Swinging doors are mounted with spring loaded hinges that hold the door securely in place but allow persons to pass through the doorway by simply pushing the door open. After the individual passes through the doorway, the swinging door or doors returns to a closed position automatically.  Swinging doors are designed as both full sized doors that completely fill the doorway or as smaller doors that cover only a middle portion of the passage. Saloon doors are an example of swinging doors that generally are not full sized. The saloon door helps to separate two specific areas while still allowing some degree of visibility between the connected areas. Full-sized swinging doors are often employed in restaurants as a way to separate the dining room from the kitchen.  Using doors of this type help to block the kitchen sounds from entering the dining room and insulate from temperature changes.
