Delaying the Placement of a Mezuzah
Question
He moved into his new home and does not have enough mezuzahs for all the doorways. Are there doorways where he can delay placing a mezuzah?
Answer
Rooms into which he has not placed anything and does not enter can be delayed in placing a mezuzah. However, if he has placed items there, even if he does not live there, it is considered his storage, and it requires a mezuzah.
