I haven't asnwered the poll yet, because I didn't know what to count. I have seven doors that go outside. Two of them include a glass storm door and a regular wooden one. The sun room has two "garden doors" which means they have a stationary door-sized window next to a real working door. Then we have a front door, back door and a side door. Down stairs we have a basement door and a double door into the scooter shop. Do double doors count twice? Inside we have bedroom doors, closet doors, and bathroom doors. But do I count the case openings between the dining room and the living room? How about the double case opening that goes into the sun room? We also have a door on the stairway down to the den (where I am now)and a couple of store room doors. There is a utility room door off the kitchen. I think I get 20 not counting case openings or closets, and calling a double door just one door. I didn't count the storm doors either. One of them is shot, and I'm going to take it down and throw it away. This is too much for just two people. We are going to have to hire someone to operate some of these doors.
