“Any rifle round will go through it. Some pistol rounds will.”

There is a metal piece on both sides of the door.

A zombie would likely have a hand gun rather than a rifle. To be safe, then, I shouldn’t stand in front of the door. There is a door to the laundry room immediately inside that door, so I could stand in that doorway and be out of the line of fire if someone shot at the door.

This has been bugging me for some time - was it safe to stand in front of that door if someone knows I’m there and shoots at the door. The answer is, from what you say, I’d better not stand there.

I woudn't stand there, but in my situation, I have a way to deal with those that approach the front door. Heck, I don't answer the front door today, I generally flank that area and see what the knockee wants. Scares the crap out of most of them. ;)
