Inside of Door - The Inside of a door refers to the side of the door that faces the room. For example, for a
bedroom door on a hallway, the Inside of the door would face the bedroom.
Outside of Door - The Outside of a door refers to the side of the door that faces away from the room. The
Outside of a door is generally more visible to visitors, and therefore a rosette on this side of the door has no visible
screws. For example, on a bedroom door, the Outside would face the hallway.
