Question
A store that is permitted to open for the needs of the festival and is not a food store, such as a toy store, I have seen that the law requires it to be opened with a change. Is it sufficient to open one door at the front of the store instead of two, or must a side door be opened as it is more discreet?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
It is permissible to open one door at the front of the store.
