Reverse door swing refers to a type of door handing (the direction a door swings open) where the door swings towards you as you pull it open. It's defined by the position of the hinges in relation to you as you face the door.
Here's a breakdown:
- Left Hand Reverse (LHR): The hinges are on your left side and the door swings towards you when you pull it open.
- Right Hand Reverse (RHR): The hinges are on your right side and the door swings towards you when you pull it open.
Essentially, a reverse door swing is the opposite of a regular door swing, where the door swings away from you as you open it. The terminology helps ensure proper door ordering and installation.
