Air-powered Star Trek style door


This is a video showing the automatic sliding door I built in my house. It is powered by air, it is fully enclosed in the wall, and it has the appearance of a standard interior door.

Make it so Number One

Although nice, it would've been cooler if he put a motion sensor on it so that way you wouldn't have to push the button to open it.

A motion sensor would be cool, but would suck if it is a door that you walk by frequently

Quite elaborate for one door of the house. It would be annoying to have a bunch of doors like that in a hallway, especially with motion sensing.

It would be fun to have a camera set up when guest first walk through
