I have seen this handled on the DOG WHISPERER and even IT'S ME OR THE DOG.
They need to wait a few feet back from the door when you open the door. Once they are trained to listen to the word BACK or WAIT it helps a lot at a busy door. My 6 Chi's know to stand back when I say wait. We are working with Bella now.
If you can't get that to work I would block them from having access to the door at all.
