What’s That Mysterious Gap Under Your Bathroom Door? The Answer Will Surprise You! Brought to you by Avonetics.com

from Enigma Unboxed · host Enigma Unboxed

Ever noticed a strange cut section at the bottom of an old bathroom door? This peculiar feature, commonly found in Berlin apartments, has a fascinating purpose rooted in safety and practicality. The gap was designed to provide ventilation, especially in older buildings that once housed gas boilers or water heaters in bathrooms. By allowing airflow, it prevented dangerous carbon monoxide buildup and reduced moisture-related issues. Even after renovations removed the gas appliances, many doors retained this feature.
