[[File:Door-icon.png|left]]A '''door''' is an [[build mode|architectural object]] in [[The Sims (series)|The Sims]] games.
 
Doors must be placed on [[wall]]s, as their function is to allow Sims to pass through walls. All doors are automatic; they open as a Sim approaches and close shortly after the Sim has gone through.<ref>There is a glitch with both ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business|Open for Business]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2: Bon Voyage|Bon Voyage]]'': sometimes after using a door it will stay open, and never close. This can be annoying, but easily fixed by deleting the door with [[Moveobjects]] on and replacing it. It may also be due to the type of lot and or door type, and object that's adjacent to it (when an apartment door has a telephone hanged next to it in the unit, which with it causes the door to stay open</ref><ref>If an object such as a ceiling light occupies the space a door opens through, it may act to keep the door from closing. Moving the object may allow the door to close.</ref> [[File:TS2Doors.png|thumb|Doors in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' from various expansion packs]] Certain doors come with windows that allow light to pass through.
 
Doors typically use two 1x1 grid space, each on the either side of the wall, and are by one story high, though certain ones may be bigger. In ''[[The Sims 4]]'', doors with a single entrance take up and share two tites as they're centered between the two squares. Also in The Sims 4, walls are varies in height so a door may only fit higher walls. ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'' introduced a multi-story door that is two levels high, as opposed to just one.
 
In ''The Sims 2'', It's said that unless the lot is an apartment lot, the door with both an indoor tile and outdoor is determined as the front door If: it is next to the letter box, OR the one that's closest to the outdoor rubbish bin, or the public phone booth.<ref>https://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?p=5469274#post5469274</ref> It could also be believe that a door that is place last outside and at the lowest floor is chosen as the front door. This prone to be troublesome and inconvient for lots that have garage doors. In ''The Sims 3'' and later games, doors on residential lots can be selected by the player to act as front ones. Visitors, delivery, service and Sims from the [[welcome wagon|welcoming wagon]] will gather around waiting by after one of whom ring the doorbell of the front door.
 
==Locking, accessibility and restrictions==
Line 23:
 
In [[The Sims 4]], the ability to lock door returns in [[The_Sims 4/Patch 21|patch 21]]. For each door, player can lock door for selected Sims. If a door is locked for at least one Sim, player can alter the lock list and allow access for specific sims.
 
During certain circumstances, the locking might be rendered useless. This happens particularly to prominent events like [[burglar]]y or the arrival of [[social worker]] due to child neglection.
 
===Doors and pets===
Line 37 ⟶ 39:
The '''Zeddy-Lock Celebrity Security Door''' in ''[[The Sims: Superstar]]'' only allow Sims with 3 stars of [[Fame]] to pass. Sims who do not meet this requirement will experience route failure if they are directed to go into a space that can only be accessed through this door. The door is particularly useful for protecting [[award]]s from being stolen by the [[Obsessed Fan]], who can normally break into houses to steal them but is unable to bypass this door.
 
{{confirm|''[[The Sims 4: Get Famous]]'' includes the '''Starlet's Repose Door''' which similarly only allows a 3-star celebrity access through the door.The door and a dressing room will appear on the [[Plumbob Pictures]] studio lot when an actor Sim shoots a film.}} The expansion also adds three VIP Exclusivity Door. Player can select fame requirement for access, which may create a [[bouncer]] to guard the door.

===Dorm room doors===

{{split|Too long for a door type. Include Sims and item of the room, which are not directly related. Duplicate with the one in Dorm page.}}
The '''Myne Door''' in ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'' allows Sims to claim the door in order to secure the room beyond for themselves. These doors are present in all premade [[dormitory]] lots and are typically built there to designated individual dorm rooms. When building or modifying a dormitory, each Myne Door must be placed so the picture area faces outward, and there should only be one door leading into a dorm room. This means that multiple-occupancy rooms are not possible, nor are "suites" in which two dorm rooms share a bathroom.
