. If the Fund invests in an underlying fund with higher expenses, the Fund’s performance would be lower than if the Fund had invested in an underlying fund with comparable performance but lower expenses. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · New Underlying Funds Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · New Underlying Funds Risk: The Fund may invest in underlying funds that are recently organized. There can be no assurance that a new underlying fund will reach or maintain a sufficient asset size to effectively implement its investment strategy. In addition, until the Fund achieves sufficient scale, the Fund may experience proportionally higher expenses than it would experience if it invested in a fund with a larger asset base. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Portfolio Management Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Portfolio Management Risk: If the strategies used and investments selected by the Fund’s portfolio management team fail to produce the intended result, the Fund may suffer losses or underperform other funds with the same investment objective or strategies, even in a favorable market. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Market Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Market Risk: The market values of securities will fluctuate, sometimes sharply and unpredictably, based on overall economic conditions, governmental actions or intervention, market disruptions caused by trade disputes or other factors, political developments, and other factors. Prices of equity securities tend to rise and fall more dramatically than those of debt securities. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Equity Securities Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Equity Securities Risk: Equity securities, as well as equity-like securities such as convertible debt securities, may experience significant volatility. Such securities may fall sharply in response to adverse events affecting overall markets, a particular industry or sector, or an individual company’s financial condition. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Industry and Sector Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Industry and Sector Risk: Although the Fund does not employ an industry or sector focus, its exposure to specific industries or sectors will increase from time to time based on the portfolio management team’s perception of investment opportunities. If the Fund is overweight in a single industry or sector relative to its benchmark index, the Fund will face an increased risk that the value of its portfolio will decrease because of events disproportionately affecting that industry or sector. Furthermore, investments in particular industries or sectors may be more volatile than the broader market as a whole. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Micro-Cap, Small, and Mid-Sized Company Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Micro-Cap, Small, and Mid-Sized Company Risk: Investments in micro-cap, small, and mid-sized companies may involve greater risks than investments in larger, more established companies. Securities of micro-cap, small, and mid-sized companies tend to be more sensitive to changing economic, market, and industry conditions and tend to be more volatile and less liquid than equity securities of larger companies, especially over the short term. The securities of micro-cap, small, and mid-sized companies tend to trade less frequently than those of larger, more established companies, which can adversely affect the pricing of these securities and the ability to sell these securities in the future. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Blend Style Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Blend Style Risk: Growth stocks typically trade at higher multiples of current earnings than other stocks. Growth stocks often are more sensitive to market fluctuations than other securities because their market prices are highly sensitive to future earnings expectations. At times when it appears that these expectations may not be met, prices of growth stocks typically fall. Growth stocks may be more volatile than securities of slower-growing issuers. The prices of value stocks may lag the stock market for long periods of time if the market fails to recognize the company’s intrinsic worth. Value investing also is subject to the risk that a company judged to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced or even overpriced. A portfolio that combines growth and value styles may diversify these risks and lower its volatility, but there is no assurance this strategy will achieve that result. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Foreign and Emerging Market Company Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Foreign and Emerging Market Company Risk: Investments in foreign companies and in U.S. companies with economic ties to foreign markets generally involve special risks. These companies may be more vulnerable to economic, political, and social instability and subject to less government supervision, lack of transparency, inadequate regulatory and accounting standards, and foreign taxes. Foreign company securities also include ADRs, which may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market. Foreign securities also may subject the Fund’s investments to changes in currency exchange rates. Emerging market securities generally are more volatile than other foreign securities, and are subject to greater liquidity, regulatory, and political risks. Investments in emerging markets may be considered speculative and generally are riskier than investments in more developed markets. Emerging markets are more likely to experience hyperinflation and currency devaluations. Securities of emerging market companies may have far lower trading volumes and less liquidity than securities of issuers in developed markets. In certain emerging market countries, governments participate to a significant degree in their respective economies. Action by these governments could have a significant adverse effect on market prices of securities and payment of dividends. Companies with economic ties to emerging markets may be susceptible to the same risks as companies organized in emerging markets. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Foreign Currency Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Foreign Currency Risk: Investments in securities that are denominated or receiving revenues in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar, or, in the case of hedged positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. Foreign currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Derivatives Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Derivatives Risk: The risks associated with derivatives may be different from and greater than the risks associated with directly investing in securities and other investments. Derivatives may increase the Fund’s volatility and reduce its returns. Derivatives may not perform as expected and the Fund may not realize the intended benefits. Whether the Fund’s use of derivatives is successful may depend on, among other things, the portfolio managers’ ability to correctly forecast market movements, company and industry valuation levels and trends, changes in foreign exchange and interest rates, and other factors. If the portfolio managers incorrectly forecast these and other factors, the Fund’s performance could suffer. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives are subject to the risk that improper or misunderstood documentation may expose the Fund to losses. |
||||||||||
| Prospectus Summary | Lord Abbett Alpha Strategy Fund | · Liquidity/Redemption Risk | ||||||||||||
| Risk/Return: | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||||||||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | · Liquidity/Redemption Risk: The Fund may lose money when selling securities at inopportune times to fulfill shareholder redemption requests. The risk of loss may increase depending on the size and frequency of redemption requests, whether the redemption requests occur in times of overall market turmoil or declining prices, and whether the securities the Fund intends to sell have decreased in value or are illiquid. The Fund may be less able to sell illiquid securities at its desired time or price. It may be more difficult for the Fund to value its investments in illiquid securities than more liquid securities. |
