What kind of doors shld a coffeeshop have? I go to this one coffeeshop and for whatever reason their doors have actual knobs. What is that about? Im carrying hot coffee...and perhaps something else in the other hand...and have to maneuver the door knob as well. Another shop I frequent has levers, sort of french door style that u press down and then push the door open (though it sticks a bit around the frame). In my mind they should have doors that push out from inside or open automatically. It's not that I have had any accidents myself and yes, its sorta a goofy question, but what do you think on this?? Hot coffee and manually opening doors....has anyone noticed this or had any accidents? If you were trying to maneuver the door, and spilled 5000 degree coffee all over yrself would they be liable?
Where can i buy western / wild west style saloon doors? There is no door to separate my kitchen and dining / living area in my flat, and i had the great idea of buying wild west style saloon doors to put there...preferably i would love them in the style of swinging saloon gates rather than big doors......can anyone help???!!!! (I live in London in the UK)
How do you pick locks on doors? I'm asking for old style doors, with nice big opening... Nothing illegal here, I'm just trying to find a way to open my bedroom door when my silly brother locks me out and goes to sleep lol.
Can I make bi-fold doors into saloon style doors? I have looked EVERYWHERE for long saloon doors. Not the small ones that you put in the center of the doorway, but standard door length size. I have checked all over the internet, Lowe's, Home Depot....ect. I have not checked with any woodworking shops yet, but I would imagine they would be very pricey..?? We were looking at some bi-fold doors, and thought about taking off the hinges connecting the two doors. Would this not be the same thing as having two "long" saloon doors? I have seen several swinging door hinge sets I can purchase and put on the un-connected bi-fold doors... Would this really work, or am I missing some very important information? Im desperate here.. I have been looking for so long, months and can't find any long saloon doors. Im ready to try a new idea and make my own using bi-fold doors.... Any suggestions? Im glad I know now that it can be done. I think since our doorway is 36 inches, we will buy the 32 inch bifold doors to allow for the hinges and swinging room.. It will eliminate shaving off ends dillemma.

Need decorating help: What kind of interiors doors? I have a two-story ranch style house built in the 1980's with large windows across the front. I bought the house because I loved the simplicity and the open floor plan. However, the doors are all flat slab and hollow core: they need to go. Help me decide what style of door to go with. The trim in the house is all painted white. Traditional six panels would be too fussy. What's your suggestion? Here are a couple of photos to help you out. http://www.flickr.com/photos/green_willow/
Where can I find resources to help me build "carriage house" garage doors for my new garage? My wife and I just bought a house that has a very old two-car garage with the old style, carriage house doors, like a barn. The doors aren't in great shape, and are not secure. I looked into the cost of replacing them with new doors and, yikes! it is >$1,000 for each set of doors. I would like to build new doors with locks, but don't even know how to get started.

I'd like the doors to be either: wood (thin), or plastic (rough, semi-transparent, colorful). I haven't been to Home Depot yet for any ideas. Thanks
I need new closet doors in an old house with odd size openings--any ideas?? I am helping to remodel a 1950s house with odd sized closets. The existing doors were bamboo accordian style and were shot.

We may have to get creative and use a cabinet over a standard height door or something.....

Can I have french doors installed in a load bearing wall? My husband and I just recently purchased a home - it is a cape cod style, with two bedrooms on the first floor and one on the second floor. I'd like to convert the larger downstairs bedroom into a family room, and it is separated from the current living room by what I believe is likely a load bearing wall. Rather than take down the wall, can I have a space cut in the wall and french doors installed without damaging my home? Also - not including the cost of the doors, what does that type of work run in Northeast Ohio? Thanks to anyone who can help. :) Thank you all so much for your input, it has been very helpful. Sic-n-tired - I'm a first time home owner, and truly dumb to these things, so forgive me if this is a silly question - but what is flash? Lol* And thanks for the good luck wishes, hopefully spring will visit us in Ohio soon!
Can someone post pictures of layered hair styles for guys? I am growing my hair out long and want to have a nice layered style haircut so it doesn't look so plain and boring. Can someone post some pictures that I can bring to the hair stylist? Hopefully they can make my hair look good and be low on maintenance as well, because I would hate spending hours in front of the mirror just doing my hair every day. I want to be able to get out of the shower and at most spend 10-15 minutes on my hair and get out of the door. Thanks for the help.
What ind of drapery can I put on patio doors that open in? Our living room is in the back of the house and we have french doors that open inside that lead to our patio.

I've already chosen my fabrics, just looking for style ideas. My husband likes to rest in there with the curtains closed and watch TV. I'm looking for something that can be pulled back.
