My advise is that if (one really wants to hang a windchime) it would be better to hang a 6 rod (hollow) wind chime instead of 5 rods wind chime.

Symbolically 5 rods could invariably; represent "bad earth #5 element).

A six rod windchime symbollically represents 6 metal or `Big metal'.

You could hang the wind chime 1/2 feet away from the door.

In my opinion, it would not be advisable to place an altar facing the main door. Or exactly facing the main door. The rationale is that it may be considered `disrespectful' as this may imply that the altar `gods' are tasked to look after the home. Much like a `security' guard.

It would be advisable instead to move the altar (away) from or directly facing the main door.

Since the wind chime is outside the house, it would not have a major impact on the altar (if u continue to place it there).

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
