Sometimes when I walk though automatic doors like at a supermarket they jam up. Fot a while it happened every time, its very annoying cuz you think its going to close on you or something.
They usually jam open and the motors are still running and buzzing. Alot of the time the sensors dont pick me up when I'm going to them either... I am short but kids go through these doors everyday with no trouble. so why dont they like me lol

its funny that it is automatically assumed that I think a "spirit" is effecting the door. I was more meaning the way some people cant touch anything metal they get shocked. And more so the scientific reasons for it.. also I dont wear perfume.

I am an automatic door repair man. We often find that our door a prone to jam when some people wear the wrong perfume. For some strange and curious reason, they react very strongly to perfumes smelling of patcholi or other aromas. There is no repair nor fix that we can do that will stop the door from reacting such. Sorry.

Well let' see you first assume that such things as automatic doors and supermarkets exist. Everyone knows that video footage and photographs of such mystical places are all fake. Further, just because you and millions of others report to have visited supermarkets and seen automatic doors is simple eye witness testimony and human experience as evidence of anything is useless.
If this did happen (and there is no evidence that it did) then you are only remembering the times that the doors failed to work (by complete chance) and not all the times that they have worked properly for you. So, now that everything the skeptics will say (about everything) is out of the way.

I am curious if this happens at one location more than others. Perhaps your lower end stores spend less on automatic doors (and repairs) than higher end stores.
I would try Macy's or Nordstrom and see if this happens to you. You might keep a record of when this happens (as well as a record of when it does not) to see what percentage of the time this actually happens.
Some people do reportedly effect electrical objects (street lights, watches, etc.)
Below is a link about the Pauli effect.

If a door fails to operate perfectly every time then it must be a spirit causing it to malfunction. There is no other possible explanation. You should do some research at the county records department to see if anyone was murdered near the electric door. Maybe there was an insane asylum located there at some time in the past.

Tell the door spirit to go to the light. I would recommend you burn some sage root and sprinkle salt around it. Whatever you do, don't talk to the door spirit because that could open a portal to the Other Side and cause bad things to happen to you. If none of that works, ask a priest to come and bless the door to exorcise the negative energy that's obviously built up there.

There was some old, grainy film footage from the Soviet Union that proves door spirits are real. The phenomenon has also been studied by a group recognized by a well-known science foundation that shows door malfunctions to be caused by spirits.

The supermarket doors work off of a electric wire loop buried in the concrete floor in front of the door. Just like the ones that pick up your car at a traffic light.
The only way they can malfunction is if they are in need of repair. There is nothing that would pick up one person more or less than another person.
There is no logical reason they would work off of a smell of any sort.

maybe your not so hot??? LOL I thought most automatic doors ran on infrared sensors. They open when you approach them because they sense your body temps. Are you wearing a lot of clothes when your trying to enter them, like a heavy jacket or something of that sort. Either that, or your walking too slow.

rb....That's very very strange...that automatic doors react to perfume. Are you joshin' us???
EDIT...OHHHH pd...Have you CONVERTED???????
EDIT...Since it's not perfume..maybe you should go to the "Consumer Electronics...Other Electronics"section. I don't know what other section it could be under.
BTW...pd is a skeptic...with multiple personalities. That was one of his "alter egos" speaking.
