usually when that occurs for me, it's because I cloned the door. I found that for each door entity, it has to be made seperately. Also, you have to select both the door, and it's origin in order to make "function door ", or "rotating door" work.

If it is an entity already then if will fail to create one . Check there is nothing else selected that shouldn't be or that it is not a func_door or func_rotateing door already , press esc then reselect it and the origin brush if it has one func_door may not need an origin brush but func_rotateingdoor will need one . Easiest way is to just remake it .
