Perfectly reasonable. Estates dept. covering themselves is all.

Just what I would have done.

Well most universities have clear entry requirements.

While I'm definitely going to take the piss out of colleagues at RGU, we did get about 20 people trapped in a revolving door at an open day last year so I think I'm on shaky ground.

I've never quite seen the magic in a revolving door - "get rid" would be my advice

Couple of weeks ago, me and Sarah, (for that's her name) were entering a hotel in Berlin to check in, shuffling through a what we both thought was the slowest electric revolving door in the world.

At the same time, we were also independantly thinking it was strange that the receptionist was doing some kind of Agadoo - 'push Pineapple' dance without moving onto 'shake a tree'

Manual door. Plenty of momentum from the previous user and well lubricated bearings. 😳

You've probably never paid the heating bill for a large building that doesn't have them then 😉

I fell out of a paternoster at Stafford Uni open day & broke a finger; in spite of which I reckon even I'm not dumb enough to get stuck in a revolving door.

The classic injury with paternosters is forgetting to get off at the top floor and going over the top...

I did some work at a place that had security doors that automatically unlocked as you approached IF you had your pass in your pocket and it sensed it but otherwise stayed firmly locked. Unfortunately the sensors weren't great.

They were big, heavy, manual push doors and I lost count of the number of sprained wrists that happened during the first month or so while people happily walked into the door with their hands extended to push them open only to find that they hadn't unlocked.
