Good answer. Juliet does the same thing, and it drives me NUTS.

Watch out if you have kitties! They quickly learn how to open lever-style
doors.... I'm sure some poochies would have no trouble, either. No cats, no way. I'm somewhat allergic, and have NO interest in the constant battle with hairballs (organized or otherwise). We're at "maybe" on a dog, but it would probably be a small, shorthaired variety. (I'm thinking mini greyhound or a Jack Russell.) KarenK |

And these guys were way over the line approaching you at night
like that. They need to be called attention to. I agree, but I'm just too tired and dealing with colder weather (i.e. pain increase, "STEVE") to do so. ~~ Sooz The things that will destroy us a politics without principle; pleasure without conscience; wealth without work; knowledge without character; business without morality; science without humanity, and worship without sacrifice. - M.

You know, another thing about the lever style door handles (yes, that's the
word I couldn't remember) is that they are very easy to change back and forth with door knobs.. That's about the simplest example I could think of. Mainly I mentioned it because it makes a very big difference for ease of access, with very little effort. And because it has gotten more popular, it has come way down in price. If we install handicap friendly hardware, etc, we make it more accessible for others wanting to install it. And like I say, we are likely to need it ourselves one day. If we're lucky.

I like the way they look better, too. And you can open a door even if your hands are full.
