Makes one think for certain ... and the most damage was the farthest from the fire source...
Though, us parents cringe at the thought of disaster that affects our kids,.. this is one that you have to think hard on.
That closed door could save you,.. but will it prevent you from getting to your children. Yes and maybe no.
Wow...

How would it prevent you? Assuming the fire is not current right outside the door, you are now awake and breathing. Thanks to the smoke detector in the hallway and the closed doors.
Now you can open the door in a controlled state from low to the ground and move from room to room to handle getting everyone out.

One of the things that I am thankful for with my house's design, is that there is no room in the house that can't exit directly to the outside, or across a small hall to exit from the other side. No room is more than several feet from two very different exit points. It's a single floor and every room has windows that you could just step out of. Even my seven year old could easily open and leave through any window in the house, plus we have four doors to exit from.

That is one of the biggest reasons my wife only wants single story houses.

Both of my kids and I have fallen down the stairs (long time ago for me, Liesl at age 1, Luciana at 3), and Dominica has nearly fallen down stairs (and her nearly broke her back whereas the other three of us just got banged up) so I tend to hate houses with stairs more for that reason than the fires which are more rare. But kids, at least, on the ground floor, is a big deal.
-
My wife fears people coming into the house more than fires, though, which is totally irrational but it is what it is. But our house is perfect as the kids' rooms don't go to the full outside, but to an enclosed atrium with three sides of house around it and the only side that isn't proper house is a tall brick wall that goes into a trusted neighbor's front walk behind their gate, in direct line of site of their front door. So anyone trying to enter our atrium from that direction would have to go through their gate, scale a wall in absolutely full view of their main living space, and drop blinding into what we call a "shooting gallery" in which they would be trapped with their backs to a "not too quick to climb" brick wall and three other sides of glass in Texas (we have a lot of guns you know).... about the dumbest place a criminal could possibly decide to go.

Awesome production from WGBH in Boston... Lennon Claypool Delirium, live at the House of Blues.
(That's right, John Lennon managed to make 1 talented kid. Who woulda thought it would be with Yoko?)
