Each dwelling unit, as a residence is referred to in the codes, must have a minimum of one door that is at least 36” wide and 6’ 8” tall. Any hallway adjacent to that door must also be a minimum of 36”. DOORS

All the other door sizes may be determined by the architect. Codes do not mandate that the front doors will be 36” wide; only that one exit door needs to have this dimension MORE DOORS
