Boundary and Compound Wall

For the boundary wall door, zone the whole plot; for the main door, zone the constructed area. The main door is the one through which you actually enter the house or factory building, not the boundary wall gate through which a vehicle enters, and both should fall on good pads, the main door above all.

From the deity. Imagine the deity seated facing out: do not live on the deity's own left side, while the deity's right side is very good. On either side your wall must not touch the temple wall; if you leave a gap and build your own separate wall there is no negative effect, though the right side still gives the better results. Many people living on the left, touching the temple wall, have been ruined.

Take the constructed area. For the boundary wall gate the centre of the whole plot is used, and for the main door the centre of the constructed area; this is taught in planning.

Both, for different purposes. The whole plot inside the boundary wall is used for the boundary gate and for placing parking, servant quarters, pet shelters and guard rooms, while the house is zoned on its constructed area alone, which decides its main door and rooms. If the house is built almost up to the boundary, leaving about 3 ft, take the whole plot; if 15 to 20 ft is left around a 30 by 50 ft house, zone the 30 by 50 ft area for the house, otherwise half of its zones are lost.

Use the whole plot to locate the boundary wall gate and the goshala, and zone the constructed area for the house.

When the route to the boundary gate is heen bahu (anti-clockwise) or prishth bhang (circling the house), when there is any dwar vedh in front such as a T-point, shool vedh, pole, tree, pit or garbage, when the house faces a cremation ground, or when the door is out of plumb and leans inward or outward. In any of these cases even doors on N3, N4, E3, E4, S4 or W4 do not give their results.

Yes. A correctly placed door with an anti-clockwise (heen bahu) exit gives fewer good results than it should. A door on a negative pad such as E5 or E6, whose route runs clockwise to a gate on W4 or W5, gives much less negative effect than the pad alone would.

No, it is not right at all.

No. If the pit outside the gate is permanently covered, it causes no problem.

Yes, if the offset is within one pad (11.25 degrees). For example, a gate on N4 with a main door spread over N4 and N5, mostly in N4, or a main door on N4 with the gate on the N4-N5 junction, still counts as utsang (sammukh) dwar.

Shikhi sits there and the spot holds heat and fire, so a house door at E1 can cause fire incidents and accidents. A boundary-wall gate is allowed, being in the pishach bhoomi, and so is the door of a temple or other religious building, a school or a college, because such buildings represent Jupiter and become the yogi's own home. A kitchen at Shikhi keeps health poor and brings memory loss, money problems, anger, indecision and a blocked mind, and a toilet there in the North-East stops vansh vriddhi (growth of the family line).

The amla tree represents Shikhi devta: in summer, on the day of Shikhi devta, women go to worship the amla tree, and that is really the worship of Shikhi. So an amla tree planted at Shikhi in the boundary area (pishach bhoomi), an amla in a pot, or even amla fruit kept there keeps the zone full of energy. A potted amla was also advised in the doubt session, since trees extend energy at right angles, as taught in vriksh vastu.
