Handicap buttons through building entrances
Problem description: At the CSE building there are two sets of doors for each building entrance. The building designers provide buttons to open each set doors, but each button opens only one set of doors, and the doors open very slowly. A person in a wheelchair must push one button, wait for the first set to open, roll through, then push a second button, and wait for the second set to open. This is very time consuming and annoying.
Proposed solution: A simple solution is to just wire the doors so that pushing a button opens both sets of doors. This should be straightforward.
