Holding the door

One of the most simple and easily contagious acts of generosity I see is holding the door for someone else.  Particularly while entering a shared office space, parking garage, hospital, or the like.  One after another the person in front holds the door for the next and it passes on like a virus.  There are as many reasons for doing it as there are people who participate so I won't pretend to  have some great insight into the human condition here but they all benefit materially, and I'd venture to bet at least one of them feels better about themselves.  How do we make this work in other situations?
