Changing placement of door hinges

[Brie Schmidt]

One of our new tenants complained that the door hinges are on the outside of the door and for safety reason he wants the hinges on the inside.  Is there any easy way to do this without changing the swing of the door and bringing it inside?

This is an older home with a weird inside door width so I would need a custom door to move the swing inside.

I have a 1940's house that had a back door that opened out, it was in pretty bad shape from always getting wet from being opened in the rain. I purchased a new fiberglass pre hung door and made it swing in even though it has to be removed to put the washer and dryer in the laundry room. It is a lot of work and expense to do this option.

You can buy commercial pinned hinges that have a set screw in them that can only be removed when the door is open and a guard for the door lock set. This setup is much safer than a household door that swings in because there is no way to kick the door in when it swings out.
