Door Opening and Closing Sound Effect from April 11, 1965

Details

The audio commences with the distinct, creaking sound of an old door being opened. The rusty hinge moans in protest as the door swings open, creating a drawn-out squeaking noise that fills the air. This sound fades into a brief moment of silence, as if the door is held open, suspended in time. This silence is broken by the resounding echo of the door being closed. The creaking sound is replaced by a solid, wooden thud as the door meets its frame. The finality of the sound reverberates, signifying the door has been securely shut. This audio clip, recorded on April 11, 1965, encapsulates the simple yet evocative sound effect of a door being both opened and closed.
