Norman doors are still the bane of me.

Norman doors are still the bane of me.
- LandR 1y agoMy local co-op for about the last 10 years had a norman door, and multiple times a week I would pull rather than push or vice-versa. Then finally a couple of weeks ago they've sellotaped a handwritten push / pull on both sides. So it mustn't have just been me getting it wrong every time!
- oneeyedpigeon 1y agoMore doors should take a leaf out of USB-C's book...
- bluGill 1y agoUnfortunately either direction doors are harder to weather seal and energy efficiency matters a lot. Just give me a clear handle that indicates which push/pull and I'll do the right thing every time - this is cheaper as well (but it might not fit with your senses)
- Lu2025 1y agoMost doors in public places need to open to the outside for ease of evacuation in case of an emergency.
