It's as much a hovercraft as a pancake is a waffle.

Sure, you would probably need a stationary handle to grip the door, but I have never seen it done for home applications

       <slightly off topic>There is a classic Goon Show (the Red Fort) based around Eccles guarding a door. It is simply a door in a frame - it's not in a wall or fence or anything. Eccles spends hours walking this way then that way around the entire door. "Wait a minute. Why don't I just open the door and go through it. That way, I'll get to the other side quicker." He does, and opening the door discovers an entire army that surge through the door and invade India. Maybe this "idea" is precisely for this kind of situation?</slightly off topic>
