Just wanted to add to my post before this that I viewed the floorplan of the Ramsey house, and I see how doors on floorplans are drawn differently according to the direction in which they open.....BUTPagingDrDetect said:Here's a great floor plan of the whole house...

I also just pulled out my floorplan of my house, and some of the doors that are displayed on my floorplan as opening toward the person, actually open AWAY from the person. And vice versa. There are 7 doors in my house that open in the opposite direction that the floorplan indicates. Wierd--I never noticed it before. However, my floorplan is a mass-produced advertising sheet from the Builder---no way indicative of what the actual floorplan is. But I do have access to the actual floorplan filed with the county, so I will be checking it out.
That's why I want to see a photo.
The Ramsey floorplan indicates that if someone was walking into the trainroom, the door opens AWAY from the person. So how would it be difficult to place objects in front of the door if you were already in the trainroom? If the floorplan is correct, it would only be difficult to place objects in front of the door if the door opened TOWARD someone in the hall, or toward someone wanting to enter the trainroom. However, the floorplan indicates that the door opens inward. To stack items in front of the door if you were already in the trainroom would take no difficulty. You would just need the door to be opened, and you could simply close it afterward.
