    When the security doors are down after hours, that door allows staff to go from one side to the other. You can see the guidelines in the edges of the wall.

    The combination of building safety laws and how the floor plan was designed forced the door to be placed there instead of off to the side.

    I’ve seen this anomaly a few times.

      Huh. I always thought those barriers were meant to be a way for people to navigate their way out when the automatic firewalls come down.

      While this explanation makes sense, I prefer the reality in which a business needed X number of emergency exits for the size of the space and they got the big brain move to add this bad boy to game the system and meet the criteria.
