'''Door''' is a movable structure used to open and close off an entrance, typically consisting of a panel that swings on hinges or that slides or spins inside a space.

== Construction and components ==
A door's essential and primary purpose is to provide security by controlling access to the doorway (portal). Conventionally, it is a panel that fits into the portal of a building, room, or vehicle.
