Shower door

[Darren]

I know we discussed this before, but I cant find it here or in the code books.

Can a shower door open into the shower?

It depends on how fat the person is.

The IRC specifically requires shower doors to open outward. I've never seen it in the NJ plumbing subcode.

Could you make a life safety argument against an inward opening door ? A person who has become unconscious and is blocking the travel space for the hinged panels would make rescue difficult.
