We're staying at my parents' house and this guest bathroom door is frustrating me to the point where I want to fix it. It aggravates my mom, too. Not so much my Dad since he never uses this bathroom.
As you can see from the picture, the two doors swing into each other. What would make more sense is to have the door that is open swing into the bedroom. The other closed door swings in from a common area.
The door jambs are definitely thicker than what I'm used to seeing. Seems to be 2x6 instead of 2x4.
So how do I go about this? Remove door stops, flip hinges to the other side of the door and reinstall, cut new location for the strike plate, patch old hinge and strike plate areas?
