We are usually very common public toilets, although familiar, but do not understand them. So why is there an empty section under the door of a public toilet?
In fact, there is a reason for this design.
1. Security
The so-called security issue here is not afraid that people inside will do something bad, but if someone faints in the toilet, it is convenient for people outside to find help in time. The doors of public toilets, even if locked from the inside, are usually unloaded as soon as the feet are lifted from below and the hands are mentioned from above.
2. Cleaning problems
The cleanliness of public toilets is very important, and too many users can easily get dirty. All open under the door, there are fewer dead ends, reducing the difficulty of cleaning staff to clean. By leaving slits at the top and bottom of the door, air circulation can be greatly enhanced and help odors dissipate.
3. The problem of inflow
If the toilet compartment door is closed, the toilet will be clogged and it will become a cistern, which is not only disgusting but also scary! After all, there are a lot of people coming and going, and some people are unqualified, throwing things into the toilet to cause it to clog, and the dirty water will come up when using it. If you leave a gap under the door, then the water will soon flow out, so it is also convenient for people to work to clean and clean up.
4. Convenient to hand hygiene supplies
I’m sure many people have encountered a similar problem. If you happen to forget to bring paper when you go to the big one, and there is no toilet paper in the toilet, then you can ask for help from the people next door or outside.
This special leave out the gap, behind the hidden deep “humanistic care”, so that you are “convenient” when more convenient, but also to make the bathroom more hygienic.
