Whenever I hold the door open I usually hold it just for a few seconds. I think that a good distance that a person has to be not to hold open a door for them is about 7 feet.

Usually about 8-10 ft. Although it does depend on how fast the person is walking, if they are loaded with stuff or if you are feeling patient and generous. I hold the door if they will be there in five or so seconds.

If they are within like 10 feet I am not good with distance but it also depends on the weather and if they have children.

Usually about 5 to 10 feet. Unless it's an older or disabled person, and then I will wait longer.

If the person is a few steps away, hold the door. If they are across the pking lot, go in. Do what your gut tells you at the time. :)

For me, within seeing distance. Don't you just hate the door slamming in your face?

If there are headed towards me, I'll hold the door, even at 25 feet. If they are behind me at least 25 feet, I wont.....

I use the rule of thumb.
A thumb is about 2 and a quarter inches.
