Re: A learning experience: My new Kitchen You're right about the door its the wrong way around, I only noticed that later, I'm remodelling the upper cabs and I'll post a new version later About doors. Something to consider for anyone designing homes from scratch:Just from observations I have determined there seem to be some unwritten rules about the opening direction of doors. Bathrooms: always out, bedrooms: always in, living rooms: always in, exterior doors: always in. No fast and hard rules but overall that's how most doors in a house seem to open. For small bathrooms it's easy: there's often no room for a door to go inside the room. I don't know if this is true but the 'standard' of bathroom doors opening out might relate to condensation that's easier to keep inside the bathroom with the way the door frame is constructed. When in doubt or there's no 'rule' to apply, imagine a fire escape route. Doors should open so they go along with the way out. That gives the least chance on doors being blocked and the easiest way to get past them in an emergency. The exception is the exterior door: it needs to open to the inside so access for emergency services is easier. Is anyone familiar with building regulations concerning the way doors open? Are there real rules for the way they open? ---------------------------------------- Dodecagon.nl 1300+ 3D models, manuals, and projects |
