- This is the longer version of my video that explains the features of 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.

The tech he is using to do this is actually from the late 60's early 70's or about. I should know, I'm a commercial auto door tech for 15 years. I repair/install stuff exactly like this all day long. Pneumatic auto doors are old school but still used in some cases. Now it's small low current drawing electric motor gearboxes and digital controls that operate swinging or, in his case, sliding doors. Looks like he got his hands on some old pneumatic parts or borrowed the idea to do this. Either way, I give him props as he obviously must be mechanically inclined. I myself have a auto swing door that leads from my garage into my house. After my garage door opens then the auto door into my home opens. Has a electric lock even. My coworker has a auto slider in his house too.

imagine an argument and you can't slam a door. You'll awkwardly press a button and leave.
"Fine, I'm leaving!!!!" - Presses button with angry face.
what if it malfunctions and it only closes part way and you are still standing there mashing the button trying to close it. AWKWARD.......
normie twice removed Yeah, and you have to stand there like an idiot for ages while it opens really slowly 😀
hahaha
It's called the slow burn...
This is the second home in which ruclips.net/user/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU we've replaced our "regular" doorbell with a Ring video doorbell and we really enjoy it. It is very easy to install and it works very well, with a clear picture through the app and good in-home use (we added the chime, which is also easy to install and doesn't require another thought to use).
You know ever since I was a little boy watching episodes of Star Trek I thought to myself I was born in the wrong time. I have often wanted to have a home with features like automatic doors laundry chutes , waste and recyclable chutes, anyway I rarely take the time to comment on videos but it's made me reconsider my earlier mentioned thought maybe I'm not living in the wrong time after all this is just too damn cool you've inspired me if only for a moment.
Very cool!
My grandparents built a house in 1974, which had 5 single pocket doors. My grandad had the idea to motorize all 5 pocket doors, by putting electric motors to each of them, in the attic above. I remember pushing those buttons over and over again in amazement, until he finally told me he was going to have to sell the house just to pay the electric bill.
LOL hope ya stopped
OMG.. I'd love to have one for my office/room. Very well done bud.. you should market this!
OK, So this is even more amazing than the others one's I have seen! Hello New Office Door!
needs a angry option to slam shut when your pissed off :D
Sophie Cannon
very good
Just put something breakable by the door instead.
One that shuts the door fast so there either trapped in or trapped out
I wish he had an installation tutorial, it'd probably be a viral craze and be like "the shit" to have a door like this, especially among the gamer community.
It's all good and well until someone gets crushed in the middle of these doors.
@@BAGINAZARD It would be easy to create a sensor using arduino, to prevent any accident
@@r00tsie85 sensor isn't any efficient in this case, it should just reopen when it is stuck on its way to close, just like train doors
wee ree If you use a sensor and your standing in front of it won’t shut.What are you talking about?
@@JonahStubbs what
1-2-3-4, that's same combination I've got on my luggage!
Brad Gamwell I don't have time for punching in codes, so I just use the Schwartz to open it.
That reminds me, I need to change the code on my luggage.
Oh thats nice, where do you live fam
Im surrounded by assholes....
Great, open your luggage and his door will pop open right while he is laying pipe in the maid.
Years I've waited to see more people integrating Star Trek inspired tech into normal ever day life 👍
I use a manually operated door knob
You're living in the 19th century...
I use my knob.
You fucking savage.
All the doors on my starship use this, where do you guys live that you still use knobs?
You don't use your knob any more? Man, you should see a urologist. He can probably get it working again.
Love!! Always loved pocket doors, and this is even better. Sure would like to see Picard and Riker walk through those doors lol ❤❤
You need to make an audio chip so it plays the door opening noise from TOS.
That would make it perfect.
This "tool"? You mean the handle?
You need to work on sealing your house so you can get it into orbit
Have you ever been trapped?
Oh maybe you just used the transporter
that's so freakin cool!
I remember an interview where Deforest Kelley was visiting The Next Generation sets, and he and Gates McFadden were talking to each other about the difference between each Enterprise set. And she told him that the Enterprise-D doors were actually operated by pulling a rope. And she demonstrated doing it, cause they had the set wall taken apart, showing it’s ‘guts.’ It was kinda interesting. But, what I see here is a little different
Galaxy Quest.
this is by far the most creative and cool doors i've seen in a home and im a carpenter that has hung more doors than i'd like to think about. definitelt going to be looking into this more. great idea and thanks for sharing, my kid will get a kick out of his new door
id go with vid monitoring peephole to see whos on other side of door, just for more cool factor although you really dont need it
Wow there's so many talented people out there. Meanwhile I'm just sitting here eating an entire pack of family size Oreos.
Why do I make poor decisions?!
Oreos are tasty
A poor decision would have been regular Oreos, so congratulations. You're on the right track
Because you ask the internet for advice.
Muhammad T its ok, maybe after eating your Oreos you will think of something even better!
Are they double stuffed?
That's some really nice work. Impressive. I was thinking about the problem of "false alarms" from people walking by. The only way to do it would be to detect their direction so you can know if they intend to come in. That's doable, but typically you wouldn't want that. You would want them to knock and you find out who it is, etc... before giving permission for them to enter.
THEREFORE the only people it really needs to open for is the residents or if it's an office, the ones who work there. So all you have to have is an app that sends a blue-tooth signal from your smart phone or watch ALONG WITH the direction detection, and you're golden. In fact, that should be a patentable product.
I wish you displayed the mechanism that moved the door back and forth. Was it off the shelf? or did you design the door movement mechanism from scratch?
you bloody ibasil, "mechanism would be the air ram used to open the door! he showed electronics for control digital electronics or air routing hose's are not mechanical. Who's a dumb ass now? "stay in school kids and don't do drugs like this fuckwit"
It's a shame when you can't even ask a couple simple, honest questions without clowns like *Hugh G Wrection* making a smart-ass response. Little kiddies like that don't have the first clue how to interact with people, and you can tell by his username he's just a dumb kid with ZERO life experience. So typical on RUclips nowadays.
*Hugh G Wrection* Yep... in tears here. You sure put me in my place. All yield to Hugh . . . lol
Children.
Ex wife... that's a good one. You aren't fooling anyone, kid but you can pretend you've been with a woman if it gives you comfort...lol
*Hugh G Wrection* Whatever you gotta tell yourself... ;)
I remember this. This was amazing and think this guy started the third trend
Will the pneumatic thingy will fuck up when there is someone or an object in the middle of the door?
nope. 400 psi. will kill you. but will still close. lost a cat that way.... "malfunction"
David Beppler lolol
That has got to be the coolest thing I've ever seen....I need this as our front room when you open the door it eats up the room banging into anyone who is seated near it so I need a door that flatly opens instead of full swing and this would be amazing and make the room seem larger!...Gosh, this guy should go into business I would hire him....I would even become a Trekkie for this, beam me up x
Great work - wait till that attic compressor tops itself up at 3am
Wow! How did it hold up after 7 years? Crazy this just hit my recommended list.
That is awesome. That should be the door to the man cave for sure!!!!
Why did it take me so long to find this video? This is too cool.
Though it does operate much like a subway train door but it is FANTASTIC!!
I want one! This is exactly what I want for my room! I'm still a teenager but when I move out I will SO build something like this!!
I would still add the motion sensor, for when it is working on the timer. If someone is still crossing or standing under the door it will not close and override the timer.
Julio Gutierrez It is most likely not that strong because it is using an air compressor. I would suspect that it is strong enough for the doors to move, but it doesn't have enough strength to do any damage. (Unless you have your head in between it...)
Program the door opening to allow motion reopen, and then motion off when closed.
This is AWESOME. I love this. If you make another one VIDEO EVERYTHING. I want to see it made.
I installed one of these doors going into the room where my Transporter Beam is located.
Hutch5321 I believe you 👀
I tired that but my dilithium crystal matrix burned out, causing a tachyon impulse surge in Jeffrey’s tube 4-sigma.
Tozmo. You need to use a ferrite core to protect the sensitive tachyon flux integrity. Sudden spikes will kill your dilithiums every time.
I appreciate this humor)))
You star wars guys are off the hook!
i will legit pay this guys to come to my house in AZ and install it in my room! NO MATTER WHAT THE COST!
Motion sensor on ceilings looking down? That way you could "blind" them if they saw too far into the hall and room.
Also, in the days before PIR motion detection, there was microwave motion detection that relied on the doppler effect. Passing by such a motion detector parallel to the wall yeilded no change in frequency, so it wouldn't open... walking toward it provided the desired doppler effect and triggered.
Or a good old-fashioned "electric eye" (infrared) beam running across the door frame face. You break the beam and it opens (when in unlocked mode) and also won't close until the beam connects again.
You can adjust some motion sensors so they only trigger with close-by movement.
Also, you could use an iris scanner as well! :D
Hee hee... you could also use voice recognition... "My voice is my password" (from the movie "sneakers".
One of the coolest videos I've come across in a long time...!!
I think I found a door that will keep my wife out! Thanks man👍👍
I'm pretty sure this will keep most women out.... Just saying...
Not if she can also open it from the other side ha!!!
I'm curious who he needs to lock in from the outside
Don't worry! His wife will be beamed in.
+mac taggart - "I'm curious who he needs to lock in from the outside"
Hopefully not to hold someone prisoner inside... I assume that when the outside is locked, the button inside will still open the door. ....
Makes sense to be able to lock it from both sides, like any other mechanical/digital door lock. But, I would replaced the button/keyswitch/lock on the inside panel with another keypad, and set a key-code to hold the doors open and a key-code to disable all pneumatics (manual mode).
You allow the door to be locked from the inside so people can't enter when you're inside, like a normal "button in knob" doorknob on a bathroom or bedroom door.
You allow the door to be locked from the outside to prevent people from entering the room while you're away.
I just question the usefulness of a keyswitch with a physical key on the inside panel that seems to just be left inside the keyswitch/lock at all times (while you're in the room). When you have unlocked the doors from the outside, why do you need a key while you're in the room? And, when you leave the room and lock it from the outside, no one can reach (access) the keyswitch inside the room.
Being a long time Trekie, I'm thrilled for you, awesome job.
Also being a long time builder, well, I'm not so sure that would pass code? But who cares, right? It Star Trek!!!
Would you make this and sale it?
Motion activation is a key component to this actually being an improvement on the very old technology known as a door.
+1 well done and well thought out! Good job.
I was expecting this to be stupid, but I admit, it's pretty damn awesome.
i like this a lot, my only complain is the really noisy sound that it makes.... it will wake up anyone sleeping on that room or next to it.... but is a nice idea really..... good job
but the noise is part of what gives it the star trek feel
I can sleep through an Abrahams tank driving through my house, no problem.
Plus, I’m sure it has a silence setting, or an off switch, so it wouldn’t bother anybody
That's loud?
japzone huh?
Magnificent! Well Done Young Man!!!! You're very smart.
Thats so cool. Maybe a button of some sorts on the floor.
I was thinking the same thing. Like before motion sensors when stores had those pressure plates in front of the doors to open when stepped on.
That's pretty awesome! A buddy of mine has been trying to convince me to build star trek doors for my house. I don't know if I will for this house, maybe some in my next one. I did build a couple waterfalls for my room though!
I love your creativity man!
you have to get the star trek electronic door chime from thinkgeek.com
I got a really nice watch from there
jesse1779 I've been to that website before! I love that website!
That is badass! I want one. It just needs the ability to do the door chime like in the show.
Awesome!
A scifi door in a regular house? My guess is that your wife didn't allow him to build a modern, scifi looking house. Oh marriage compromise.
***** I don't see a ring on his finger so i'm pretty sure that isn't the reason.
No,,,this is future sci-fi retro.
It's his parents house
I can see a lot of interesting potential for this door design on future houses :D.
Do you have detailed plans and info available for constructing this door?
Thanks for showing this door and you did a great job!
***** He has the Instructables link in the description.
that's AWESOME Great job, want my entire house like star trek
I would have gone with a pressure matt to open it, depending upon key position.
I remember having many a store manager chasing me away from their grocery stores when I was a kid playing with the pressure mats in front of the doors. :) Back in the days before the motion sensors that are now used.
Pressure mat is a good idea...
Does it have any sort of clearance detection to prevent closing on objects/meat bags?
when can you get here and install that for me :-)
Although your automatic door opener is better (especially the sound) my grandfather built a house in 1972 which had every door on the ground floor of his ranch style home, (except the front door and rear sliding glass door) on an automatic opening system, including the door from the garage to the kitchen. Every door had its own electric operator mounted above it, in the attic. As a kid, I LOVED going there, just so I could spend the day walking through the house, opening and closing his doors. It actually caused him to regret putting them in because all of us grandchildren kept opening them, constantly. I’m actually being serious. It would piss him off!😂. (Now that I’m 45, I understand his frustration)
Long story short, excellent job and cool design!
what if someone is standing in the middle when the door closes?
stupidest question ever
+Justin Dunn Then they obviously didn't want in/out of the room badly enough. They pay the ultimate penalty.
+Sunny Pandey It's actually not. With kids or animals they may stand in the doorway and it doesn't sound like he has a sensor checking to see if it's closed. So it could seriously hurt someone.
+Keyeszx Probably not the way it is, but you could install garage door springs or closing hydraulics to the system if you want a greater guillotine effect. You're right though, a sensor would be better for kids and dogs. You would need two, one low and one high. When both activate the doors stay open, when just the lower sensor activates the doors snap shut.
+1Howdy1 someone doesn't like dogs....
you know you're a hard core Trekker when you do that!!!.... sweet
The fact that the door farts every time you open it kind of makes it annoying. Imagine trying to sneek out in the middle of the night to pee, and the door farts the dog wakes up, he farts too because he got scared to death, everyone smells the fart the dog made, assumes there is a gas leak so they wake up and quickly grab all their valuables to run out of the house only to realize it was a dog fart. All of this because of a door.
Roberosein good point
The manual mode he explained should fix your issue
Hahahaha
Roberosein 😂😂😂😂😂
Roberosein not sure that how life works. I know the difference between farts and actual gas. Some of us do.
0:18- Hey, One More Time! What a pleasant surprise. I actually love Daft Punk, especially the Discovery album XD
You must not have any pets, the noise would drive them crazy...
They all died during the development phase...
this is so bad ass. I was looking for mechanical door openings for my gun closet and it brought me to this channel! Unfortunately I can't have pocket doors because of location of the closet. This is pretty bad ass though!
Guy invented elevator doors
its 2 pockets doors on a motor
Except these ones will squash you if you don't cross quickly.
Coolest thing I seen all day
So what happens when power fails? Perhaps a manual high pressure hand pump could be kept on the inside to allow escape?
Realy ?? Did you even watch the whole video ?? you can just relase preasured air and open door by hand
Ah, but how do you get in in the power fails while you are out?
"relase" ? does he "re-lase" with a star trek "lase"(r) ?
Let’s assume the locking of the door is mainly for privacy reasons, not to secure anything of a high value. The system could be setup to automatically release the air pressure upon power failure, allowing manual operation.
sledgemeister reroute energy from the warp core.
Dude... DUDE!!! THAT IS AWESOME. Really want one of those. Definitely really cool. Great Job. Well thought out.
This isn't even close to the original Enterprise doors. The original had someone in the walls to open and close the door when someone approached. 😂
Micah Watson Too bad we abolished slavery, amirite?
I would add audio from the happy to please you door from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy! Cool Door, Man! :)
That's a narrow doorway...
Mike Hawk that's a standard interior door, how big are you?
*nickd1961* I'm 6'5 at 240 lbs but I have no problem accessing 'normal' doorways in homes. Maybe this one just looks smaller...
another nice modern upgrade!!!!!! very nice idea since swinging doors always seem to get in the way when moving things around like furniture......
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat on earth?!
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen.
I think the sound when opening it's nice in the morning :))))
That Is really cool. I want every door in my house to work like this!
THAT IS SO SO SO DOPE BROTHER, GREAT JOB, GREAT DOOR, GREAT VID!
What is the electricity is out, due to a hurricane for example.
You got me, just subscribed and saved video to watch later
just like a plain sliding door, but with sound, and automatic, either way good work, I have a manual sliding door at home.
uiproductions I watched, subscribed, turned notifications on and gave you a like and two comments.
This is probably one of the coolest nerd adaptations I've seen in a home application. I only have one issue with it. It's pneumatic. The fact that you have an air compressor constantly at full capacity. Even a small tank can cause a lot of damage if it ever ruptures. I hope it never does. I would probably opt for electronic actuators, or something along that line so it's not under pressure.
This is so cool! Clever little project. You may want to consider not including background music in these types of videos, I found it very distracting when I was trying to focus on the details of what you'd built!
To make it a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy door, just add a recorded robotic voice where the door tells you how happy and fulfilled it feels opening and closing for you.
Ok, that's the coolest thing I've seen in a long long time... since like... Shatner played Kirk.
This is friggin awesome man! Love it! Can you come do that to all my doors.
This is pretty slick. I am surprised Sheldon Cooper doesn't have one of these on his bedroom yet . . .
Very cool. I would add a spinning red light, dim the main lights, and and play an audio of a submarine dive alarm and "Dive, dive..." - then the door opens.
That sound, spot on.
Pretty slick. Very nice and well built. Maybe you should be installing them in customers homes. Make a living doing this. And in panic rooms too.
It actually makes sense that the control box is inside the room because if the door stops working or something you could manually release it and escape
Just great! Both concept and execution.
This is great. More people should utilize compressed air in their homes.
i love that you used pneumatics for this! it sounds so much more badass than if you run it off electric motors. pchshhhhhhhhhhhschnk
This is genius! 1:55 is a good way for emergencies such as a fire, you can turn them all off so you can just simply slide it open fast and escape!
That's awesome.. I want that on every door at my place 👍😊
Your control panel code should be *1701* so all your Star Trek friends can get in your * ready room* 😂
I want that door!
Great job! Love the ingenuity!
That is so cool I wish we could have that in our house!
Do the doors have safety sensors in case someone’s body part gets stuck in between them?
Nice pocket door. Thanks for sharing.
Even cooler would be making the door look like two mirror panels. You might also want to automate the manual override so you can sneak out of your room at night to get something from the kitchen without making noise. Great project!
