We have this tiny storage room in our shared co-working space that likely used to be a toilet and had no door. Ever since we rented it, it’s a source of smell. The door for it was just hanging inside, too tall to be put in place. Today I decided to shorten it and mount it.



Unfortunately, the door had twisted, perhaps years before the last “renovation” that left it placed by the wall. I’ll have to figure out some alternative way to close it. The metal piece that holds the lock was cut or broke before our time here. I think I can find another one but it won’t make the door any less twisted.
Some door is likely going to better than no door in terms of odor. Fingers crossed.
The “Refactoring” book is handy in many situations =)

Oh no, what did I do.
Refactored the door and moved it from one very miserable state (doesn’t mount) to another (mounted but doesn’t close). I did this using the Refactoring book 😀

My plan is to put an external lock of some kind, close to the top of the door, and force it to close. Hopefully, after staying like that for another decade or two, it will untwist.

I agree! Get someone to voluteer to take the toilet out and replace it or give it a good cleaning. I’m sure people will liine up for that stinky job. 🙂

It was removed years ago and covered with drywall. Some pipe remained not sealed
