Ziv Hadeah: Guide to the Halachos of Mezuzah By Rabbi Zev Hofstedter

• How does one establish the correct side of the door where a mezuzah
should be affixed?
• Where is the proper placement of the mezuzah on irregular doorways?
• Which areas and entranceways are exempt from mezuzah?
• What is the obligation of mezuzah in places of work, storage areas,
public places, or temporary dwellings?
The mitzvah of mezuzah encompasses a vast amount of halachos.
There are numerous details which can affect whether one fulfills
the mitzvah properly. Contemporary design and layout of homes
lends itself to many halachic questions that must be resolved, such
as which is the "right" side of the doorway or whether an area is
considered an entranceway and is thus obligated in mezuzah.
Furthermore, the different types of doors and frames used
nowadays can make determining the proper placement of the
mezuzah more difficult.
In Ziv Hadeah: Hilchos Mezuzah, Rabbi Zev Hofstetder methodically
explains the laws and customs pertaining to the mitzvah of mezuzah. Clear
and comprehensive, this halachic guide illuminates the mitzvah that best
identifies every Jewish home.
