介绍（中）	在纽约州达奇斯县新哈肯萨克的Stephen Thorn博士的房子里，这扇"荷兰"门是在纽约和新泽西荷兰文化区的革命前房屋中发现的典型外门。这种类型的分体式门是荷兰本土的，经常出现在17世纪荷兰风格的室内绘画中。事实上，上部可以独立于下部打开，这为房主提供了一个优势，即让空气和光线进入室内，同时让孩子们安全地呆在室内，让动物和害虫远离。纽约和新泽西荷兰文化区的早期房屋通常是两个房间，在陡峭的屋顶下首尾相连，没有中央大厅。为了保护隐私和保温，每个房间都有一扇外部"荷兰"门。即使在17世纪50年代哈德逊河谷采用了冈比亚屋顶的英国风格中心大厅房屋之后，荷兰后裔仍保留了这种早期的门型。这种保留某些传统形式的模式是纽约荷兰人的典型，也可以从他们对荷兰典型家具形式kast的广泛使用中看出。门上有八块镶板，最上面的一块镶板被绿色"靶心"玻璃的椭圆形灯光刺穿。门的前面是用秋葵木做的。背面由橡木制成，木板呈对角排列，采用榫槽连接。黄铜五金件和铁带铰链被认为是原装的。
介绍（英）	From the house of Dr. Stephen Thorn of New Hackensack in Dutchess County, New York, this "Dutch" door is typical of the exterior doors found in pre-Revolutionary houses from the Dutch cultural areas of New York and New Jersey. Two-part split doors of this type are indigenous to the Netherlands and appear frequently in seventeenth-century Dutch genre paintings depicting interiors. The fact that the upper section could be opened independently of the lower one afforded the homeowner the advantage of letting air and light into the interior while keeping children safely inside and animals and vermin out. Early houses in the Dutch cultural areas of New York and New Jersey were typically of two rooms arranged end to end under a steeply pitched roof, and lacked a center hall. To allow for privacy and heat retention, each of these rooms had an exterior "Dutch" door. Even after the adoption of the gambrel-roofed English style center hall house in the Hudson River valley in the 1750s, people of Dutch descent retained this earlier door type. This pattern of retaining certain traditional forms was typical of the New York Dutch and can be seen as well in their extended use of that quintessential Dutch furniture form, the kast. The door features eight fielded panels, the topmost pair pierced by oval lights of green "bull's-eye" glass. The front of the door is made of gumwood. The back is made of oak and the boards run diagonally, constructed with tongue-and-groove joints. The brass hardware and iron strap hinges are thought to be original.
