Flexible doors are most often seen in supermarkets as access points to storage areas. They are also used in factories as low maintenance doors to keep heat and noise in.
The revolving door is commonly seen in hotels and at airports. It has many of the attributes of an automatic door. Its operation can be hands-free or manual. The door can be fixed on a central axis or on an oval track.
