  • Normally the kitchen door slows the fire enough to get out

    Is it just me that almost never closes any (internal) doors at home?

    I used to live in a 2001 build house that had door closers fitted so the doors were wedged open. A fire seemed less likely than my toddlers fingers getting pinched.

    Before that I lived in a ground floor flat which didn't have a kitchen door when we moved in and we didn't add one. Some potential buyers commented but we just shrugged and told them it was like that when we moved in. I suppose as a ground floor flat you could more easily climb out a window.

    We are fastidious about keeping internal doors closed. Leaving one open usually results in someone saying "close door Tony" per the classic Harry Enfield sketch.
