The 'standard' door stops we are all used to that stop rain coming under
the
door aren't allowed as they are hard to negotiate in a wheelchair. So

you can get a wheelchair in but the entrance hall always has a wet
floor.

I think you mean thresholds and in a way you're right.

But the frames of all the PVu doors I've seen are so deep that they're
dangerous even for people on two legs, I think they'd be impossible for
wheelchairs. It's a very big bee in my bonnet ...

To me thresholds are wooden or plastic strips that stick up onto the bottom
of the door, whereas a doorstop is a continuation of the surround at the
sides and top and gives a much more definitate closure to wind and rain.

Agree the PVC ones are useless either way.
