Carrying in a Hospitality Area
Question
We are staying for Shabbat in a hospitality area with several buildings. We checked the area, and it is completely surrounded by partitions except for an opening about 5 meters wide, which has no door and no form of an entrance. Is it permissible to carry there?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
An opening less than 10 amot wide [approximately 8-9.60 meters, depending on opinions] does not need to be closed. Provided that the opening stands straight and is not at an angle.
