What psychopath architects are still designing bathrooms that you have to pull the door open in order to leave? - Lemmy.world

It’s both a hazard for emergencies as well as a hygienic nightmare. We all see the people leaving without washing their hands!

I’m not an expert (at all), but I presume that opening a door into a thoroughfare risks hitting someone with the door but opening into a room only risks a person ready to leave (and approaching the door head on?)

Just thoughts…

One compromise might be touchless door handles

I’ve also seen these at my school, but it doesn’t work for all doors since the door needs to be light enough

Neither of these are that accessible though, and I can’t find photos of the better ones

I’ve seen something similar for your arm. It’s larger and at arms length so you can use more of your body weight to pull it open
