How Are These For Gable Doors? 



Speaking of the right and wrong way to have your gable 

 (ioors, do you know Ernest Mueller of St. Joseph, Missouri? 

 Well then, you know what a careful, painstaking man he 

 is about everything he does. 



When we tell you that these door photos were taken at his 

 new house, along in November, you are promptly satisfied 

 that those doors are right. 



You'll notice that the center door is hinged to one of tho 

 others, and that it is equipped with knob and lock as an 

 entrance door. 



Now just note those two strong channel iron posts. One 

 is bolted directly to the right-hand door, and has slip bolts 

 top and bottom when you want to throw the door open. 



The other channel iron post is fastened to the left-hand 

 door and swings back with it; or is held in place the same 

 as the other. 



Observe that the doors ALL swing in. 



Also that the two hinged ones fold back as they open in, 

 so that no additional space is necessary on the end walk. 



Folding back that way has another advantage. 



It takes the leverage off the main hinges. 



Mind you, we are not saying this is the only way to arrange 

 gable doors, but we do say that the up-to-date Westerners 

 seem to want them that way. 



So it must be because of some particularly sound reason.
