Why do "accessible" doors always have to weigh so much more than regular doors? The powered ones are extremely difficult to open if the button decides to not work.
- bombcar 3y agoIt's like trying to turn power steering in your car with the engine off. They're often not designed to "freewheel" so you're dragging the equipment with it. Automatic sliding doors is the way to go, or if you have swing doors then they should be very large and well-hung. The large also contributes to it - a normal door may be 3 feet wide, an accessible one can be 4 or even 5 feet wide.
