New Fire Doors

The council recently inspected my house. Since it's a house of multiple occupancy, it has to comply with various regulations including fire doors. Some of the door closers didn't close the doors properly, so we had to have new ones. The landlord came to fit them on Friday.

I now have a door that I can turn the handle and lean my full weight against without it budging. It takes quite an effort to force it open. My housemate's door is in an awkward little angle that means she can't get very much leverage to pull on it; she's gotten stuck once already.

This is going to make us so much safer in the event of a fire.
