"In this segment we are going to show you how to open a few different types of mime doors. So you want to picture the door in front of you. The height, how heavy the door is where the doorknob is and where the hinges are. Does it open outward? Or am I going to be opening it inward? Also, let?s say I get a knock on my door. I might want to actually check the peep hole. Unlock it. Maybe there is a dead bolt on it too. Just open it enough to talk through the crack if I don't trust the person. And there is also of course the revolving doors. There you really want to picture that you're in that triangle plate of glass. You want to walk up to it and you actually want to put a bit more weight into the push. Let go and walk through. Those are just a few examples on how to use doors with mime. Here, on Expert Village."
