Re: [DIY] Digest Number 6271

 

If the door swings out, the hinge pins are outside, where they can easily be removed to remove the door for access.

I wonder why some walk-in garage doors I have seen swing out instead
of in?  Seems you can have a little more interior space if it swings out?

if you need the door to be an emergency exit, it should probably swing out

My walk in garage door swings out and the new door for my shop will also be hung to swing out for just that reason.  You can always put a removable draft and dirt stopper along the bottom of a door that swings out, but it is pretty hard to do on a door that swings in.  If I find the need to add a screen door to keep the dogs out in the summer it can swing in, but I will probably only cover the lower half and make the hinges so that it can be quickly removed and stored away when not needed.

You want a exterior door, preferably metal (for security/ maintenance) that swings into garage, sits ON TOP of the threshold, so that water that runs down the door drains OUT. I say this because I bought one that has a stepped threshold, and water runs IN. (woulda' worked great if I had an OVERHANG/ or porch roof...) Terry mailto:thenne1713%40aol.com
