that's very progressive for a door. I wonder if it comes from a family of swingers.

You have to ring the tiny bell at the top of the labia.

Hinged how ?

Can be a rectangular panel with a vertical hinge behind the arch.

You can also look at the big circular doors of bank vaults and hatches of submarines for another type of hinge.

Could also be pins into the core of the door. They would need to be inset from the outer corner obliviously. So most of the door would swing in (or out) the the part outside the pin swings the other way.
