The apartment we live in is over 100 years old, so it has some issues. The door between the two bedrooms (we have a strange layout) had some problems last year and it would stick, now it's so far from the door frame that it's easily pushed open. It would randomly open from wind, stepping on a creaky floor board, or the dog might push his way through. Since we've designated the tiny "bedroom" as the room for smoking cigarettes, it's important that this door stays shut since I don't smoke and it's icky. | The apartment we live in is over 100 years old, so it has some issues.
