What goes through a door but never goes in and never comes out?

Illustration for riddle: What goes through a door but never goes in and never comes out?

Common Wrong Answers

A key

A key physically goes into a lock and comes out again, whereas a keyhole itself does not move.

Light

While light can pass through a door when it is open, it does not go through a keyhole in the sense intended by the riddle.

A shadow

A shadow can appear on either side of a door but does not pass through the keyhole itself.
