some horses, have bad experiences with doors. For example, in their past life, they could have had a either cruel or inexperienced owner that let something happen that scarred a horse's trust. this can happen a lot, with riding, certain objects, etc. To tell exactly, get in touch with anyone that has handled the horse that does not like doors and maybe ask if anything has happened that would make someone, something, scared of it happening again. This case could also be, that they are afraid of something happening. They could be spooking at the door, (scared of it) they could be the type of horse that does not like going through narrow doors (if the certain door you are talking about is narrow) or, they could be a little inexperienced and going through doors is against their instincts.

so that is why some horses are like that, and to prevent:

-Try to remember any incidents that could make him/her scared of it happening again, or ask someone that has handled the horse through doors the same. Once you know the problem, teach it that it won't happen again.

OR

-train your horse a little better for that he is used to doors.
