Prop door rotating

Entity description

An entity used to place a standard door in the world.

Note:A handle is placed upon the door in game, but the handle does not show in Hammer.

For a sliding door, use func_door instead. For a brush-based rotating/pivoting door, use func_door_rotating instead.

To make a pair of doors open and close together, give them the same targetname.

Note:props_doors/door01_dynamic.mdl is not a valid rotating door prop. It is instead meant for use as an npc_furniture entity. See the door struggle at the end of d1_trainstation_03 for an example of its use.
