Good LnD will show people the path, help hack away the foliage getting in the way, explain why this route is being used, identify the door, explain how he door opens, and help the person place their hand on the door.

Then leave the person to open the door themselves.

Once they’ve done it, by all means wedge that door open but it’s not learning’s job to open the doors – just to give people the ability and capacity to make it happen.
