I am wanting to fit a new upvc door to my garage. The problem I have is that I'm trying to buy one off a popular site and most of the ones I like, open inwards.
Can I yse one of these and simply reverse it or would that present a security breach with the accessibility of the hinges?
Many thanks in anticipation

Most doors open inwards, it a H&S thing, if they opened outwards there would be a lot of people walking round with broken noses. :p

If the hinge is accesible then yes it will lessen the security of the door, having said that if it has multiple locking points it will still be difficult to remove.
