door dilemma

Well, a small dilemma. 24" or 30" door for the upstairs bathroom? The plans call for a 24 incher, but I'm not convinced. All of our other doors are 30. We had one closet door that was 24" upstairs and that seemed appropriate. For a closet. But a bathroom?



The client, however, loves the idea. With the 24, the door opening would be narrow enough so that the linen closet door would not ever interfere with comings and goings from the bathroom. But my thinking is that it is a linen closet door. You don't leave it open. You get out your linens and you shut the door. And it's not like the doors would ever collide. The bathroom door would swing in. Our old downstairs linen closet had a (30", now that I remember) door swing that totally blocked the door to the den when it was open. I heard no complaints.



I think that the upshot will be that I'm going to use one of our old 30s and an old 24 to see what they would look like in the space. Hopefully the client will come around.

















On a side note, all of that electrical work has to go, as that is where the new bedroom door will be (to the church room). Another exciting day project.
