Etiquette of knocking at the door

Knocking etiquette: knock three times, once in a while, knock a few more times.

The fingering method of knocking at the door is "single fingering", usually the joint of the index finger or middle finger of the right hand bends to knock at the door. The correct way is to stretch out your right hand, bend your fingers naturally, palm toward yourself, lift the second knuckle of your finger and tap it three times in a row. Do not hit hard with multiple fingers or the back of your hand or palm. When knocking at the door, you can't slide your fingers on the door.

The rhythm of knocking at the door is light and heavy, knocking three times in a row. That is, the first one is lighter, the second one is slightly heavier, which is similar to asking "Hello" and "May I come in". The time rhythm of three knocks should be appropriate. The interval between the first and second knocks is about 2 seconds, and the interval between the second and third knocks is about 1 second.

Office knocking etiquette

In the workplace, as subordinates, we often ask for instructions from leaders and report our work. Knock on the leader's door and be dignified. After knocking three times, you will see no response. Knock again later. If there is still no response, it means that the leader is absent and it's time to go.

If it happens that the door of the leader's house is open or unlocked, we still have to knock, and we must never rush in without permission. If the leader doesn't hear the knock at the door because he is working hard, we'd better wait at the door for a while and then knock at the door; Or wait until you lead or find yourself, and then report your work. This will leave a good impression on the leaders.

In a room with a doorbell, you should use it politely. Ring the doorbell is a "two-step", that is, press it gently and press it later. When you ring the doorbell, remember to clap or press it repeatedly.
