As the saying goes, leave three doors, four rooms and six coffins. What are you talking about?

Everything should leave room, which is the inspiration left by this proverb. The expression "three doors, four rooms and six coffins" is the experience summed up by ancestors when they were making things, and it has certain truth in size and significance.

The width of the "three-door" door is 3 cm wider than the width of the door below, which means that the door above is wider than the door below, so it is easier for people to save money and it is not easy to waste money. At the same time, for the convenience of use, only the upper part is 3 cm wider than the lower part, which will facilitate the installation of the door maker behind.

"Leave four rooms", the room here refers to the door, and the width under the door is 4 cm wider than the width above. When the ancients made things, they always gave them beautiful meanings, especially when they made doors. Open-mindedness is a beautiful character of people. People hope that all families can have an open mind through the design of doors. The second meaning is also for practical needs. People always leave a hole when building the gate, which is a kind of construction foresight.

"Leaving six coffins" means that when carpenters make coffins, they are all about six feet three. Why six feet three? This is because the ancients summed up the experience of making coffins for many years. If the coffin is larger than 6' 3, it will cause unnecessary waste; if it is smaller than 6' 3, it will be too narrow.

Of course, for modern people, the size of the proverb should not be very useful, because now there are specialized door and window designers, and the structure of the house is very different from the original structure, but the wisdom embodied in this proverb is still worth appreciating. .
