the difference between door and door_type is that you can imagine from the
key-name what door_type is about, while using "door" will more easily lead
to different interpretations. You can see this by the current actual value
"automatic" which isn't a door type like hinged / sliding etc. but
describing additional features (a motor to open / close + a device/button
to detect that door shall open / close).
