Open sound effects for anything with a lid or a latch. Doors and drawers, roller shutters, cardboard boxes, books and treasure chests. Lots of doors. Plenty of it comes with the close as well, so a cupboard can open and shut in the same scene and still sound like the same cupboard.

The libraries here cover doors and the slide of a Drawer, with paper and Cardboard for boxes and books opened at a desk. Games get their share too, with treasure chests and loot, plus inventory and click sounds for menus. Interior storm recordings sit here as well, wind and rain heard from inside through the windows, and every library is royalty-free for film and games.
