It might slide into the doorframe with a sci-fi hiss and recognize your approach to unlock, but it’s a 100% manual, electric sliding door. If you walk out of your basic apartment and don’t manually close the door when you leave, it WILL be open when you get back. It’ll stay open the whole time you’re home. Who ever saw a manual, powered, sliding door? If you didn’t realize this was a dystopia, there you go. That’s hysterical. I wonder if they set it up so you’d get burglarized for neglecting basic security. And if not, why not?!
Whoever thought that up is an evil genius.
Who ever saw a manual powered sliding door?
Anyone with a pocket door in their house. They’re relatively common, especially in smaller homes where you don’t want to lose limited floor space to a swinging door (e.g. a small bathroom).
Pretty rare as an entry door, although it would have the benefit of being much harder to kick in.
Pocket doors do slide, but I’ve never seen one of those with a powered mechanism before. I can see why my sentence structure could be confused though. Let me rephrase.
A manual, powered, sliding door.
