The direction a door opens is indicated by its hinges and the way it swings. If the hinges are on the left side and the door swings towards you, it is a left-hand door; if the hinges are on the right and it swings towards you, it is a right-hand door. Additionally, a door that swings away from you will be labeled as left-hand reverse or right-hand reverse, depending on the hinge placement. The labeling helps in determining the door's orientation and accessibility.
My 2000 SE wagon works in exactly the same manner. I believe that is the way the system was designed.
That is a special circumstance. A door is right or left hand looking at it as it opens away from you. Front door of a house that opens in. Looking at it, hinges on the right side would be a right hand door. Because there is some variance in how people refer to doors, even in people who work in suppliers I have found it is always best to describe the door, how it is set and which way it swings. Make sure the person you are talking to understands what you describe. In your case, If it is designed to open out, the door on a business very often opens out, I would call it a Right hand that opens out. That way the threshold would be correct.
The person that opens the door is at fault
