Doors

This article is about Doors, the mechanic. You may be looking for DOORS, the game, or Grate Doors.

The subject and name of this article has no proper denomination, and is unofficially titled based on conjecture or references found in-game.

Doors are Features located in all floors. They work as an essential progression mechanic for the player. Dupe can also spawn fake Labeled Doors in The Hotel and The Mines. They are the core progression mechanic of the game, and are very important. When a Labeled Door is opened, a new room loads in. This is what makes the layout of the map different every time. There are over 1,250 doors in all of the subfloors and floors, which means, there are different types of doors for each different subfloor and floor!

Types of Doors

• Main/Labeled - Leads to the next room, there's one of these in every room (even without a number such a door is still "Labeled"), all labeled doors can spawn with a timer if on a main floor
• Side/Unlabeled - can either lead to another section of the current room or a random side room depending on where it is
  • Specific Side - Leads to another section of the current room
  • Random Side - Leads to a random side room (or into the vacuum), sometimes replaced by Damaged doors
• Decorative - Does nothing
  • Damaged/Blocked - replaces Random Side doors sometimes
• Elevator/Ending - Leads to another Floor

Trivia

• Before Hotel+, there would be a light on top of every door that would beep when opened. This was probably removed due to the fact that it didn't fit the hotel at all and crucifixes could spawn on the doors now.
• An extra labeled door appears in every floor floating in the void. Opening this door does nothing, and likely just exists to avoid bugs.
• Prior to The Hunt update, there was a low chance that a room would not load correctly or overlapped with another room, making Glitch appear. The door would immediately close and Glitch would unload all the previous rooms, fixing the room.
• The Old Greenhouse entrance Door was just the one we have now just without the number.
• The Greenhouse Entrance used to be in The Electrical Room above the stairwell. This was removed without reason, probably due to The Figure glitching.
• Labeled non-locked doors can be opened by entities, currently the only entities that can do this are Rush (and its clones), Gloombats and Seek.
  • A-60 and Jeff the Killer used to be able to do this previously, but they can't anymore.
• If an opened room is still not fully loaded, somehow the door to the next room will appear visually as locked. However, the key won't exist and lockpicks don't work. When the room is completely loaded, the padlock will disappear.
• The labeled door behind the metal gate that requires a generator to be activated (with all three fuses) can't be opened until the gate button is pressed, likely to avoid exploiters opening the door before finishing the puzzle.
• There is a door exclusive to two very rare rooms in SUPER HARD MODE!!!, the "Take a seat" room and the "Hedge Maze" room. This door curiously has the same sound as sub-doors from The Hotel before the Hotel+ Update.^[1]
