Click to open door

[bosjeindongen]

I made a door and want to open it by clicking on it. But when I rotate it to
open it turns around its own centerpoint. Does anyone knowhow I can move
this point?

If you made the door in a modeling package, then you can change the pivot
point of the model... You want to place the pivot on the door's edge.
Otherwise, you can rotate an object relative to another object... so you
might place an empty group at the doors edge, then rotate the door relative
to that.

Here's an example using the technique that Dave suggested:
