Not much to say about it, just a minimalistic circuit of an automated door. Note that the door not just closes itself when it is opened by the Pressure Plates but also when it gets opened directly.

A minimalistic circuit of two automated doors needing only one timer. Note that the doors not just close theirselfes when it is opened by the pressure plates but also when they get opened directly.

A simple automated door made of solid blocks and a Block Activator. Don't forget that the wall behind the Block Activator (Active Stone) has to be equal to the wall behind the blocks which should be modified.
In some cases, you might want to avoid placing a wall behind outer blocks for design purpose, in order to change those blocks anyways, you can just add a second Block Activator to modify blocks without walls too.

An automated solid door, offering the additional feature to be locked from the inside using a Lever. When locked, the Pressure Plates will simply do nothing, otherwise it will open like every other door. The red and green torches above it, indicate the current locked / unlocked status.

This automated solid door can only be opened by two players. As one of those Levers beneath the floor is toggled, the blocks between them above will become active, so that the player who just toggled the Lever can not move over to the other. The second Lever must be toggled one second right after the first, if not, then the other Lever will simply reset and blocks inbetween will disappear again. If both Levers were eventually toggled within the same second, then the door will open for a few seconds so that both players can progress forward. Once one of them made it behind the door, they can easily re-open it from the inside again.
There's one really tricky thing about this circuit one may wonder about. If you look clearly, you will notice that there are some useless spikes in the lower parts of the circuit. Their actual function is a bit tricky: They act like a kind of resistor, their purpose is to slow down the signal in order to let other components of the circuit to be signaled first. Technically, it doesn't matter what Port Defining Components are used to delay a signal transmission, as long as you add more components to one wire branch than the other branch has, you automatically ensure that the signal of this branch will always be processed after the signal of the other branch.

The careless person running over the Pressure Plate will eventually loose ground and fall into a locked room filled with deadly spikes. Lag can yield this trap useless though, it's recommend to enlarge the hole to have a higher chance of catching the prey.

Using doors to send signals can be a great way to make many kinds of different traps. Here's a simple lava trap.

This trap makes use of a cycling timer, once activated it fires four times in a 1.5 seconds interval before it deactivates.

This smart jukebox simply starts playing a random song with each sunset and sunrise.

A deluxe hellevator. Once the switch is toggled, a bunny companion is spawned and the ground vanishes, causing the player to fall down - the bunny escort the user of course, so they don't have to feel so alone on their way down to hell.

Life can be a chill with a modern Advanced Circuits powered house. No need to open doors by hand, just walking towards them is sufficient. Also, the lights and the music is automatically turned on and off accordingly with the time of day.
