Your profile picture is upside down... hence the down under bit.

That was weird - correct pic on tablet & phone but upside down on laptop. I think I’ve corrected it.

Apologies all for drifting seriously off topic!

Hi - can I just clarify, that when closing the door from outside, on the Warwick Duo, you pull it closed gently, to latch it, without slamming. Then while it’s still ‘open’, I push the back of the door inwards, and that closes it fully and securely.

Is that correct and will it work for a 5’ 4” size 12 mere slip of a girl.

Push the rear of the door in while it is still moving forward It does not take a lot of effort

I’m glad you mentioned the moving bit; I could have ended up looking silly. hugegrins

Thanks for the tip, I’ll try it the next time I’m out.

There seems to be some missunderstanding of the issue i raised.
I can shut the side door by any of the methods mentioned,the point is that IF you dont manage to shut it completely the door will not open useing the exterior handle to let you attempt to reshut it. The interior handle works fine and allows you to re open the the door when this issue arises.
