What makes you think this is an exterior door? The flooring is the same.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 7 points 1 year ago

Appears it is an interior door of an abandoned castle, based on the reply from Bagel5941

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Most interior doors don’t have something that looks like what could be an apartment room number sign.

edit: but I suppose it could be an interior door, the sign isn’t clear enough to read

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The sign says "the crooked room" and it was used to threaten naughty children with. Probably.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 6 points 1 year ago

well, the walls I can see in there do resemble a dungeon of some kind.

Not sure this is real but it's the closest I could find to the origin of the image dated April 2nd, 2021.

in much more interesting news, today at work I got to explore an abandoned 500-year-old castle, seized by the state because of the owner's massive tax evasion

So yes the place is 500yo, but it has been renovated 40 years ago, after being half destroyed during WWII. So it's got ugly 80s decor vibes. And yes it's called a château

Tumblr still getting it done, thanks for sharing!

Can you even get through that doorway in a wheelchair?

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 7 points 1 year ago

after you kick the door in and squeeze your chair together a bit, maybe

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

Would you want to?

[–] ursakhiin@beehaw.org 8 points 1 year ago

Not gonna lie. I'd buy a house with a door like that inside. Especially if that wall was behind it.

[–] ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 year ago

Ah yes, the door you stub your toe on regardless if it’s open or not. Brilliant design.

[–] Treczoks@feddit.uk 7 points 1 year ago

Wrong sales pitch. Should have been "A new and innovative way to cut corners"

[–] itsyourmom@artemis.camp 6 points 1 year ago

My OCD is pissed they folded the door off center…. 😑

[–] roawre@feddit.ch 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Stupid remark, but this door cannot stay closed, does it ?

[–] Turun@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago

There are latching mechanisms. Sliding doors exist.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

yeah, that’s where I was going with the headline. it probably does latch and stay closed… barely. as long as you don’t bump it too hard. maybe. this is all speculation.

[–] roawre@feddit.ch 4 points 1 year ago

Omg i didn't understand :) I was like "what does security has to do with a door in a corner..." Sry, silly me

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

"Fuck open concept! I hate having large open spaces in my house unimpeded by the safety and security of solid doors and walls!"
