Double Door Rotation Problem

I attempted to make a double door. I set the "hinges" on the bottom left for the left door and bottom right for the right door. When I rotate the doors together by selecting both doors and setting the transform pivot point to individual origins, the doors rotate in opposite directions. 


any tips on how to make them rotate in the same direction ?

    Hi Dawg DooG ggc_wolfx3m ,

    There are many ways to do this; one would be to use a constraint on one door and rotate the other (mind the Inverted Axis):

    Or, if the doors are the same, I'd use a Mirror Modifier (you can probably us the door frame as Mirror Object, instead of the Empty):

    If you're animating it, you can also just rotate them individually, one by one. You rotate the first one then the other one. Since it's only two doors it's not a big problem to manually do it.
