Opening and closing a door shouldn’t be the hardest part of your day.

DOOR-E is designed to make everyday movement smoother, simpler, and more independent—at home and beyond.

Because small barriers add up. And removing them changes everything.

Accessibility is often thought of as a big, complex challenge—but sometimes it starts with small, practical changes.

This ADA National Network checklist is a great resource for businesses looking to remove barriers where they can.

At Open Door Robotics, we spend a lot of time thinking about the everyday obstacles people face—and how thoughtful design (and technology) can help reduce them.

⬇️ Check out the full post and resource

Even though it is April Fools Day, it is not a joke that businesses are required to remove architectural barriers when readily achievable to comply with the ADA. Make a plan for your next project using our checklist here: https://adata.org/factsheet/small-business-and-ada-readily-achievable-requirements

One thing we think about constantly: safety.

DOOR-E is designed for safe, controlled operation.

Whether that’s a person, a pet, or a mobility aid, our little bot stops if something gets in the way.

Independence should never come at the expense of peace of mind.

For individuals with limited mobility, opening and closing doors can be a daily challenge.

We know no two situations are the same.

What’s one everyday task you wish was just a little easier?

We’re listening, learning, and building alongside this community. 💙

Not all robots need to look human to make a real difference.

DOOR-E keeps it simple, safe, and human-first:
• Tool-free setup
• Lightweight + portable
• Control it by voice or app

Because independence shouldn’t be complicated.

Every prototype brought us one step closer.
And DOOR-E has come a long way!

From early, award-winning concepts to a fully realized system, every iteration has helped shape what DOOR-E is today.

Built with intention. Refined through experience.
And ready for what’s next. 💙

What started as a solution for a friend became something bigger.

DOOR-E was created to help people with mobility challenges open and close doors—safely, independently, and on their own terms.

Because a simple barrier shouldn’t stand in the way of everyday life.

We're glad you're here. 💙 Help spread the word on DOOR-E, and be on the lookout for a big announcement next week!

Open Door Robotics was founded on a simple belief: accessibility technology should be simple, portable, and affordable.

Most importantly—designed for the people who rely on it.

Follow the journey!

They say there’s treasure at the end of the rainbow. 🌈

DOOR-E is focused on something a little closer:
the door at the end of the hallway.

And making sure it opens for everyone.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀
