Hello everyone,

unfortunately, our beveled wall (115mm calcium silicate brick with reinforced concrete strip on top) was not built with a slight offset as shown, but directly against the door jamb:

The door opens 90°, but it's already quite tight (some plaster is coming off).


Ideas would be to choose a slightly less protruding handle (this is still the construction door) - and/or to create a recess/small niche in the wall (but how? - the electrician has a tool for socket core drilling, I can't think of anything else). Possibly even several and put decorations in there?
Or is it all a silly idea and just simply choosing the slightly narrower handle?

Looking forward to your feedback - design is not really my strong suit :\

In my opinion, you are looking for a solution in the wrong place.

Why not correct the reveal? Whoever builds incorrectly must fix the defect ...

You can’t even correct the reveal - you can’t just build something on it... then you won’t have any joint offset and the front door will tilt out ;) Demolishing the wall is not an option for us either - even if we leave everything as it is, we wouldn’t have any serious impairment. It’s just about an idea to optimize the whole thing a bit and maybe also to set a nice visual accent.

Simple solution: door stopper?

If the door only opens to 85°, that should be sufficient in 99.99% of cases.

well, with wall anchors or some kind of frame, but that shouldn't be your problem, right?

Narrow handle and door stopper are definitely an option.

I was just wondering if anyone has ever seen something like that with recesses in the wall. We have that in our hospital - but there it looks like bedpans - which is not so nice :D
