Is the entrance shown in the picture obligated in a mezuzah?
Thank you

Answer

Shalom and blessings 

From the picture you attached, it can be seen that the entrance has a right doorpost. However, two things cannot be identified:

1. Whether there is an upper lintel over the entrance. 

2. Whether there is a left doorpost for the entrance, or whether it is merely an angled wall that continues into the room. 

Please complete these details, and we will review it again, with God’s help.
