Tools for this tag

The =* tag allows us to describe the type of door being mapped. The =* tag would usually be combined with an entrance tag, such as entrance=* for outdoor doors, indoor=door for interior doors, or another tag like amenity=loading_dock, or amenity=parking_entrance. These tags are relevant for wheelchair and indoor routing.

Tagging

The =* tag must be placed on the node node, which represents the door. Several values allow for distinguishing door types.

Values

Key Value Element Comment Rendering Photo
yes node A generic door, use this only if you don't know the kind of door or if it doesn't fit in another value.
hinged node The traditional swinging door – mounted with door hinges and a vertical axis of rotation.
sliding node A sliding door, e.g. at an entrance to a shop.
revolving node A revolving door, e.g at an entrance to a shopping centre.
folding node A folding door – allows smaller footprint.
trapdoor node A trapdoor / a hatch. Flush with the surface of the floor.
overhead node A door rolling (or swinging) from overhead, mostly a garage door. Used mainly for vehicles, not humans. (See also entrance=garage.)
no node If the door itself is removed or the entrance is simply a hole in the wall, set the value to no.
user defined node All commonly used values according to Taginfo
