Do you still have that classic zinc bathroom door? There's a gap above it when it is closed so you can put your clothes and towel on top of it.

All flats built in the 1970s have it.
 
Quite so. And they were all made by a company called Yong Tai Loong.

I really want to have one of those zinc bathroom doors... I don't care for fanciful sliding or folding doors, or colourful patterns on them.

The zinc doors were light, functional and durable.
