About the solution
Logan created a door closing aid, by tying a lace on the interior door handle, weighted down by a key: keeping the spare key here, rather than in the lock, also means that the door can be opened by a rescuer in case he has a fall. Then as he leaves he grabs the lace or key and gives it tug as he leaves, letting go before the door shuts. This saves him having to go back to pull the door shut, leaving the spare key inside.
He also puts pipe lagging on his radiators, in case he needs to grab it to prevent a fall, to save burning his hands.
