I’m not a big fan of “out-swing” doors.
  • To open the door, you’ll be forced to cross the threshold and risk further exposure
  • It give BG’s a potential place to hide behind when opening the door.
More reasons to have a sturdy glass out-swing. Had not thought of that.

Or install glass or wrought iron "screen" doors, if the architecture and aesthetics allow.
