Do you sleep with the door open or closed??

open for us-  if we close the door at all, it's only mostly closed-- never all the way. 

We have cats and dogs and need to hear what's going on (aka, whether they're getting into something they shouldn't).  Also because one of our cats is SUPER-ANNOYING about wanting to get into ANY closed door-  she sticks her paw underneath, rattles the door, yowls, etc.   (and it's not that she sleeps on the bed with us, because she usually doesn't-  she just wants to know that she *can* come in if she wants to, lol!) 

ETA:  also open because my DH is uber-cautious and if someone would ever happen to break in he doesn't want to feel *trapped* in the bedroom if the door is closed.  He wants to be able to hear what's going on in the rest of the house.  

Closed. We used to sleep with it open after DD moved out. After tripping and falling over the dog in the dark twice (once with injuries), the dog was kicked out of the bedroom and the door stays shut. He got used to it after the first few nights and now doesn't annoy us.

This.

Either. It depends on my mood and the dogs. It’s usually open unless they are driving me crazy, then I shut them out 

We always kept the door closed. Mostly because of the cats. However, this summer our bedroom just got too hot and we decided to put a fan at the top of the stairs to bring the cooler air into our room. It worked wonderfully. Turns out the cats aren't really all that bad anymore. They were pretty excited the first night or two to have free roam of our room at night, but that got old to them quickly. Now we rarely see them unless their food dish is too "low" for their taste...as in they can see the bottom, but even that is rare because the boys make sure their food dish is topped off before bed.

Closed because the dog sleeps in my room, and if I leave it opened, he goes in and out of the room all night and keeps me awake. If the door is closed, he sleeps all night.

Closed - it's always been closed. I've never slept with a bedroom door open, even when I was a kid.

Depends if someone is in the kitchen with the light on - closed.  Otherwise - open.

Closed. I am a very light sleeper and noises/movements in the hall would wake me. Plus I keep it closed to keep my dogs in - the little one thinks she is a watch dog and would go downstairs and “monitor” - bark! But when she is kept in my room she’s “off duty” and is quiet. Plus I always heard it safer to keep it closed in case of a fire.

Closed for fire safety reasons. In the past 18 months there have been two significant House fires in my neighborhood. One family lost everything. That goodness no one was hurt in either.

That. And besides, both my girls (cats) would scream bloody murder if they were locked out of the bedroom!

Closed because of fire safety.

Closed, safer in a fire

The German Shepherd Dog will throw herself against my door if she wants to sleep with me and can’t
