Kitchen and service door traffic
In commercial kitchens and service areas, doors may be opened repeatedly while people carry trays, boxes or equipment. Swing direction and handles can matter as much as the door finish.

Kitchen and service door trafficThis doorset diagram supports kitchen and service door traffic by showing the door, frame and hardware as connected parts of one opening.
A busy route needs space to work
Look at the route on both sides of the opening and identify where impacts or congestion occur. The solution should suit the specific premises and any applicable safety requirements.
What to look at
Start with the opening, the condition of the existing door and frame, the way the space is used, and the finish you want to achieve. These details usually narrow the practical options quickly.
