Card for Opening a Hotel Door on the Sabbath

Question

Hello Rabbi, is there any room to be lenient about opening a door with a magnetic card on the Sabbath?

Answer

In my personal opinion, no. But there are halakhic decisors who were lenient about this (such as Rabbi Rabinovitch of blessed memory, from Ma’ale Adumim. I think that even in his view it should be forbidden in practice because it is a weekday-type activity or something along those lines).

Also see here, a lenient summary by Rabbi Rabinovitch’s student, Rabbi Eli Reif: https://www.toraland.org.il/%D7%9E%D7%90%D7%9E%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%9D/%D7%98%D7%9B%D7%A0%D7%95%D7%9C%D7%95%D7%92%D7%99%D7%94-%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%A4%D7%95%D7%90%D7%94/%D7%98%D7%9B%D7%A0%D7%95%D7%9C%D7%95%D7%92%D7%99%D7%94-%D7%95%D7%94%D7%9C%D7%9B%D7%94/%D7%A9%D7%99%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A9-%D7%91%D7%93%D7%9C%D7%AA%D7%95%D7%AA-%D7%9E%D7%92%D7%A0%D7%98%D7%99%D7%95%D7%AA-%D7%95%D7%91%D7%9B%D7%A8%D7%98%D7%99%D7%A1-%D7%96%D7%99%D7%94%D7%95%D7%99-%D7%93%D7%99%D7%92%D7%99%D7%98%D7%9C%D7%99/
