Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. - John 10:1,2.

Further down in this same chapter, Jesus said at John 10:7-10, “‘Most truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All those that have come in place of me are thieves and plunderers; but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the door; whoever enters through me will be saved, and he will go in and out and find pasturage. The thief does not come unless it is to steal and slay and destroy. I have come that they might have life and might have it in abundance.’”

Not too sure about this one but I would "assume" that it means something to the effect of...if you are going to enter somewhere, enter the way that you would expect someone else to enter into the space that you are in. Don't go sneaking in trying to be unnoticed, you are obviously going in there for a reason...just my opinion is all. But going off of "christian" teachings the door is Jesus. But it is all in the interpretation.....

Sounds like Jesus Christ Lamb of God is the door they're referring to

Jesus Christ the Messiah. No man can get to the Father except through Jesus.

Though it is not apparent in the part you quoted, the door is Jesus (see v. 7).

The verse is saying that the only way to God is Jesus. Jesus is the door way to God.

Jesus is the door. There is only one way to Heaven and that is through Him.
