Got a question about door closers. In a bank branch there is door to the women’s restroom with a closer, and it is non-compliant because it is too close to the lav so there is not enough clearance. The simple solution is to remove the closer, then the required clearance goes away.
Since it’s a restroom (single occupant) it would be nice to have the door stay closed when not occupied. We’re thinking about installing spring hinges. They would not be strong enough to actually close and latch the door, but the intent is to keep the door mostly closed. Maybe only put on one or two, enough to slowly swing the door.
