Why is this sign needed? Were people going to try some third option? Yet it was obviously written by hand and attached to both sides the door for a reason, presumably to prevent some common problem. I am puzzled.

I have a feeling this sign was created as a dispute settler, and is intended to let patrons know that either is acceptable. I came to this conclusion based on the way the word “or” is underlined. I think, probably, someone complained and tried to gain control over which direction the door could be used. The business probably realized patrons were accustomed to using the door both ways (possibly due to its location relative to other businesses/thoroughfares?) and recognized that they needed to specify the acceptablity of both usages to not alienate one group of traffic over another. Is the business between other businesses, with traffic coming from both sides?
Just a hunch.
