- 1). Open the door of the room, building, closet or other location so that it is ajar.
- 2). Stand on the side of the door that requires you to pull the door closed instead of pushing it closed. If the door is already removed, then pretend.
- 3). Look at the side of the door and locate the hinges that hold it to the door jamb. If the hinges are on the let side of the door, then the door is a left-handed door. If the hinges are on the right side of the door, then it is a right-handed door.
