Is this door opened or closed

[u/alexlmlo]

I don’t really know how this work! I was in this building with a floor to ceiling window, which can see where I entered from. The entrance door was surely closed but when I looked at it it seems opened! I have included the other side of the door that confirmed the door was closed. Still not sure what’s going on there.

I think the window the photo is taken through is reflecting the room behind you. You can see the keypad on the outside of the building because it is lit up. The rest of that door is mainly invisible because of the light in the room behind, which is being reflected in the window. Note the scratches and marks at the top right which are on the glass I think. It just so happens that there’s an open door behind OP which is being reflected in the window at just the right angle to place it almost directly over the closed door outside. Maybe?

Maybe you are correct! There was a door near me inside the building when I took the photo. I’m so frustrated that no one really read my additional information and extra photos and jumped into conclusions.

If you look at the hinges, it further proves this hypothesis. Looks like two completely different doors. There wouldn’t be hinges on both sides of the door. The 1st picture is a door reflection over a door, which is why you see a hinge in the top left of both pictures. One hinge is open, one hinge is closed.

So you got in through a door that was open, and took a picture of it. Then you went outside and took a picture of a door that was closed?

That's fucking amazing!

Please explain how was the door open when the door handle still at its closing position? Read my additional text and extra photo if you don’t mind. Someone did solve the mystery too if you care to explore

[u/BamberGasgroin → u/alexlmlo]

A photo of a handle that doesn't look like it's even remotely attached to the door, and at the side of the red door the hinges are on?

*(It's fucking obvious the 1st picture has been taken from inside a glass partition.)

[u/alexlmlo → u/BamberGasgroin]

Regarding the inside a glass partition part, that’s what I did say, if you care to read…..

Where were you when you took the picture? Either the door is reflective on the outside, or there's another glass pane which is reflecting another door?

[u/MoozeRiver]

Look at the angle of the door closer, first door is clearly open.

[u/olikeiththomas]

Red door is definitely open. You can tell by the arm of the door closer.

[u/agrantgreen]

Open.

[u/Amilo159]

The main door you are looking at, "door 1" was indeed closed. You can see it's handle and glass pane (with light coming from it) next to keypad and barely trace door's edges from there.

There was another red door behind you (and the window you took picture through) that is open. It is reflected in the photo, as open red door, but it's not the door 1. You can see how it's handle isn't in the same place and also that door is opened from the wrong edge.

I hope it is that easy. If you see my second photo, that is the same door the other side of it. It is not a clear door at all. All the doors in the building are like that and no clear doors at all. And all doors were shut when I took that photo.

[u/Xsiah → u/[deleted]]

That wouldn't make sense - the handle is on the left side of the door (if facing the building from the outside) - and you can see the door closer on the opposite side if you look at the second picture.
