Why do doors on homes swing in and doors on buildings swing out?
An inward swinging door is less of a hazard to someone walking past in a corridor or on a pathway. A door is more likely to hit someone in a corridor, because there is less space to move away from it than in a room.
Homes are private spaces and the inward swing of the door helps to provide privacy, by screening the room from the person entering for a little longer. E.g. For a bedroom , someone accidentally opening the door will not see a changing individual and provide a few seconds of a visual barrier. For public buildings the safety requirement in evacuation is of greater priority, as these buildings may have large numbers of people needing to leave quickly in an emergency, therefore a door that moves with the flow of people leaving is required.
The swing of a door to the outside can provide some protection by pushing intruders away from the door.
