Some people just don't feel the need to follow certain rules. Like, using a door to enter a room. Instead, they prefer to simply burst through a wall or window in a dramatic fashion, even if it makes no sense or it would have been easier to go the conventional way. This is especially common when someone shoots through a door despite the considerable time and ammo this would take in Real Life. Use of this trope may be an indicator that the buster is really a Small Name, Big Ego and/or not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Also sometimes an action of the Leeroy Jenkins, who screws up his or her allies' plans for a stealthy entrance by doing this. Another variant is simply kicking the door open and then someone pointing out that it wasn't locked. Sometimes, a variant appears where the entire wall is destroyed except for the door, which the characters may or may not open anyway.
Also often happens in the form of a fake-out, where the audience is led to believe someone will enter through the door when the camera focuses on it, only to have them burst through the wall somewhere on either side instead.
Frequently lampshaded by someone shouting out the trope name, especially the Deadpan Snarker or the disgruntled owner of the building. Also, keep in mind the old joke about the stupid burglar: he breaks two windows, one to get in and one to get out. The gag can run loose if the person goes through a different place every time, or does it just as the hole is being repaired, much to the frustration of the owner.
Oftentimes this is committed because they forgot that We Have the Keys or they are simply Door Dumb. See also Impact Silhouette, Bullet Hole Door, Dungeon Bypass, Super Window Jump, Enter Stage Window, Car Meets House, Boarding Pod, The Exit Is That Way, and Dynamic Entry.
Compare Barrier-Busting Blow, "Open!" Says Me. If the enemy manages to burst through a massive fortification, see Breaching the Wall. When going through the wall (rather than the door) is actually the easier solution, Myopic Architecture may be in play. Not to be confused with Right Through the Wall, which is about someone being entirely too loud about their... well... bedroom business.

Watchmen: Rorschach does use doors. They're just usually locked. The sequence of events goes something like this: Rorschach breaks into his old partner Dan Dreiberg's apartment by smashing the lock. Dan has the lock replaced. Rorschach breaks the new one effortlessly. Dan has the lock replaced a second time. Then the police try to break in, and the lock holds, but the door itself smashes to pieces. But really the lock makers were asking for this. After all their company is called Gordian Locks.

Happens twice in Megamind, both at Hal's apartment.
Megamind blasts the apartment door to splinters as part of his big entrance. Hal had previously told Roxy he was going to leave the door unlocked. Immediately afterwards, as Megamind starts his big speech, Minion busies himself with carefully mounting a new door in its place.
Later, Megamind busts through the wall with the fist of his giant robot, this time out of frustration. Bonus points for the fact that there was already a hole there, thanks to Hal himself, and Megamind just enlarged it.

The Adventures of Superman:
Superman bursts through a wall to rescue Lois and Jimmy, and Jimmy comments that he "could have come in through the door."
Averted in a case where it actually would have been useful in "The Defeat of Superman": Instead of breaking down the door to the basement where Lois and Jimmy are being held, Superman unbolts it and walks inside. The villains quickly close and re-seal the door, and while a confused Superman is wondering what they think that will accomplish, they drop a hunk of kryptonite in through a hole, leaving him too weak to stand, let alone break out. Had he smashed through the door in the beginning, such a plan wouldn't have worked.

In some areas of X-Men Legends 1 and 2, the doors will be the only interior sections that you can't simply smash your way through. After a big fight, you can easily end up with a forlorn door standing uselessly in the middle of a room with 20 feet of hole on either side of it.

Wonder Woman (1942): While Diana can easily crumple even the doors of safes she does on occasion go through the wall next to the door instead. In "The Return From the Dead" she realizes the Holliday Girls are unconscious behind the steel door Steve Trevor is trying to pick the lock to and quickly steps through the wall next to the door to rescue them from the room behind it which is quickly filling with toxic gas.

In "A Woman's Work", one of the stories in If I Were an Evil Overlord (a collection of short stories inspired by the Evil Overlord List) the royal family is barricaded behind a magical door. The invading empress orders her men to tear down the wall instead. Apparently no one ever puts anti-entry spells on the walls.

Digimon:
Piedmon from Digimon Adventure tears through several walls when hunting down the Digidestined through his palace. Likely at least some of them is likely because it's a quicker path. But in the end, when chasing TK and Kari, the only two he hasn't captured, he comes across the door to the outside were they'd be trapped. Instead of opening the door, he decides to blow it up to make a dramatic entrance. Large Ham that he is, he lampshades this:
Also used in Digimon Adventure 02, when Greymon and Angemon fight a trio of digimon at Versailles Palace in France, who smash through a window to take the fight outside, causing TK's grandpa to cry "Hey, use the door next time!"

Ranma ½:
Shampoo tends to burst through walls in her appearances. When asked why she doesn't use the door, she replies "Door take too long!" From observation, it appears that whenever she's chasing someone (usually Ranma), she focuses on the chase to the exclusion of the building's floorplan. If there happens to be a door in her way, she'll open it, but she won't take an alternate route just because there's a wall in her way. On at least one occasion, she is seen to exit the room by smashing a new hole in the wall, right next to the one she made coming in. When given a hypnotic suggestion to "go home peacefully" she still smashes through a wall as she leaves. It may be a case of Does Not Know Her Own Strength — walls are like crackers to her, so it's hard for her to think of them as "structures" so much as "obstacles".
Ry�ga Hibiki is just as often guilty of this as well, but considering that this is Ry�ga he can be excused because he couldn't find the door.
Ryū Kumon, from the late manga, also walks through walls (he's just that strong) in order to intimidate people. Worse, he breaks through an entire wing of walls at Fūrinkan High School, from the ground floor and up to the third floor, completely ignoring the stairs and the doors. Ranma's classmates even feel the tremors and think it is an earthquake.
From the first movie, after Kun� thrusts his way into the living room with his wooden sword:
Pantyhose TarÅ� also bursts through walls a lot in monster form — but then again, he doesn't fit the door.

Sheep in the Big City had an episode where Big Bad General Specific is given superpowers by the Angry Scientist, and keeps leaving and entering the Secret Military Base through the ceiling, creating a new Impact Silhouette every time...except when he returns for the last time, and just walks through the door, even though this time the camera anticipated him smashing through the ceiling and has to pan down.

X-Men:
In one of the X-Babies appearances (perhaps Excalibur: Mojo Mayhem), there's a sequence where — of course — the door is not used.
Note that the above remark is from someone whose power allows her to walk through walls. On that note, while Kitty does phase through walls, she at least has the courtesy to phase through the door.
From Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men run, Danger has teamed up with Sufficiently Advanced Alien Ord of the Breakworld to invade the X-Mansion (again). The superstrong and mildly berserk Ord is bashing through everything in his path, ripping doors off their hinges and generally making a mess.
In an issue, the X-Men are imprisoned in Murderworld. Cyclops faces three doors, and Arcade tells him one of them leads to life, the two others lead to death. Cyclops takes a fourth option and just blasts through the side wall, which turns out to be the right move because all three doors were trapped. (There's a reason Arcade calls his personal amusement park "Murderworld"...)
Heck, the X-Men were doing this as far back as the fifth issue. Professor Xavier has been depowered, so the X-Men have to break him into his own house to get him some rest. Cyclops blasts the front door despite the fact that the key was right there.
The Juggernaut is fond of this means of travel. What good are doors for a person larger than the door frame?

In Jagged Alliance, this is one of the recommended ways to deal with buildings where the enemy is lurking inside. You could go through the doors, wasting AP and leaving your pointman vulnerable to enemy fire, or you could have your demolitions guy plant a couple of blocks of C4 on the wall, blast open a hole, and then storm in through the back, or even just open a hole to let your snipers with their armor-piercing anti-tank rifles start picking off the enemy.

"The Super-Steed of Steel": Subverted. When an alien spaceship strikes Earth, Supergirl's X-Ray Vision cannot pierce through its hull, so she decides to ram herself through a wall into the ship. It turns out that the aliens were ready for that tactic, and fire at Supergirl with Kryptonite-powered ray guns when she bursts through the wall.

Angel:
Frequently in the first season, instead of merely opening a door, Angel would kick it open dramatically (often breaking it). The recapper on Television Without Pity speculated that Angel just really hated doors. Sometimes doesn't quite work the way a normal person would use it. Being a vampire, he can't enter a home where he hasn't been invited. That's why he brings a human partner, who can enter an apartment uninvited.
In one early episode, he bursts through a window... and later gets a bill for it.
In another episode, Wesley and Gunn break into a house to steal a MacGuffin. Wesley makes a big deal of cutting a perfect hole in a window. Gunn simply opens the unlocked door.

In the Helix episode "Vector", a lab rat infected with The Virus breaks through the glass walls of its own cage and that of a neighboring uninfected rat in order to attack in and spread the virus, even though its Super-Strength could've dislodged its cage's lid quite easily.

The Belgariad/The Malloreon
Sorcerers tend to disregard niceties such as doors when irritated or in a hurry, frequently using their powers to blast through doors, walls, or in Garion's case in the second series, entire buildings, making this a crossover with Dungeon Bypass. Which is promptly lampshaded by Deadpan Snarker Liselle:
Garion makes a point of threatening the pre-Heel–Face Turn Zakath with a broken city when he finally decides he's been delayed long enough... and smashes through a few walls while going to make this threat.
Played straight and then inverted (and almost literally invoked) when Garion smashes down Senji's locked door, and then Belgarath makes him fix it, which Garion does by pointing at the shattered doorframe and creating a new door via sorcery by saying "Door." Belgarath is not amused by his choice of Word.

In Rainbow Six Siege, most walls and floors are breakable and since waltzing through the front door would be tantamount to suicide, blowing down someone's wall and waltzing through it is the next best thing. Of course, there's also the chance that someone would blow a hole right beside an actual doorway.

The Intercontinental Union of Disgusting Characters has a story where Peter Perfect tries to break out of jail, but can't break through the adamantium cell door — so he uses his sword's telekinesis to punch through two stories up to him and then proceeds to saw a hole through the floor to let himself out. Later on, other disgusting characters note that they should build their structures with adamantium-laced mortar, or else any two-bit disgusting character can punch their way out.

The Simpsons:
Referencing One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, there's a scene in "The Old Man And The C-Student", where an elderly Native American man dramatically throws a water fountain through the window and jumps out, prompting the Old Jewish man to yell after him. Later in the scene, the man throws the fountain back through another window and jumps up again because he forgot his hat.
Barney actually pulled off the parody in "So, It's Come To This: A Simpsons Clip Show" — after Homer refused beer after being hospitalized from an exploding Duff can, Barney (unsuccessfully) smothers him with a pillow and does the fountain-through-the-window gag.
In "Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo", when the family travels to Japan, Homer does this repeatedly by walking through shoji doors, apparently not getting the concept that they slide, insisting "I don't have time for that!". He even does this when he and Bart go to prison! (But only after the bail is paid, and the door is actually opened.)
Subverted for laughs in "The Springfield Connection", where Marge becomes a cop. One obstacle was a brick wall that she thought she had to climb. Chief Wiggum remarks "Huh, women. Always having trouble with the wall. They can't seem to use the door." The shot then goes to the rest of the recruits (all male) walking nonchalantly through a door.
In "Who Shot Mr. Burns? Part 1", a furious Homer rams his car against the power plant's parking gate, smashing it. The apathetic security guard nonchalantly looks up and opens the remains of the gate.

Clarissa Explains It All: Sam always enters the Darling household through Clarissa's upstairs bedroom window via a ladder. Even on the rare occasions he comes through the first floor, generally after finding that Clarissa isn't in her room, he comes in through the window beside the door. There's a specific reason why he chooses to go to Clarissa's window: he hates her younger brother Ferguson so much he uses the ladder to avoid him. Lampshaded in one episode where, after Sam leaves, Clarissa's father asks "Why doesn't that kid ever use the door?"

In Superjail!, Jailbot only appears by crashing through walls, ceilings and even doors themselves. He'll inevitably destroy anything and everyone in his way, flying in a straight line with a wicked grin on his LED face.

Like the Powerpuff Girls, Underdog almost always smashes through a wall or ceiling when entering or leaving a building. One episode sees Underdog smash through a ship this way, leaving it to take on water. After giving his Hero Insurance catchphrase ("I'm a hero who never fails; I can't be bothered with such details."), the ship's crew calls him on such and insist he fix the hole, which Underdog does.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
In an episode, the now-addleminded Baxter walks through the wall five feet to the left of the door to April's office. April manages to trick him into leaving. When he realizes this and comes back, he walks past the hole he made earlier, past the door, and breaks through the wall on the other side. This is made funnier by the fact that the door was open at the time. Later in the episode, the Turtles run past both the first hole and the open door to go through the second hole.
He does this in a later appearance as well, breaking into a lab and leaving a Baxter-shaped hole in the wall to the left of an open door, which tips Raphael off as to who the culprit is.

Wreck-It Ralph:
Ralph crashes through a wall himself on the kart he and Vanellope baked together. Justified as the door is blocked by the cops, and they need a speedy exit. A few feet in either direction, however, would have yielded Destination Defenestration instead.
Earlier in the movie, Ralph shatters the cupcake he's stuck in by jumping out of Sugar Rush's castle. There are two large double-door-style windows on either side and he instead plunges straight through the sugarcube/brick wall.
And later, he bursts through the walls of the Fungeon cells where both Felix and Vanellope are detained. Sure, the door was certainly locked in both cases; not that it make any difference...

Justice League:
"Injustice for All" ruins a Big Damn Heroes moment when five of the heroes bust into the villains' lair. Hawkgirl breaks down the door, Superman breaks the wall next to the door, and Green Lantern goes through the window next to the hole Superman made.
In "Fearful Symmetry", Green Arrow arranges for a security guard at STAR Labs to win a holiday, borrowing his keycard and posing as a replacement. Shortly afterwards, the Question ambles up to the same door, studies the keycard lock, casually fetches a potted plant and throws it through the glass door.

This is more Robin's schtick in Teen Titans Go!, as he regularly leaves (and enters) Titan Tower through the windows rather than take the elevator down to the front door. Many examples are caused by him being a drama queen. The rest are likely him following in Batman's footsteps (as mentioned in the Comics section above).

Fullmetal Alchemist:
The Crimson Alchemist prefers blowing walls up as opposed to opening doors.
Ed and his teacher Izumi might count as an inversion; on several occasions they transmute doors on walls that didn't already have them, so they can enter through said doors rather than smashing the wall.
Sloth plays it straight during his grand entrance in the final arc.

Johan and Peewit: In an album, the King locked himself in his private cellar to escape the treacherous aide of a baron who was after his crown. The traitor ordered his goons to break down the door. The King just laughed it off saying the oaken door is heavy and reinforced with iron. Soon after, the goons broke their tools and the door didn't had any dent. After many hours of trying and failing, the goons just tore down the stone wall next to the door.

Les Voyageurs Sans Souci: When Sébastien arrives at his aunt Ursule's house, he decides to look through the living room windows before knocking on the door. When leaning against the large window panes, though, he accidentally pushes it open, so he decides to jump inside...to his aunt's annoyance, who protests her family uses doors like civilised people.

In Star Wars: Annihilation, Theron Shan's superior criticizes his methods as overly stylish: "He prefers to go through the window instead of a perfectly good door." A few chapters later, Theron proves the point by opting to break into Jedi Grand Master Satele's apartment even though he's coming there at her invitation, partly because he doesn't want people making any connection between them, but partly just to prove that he can.

DC Animated Universe:
Lampshaded by the Joker in Batman: The Animated Series when Batman and Robin crash through a glass ceiling to face him.
Superman: The Animated Series:
Bizarro isn't the smartest tool in the shed. He smashes through a wall to yoink Lois Lane.
The evil Kryptonians Jax-Ur and Mala just fly through any building they meet in a straight line. This is used to emphasize how they don't care about humans at all. In the same fight, Superman flies around the buildings.
Justice League:
"Injustice for All" ruins a Big Damn Heroes moment when five of the heroes bust into the villains' lair. Hawkgirl breaks down the door, Superman breaks the wall next to the door, and Green Lantern goes through the window next to the hole Superman made.
In "Fearful Symmetry", Green Arrow arranges for a security guard at STAR Labs to win a holiday, borrowing his keycard and posing as a replacement. Shortly afterwards, the Question ambles up to the same door, studies the keycard lock, casually fetches a potted plant and throws it through the glass door.

King Of The Rocket Men (and some others thanks to Stock Footage recycling). The Jet Pack-wearing hero has to rescue a Damsel in Distress who is in a light aircraft that's plunging towards the ground, so he just smashes through the side of the aircraft as he doesn't have time to open the door. Presumably the bullet-shaped full-face helmet he's wearing made a good battering ram.

Scrubs:
One episode has an obnoxiously intelligent patient lock the door on Dr. Kelso. He enters the room anyway by stealing Janitor's electric screwdriver and removing the hinges and kicking the door down. He does this again on the same patient, despite the door being unlocked, because he likes the dramatic entrance (watch the scene).
Laverne once punched through the window of Turk's car before Carla could tell her We Have the Keys.
In season five episode eight ("My Big Bird") J.D. gets kicked through the window of a former patient's window. Turk later comes crashing through as well, with the patient yelling that "There is a door!"

Renegade:
"Spectre" Garrus Vakarian demonstrates his disdain for the traditional methods of entry by repeatedly knocking down walls with a cargo hauler to surprise groups of mercenaries. In his own words:
This backfires a bit when He revisits the first warehouse (going through another wall of course) and finds the guy he needs to talk to has gone through the first hole and stole a car. Garrus's response to this? Borrow a tank from C-Sec.
Later on, the Scrin Battlemind routinely slams through walls so much that Garrus gets annoyed that it's stealing his moves.

Frequently in the first season, instead of merely opening a door, Angel would kick it open dramatically (often breaking it). The recapper on Television Without Pity speculated that Angel just really hated doors. Sometimes doesn't quite work the way a normal person would use it. Being a vampire, he can't enter a home where he hasn't been invited. That's why he brings a human partner, who can enter an apartment uninvited.

Garfield:
In one strip, Jon calls Garfield to dinner. Garfield comes bounding up to Jon from off panel. Jon says, "I appreciate your promptness, Garfield...." and finishes in the last panel, "... BUT NEXT TIME, OPEN THE DOOR!", revealing that Garfield broke through the (closed) door. Could be justified in that Garfield is a cat and can't work a doorknob (at least at that point in the strip's history; he's seen opening doors plenty of times later on), but....
There's also one where he comes through the pet door, but gets stuck inside because he's too fat and thus rips the normal door from its hinges anyway. Also, he repeatedly kicked Nermal out the front door without opening it first.
And there's another wherein Garfield knocks on the front door for Jon to let him in. Unfortunately, Jon doesn't make it in time before Garfield smashes the door open while saying "When I want in, I want in now."
Happens in another strip when Jon yells "FIRE!" to test his pets' fire drill knowledge. Both run straight through the wall — or, rather, we assume they did, thanks to the hole.
Tired of the mess Garfield and Odie are making, Jon opens the door and tells them to go outside. They jump through the window. Berating his pets, Jon tells them to use the door next time. Of course, they do so — breaking through the closed door while reentering. Jon sarcastically thanks them.

Discworld:
In Thief of Time, Myria Le Jean is talking to some fellow Auditors. When they want to go through a door, one glances at it, and the door disintegrates. Ms. Le Jean observes this and says "Doorknob was simpler."
In Interesting Times, the Silver Horde quickly realise that, if all the interior walls in the Emperor's Palace are made of paper, you can just learn the general direction of the throne room and walk there in a straight line. Because Agateans are so conditioned to believe you don't do that, Gossip Evolution gives them the ability to walk through any walls, as befits vampire ghosts.

Mortadelo y Filemón:
Played with. The two protagonists find themselves in a cell with a steel door. Filemón starts making a hole in the wall, all the while brushing off Mortadelo who's trying to tell him something. When, after considerable time, he finally breaks through the wall, he finds Mortadelo there waiting for him — it turns out that the bad guys forgot to lock the door...
In another case, a number of prisoners are discovered to have escaped through an equal number of Man-Shaped Holes, from the same cell. Lampshaded when Filemón comments on how stupid one would have to be to not just use the same hole for everybody... only to find out that the thought hadn't occurred to either his partner or his boss, either.
Yet another case was an inversion of the standard scheme: Filemón attempts to pick the lock on a door but eventually has to give up, only to find that in the meantime, Mortadelo has made a very artistic new door by "having some fun with [his] penknife".

A Forever Knight episode had a perp do a window jump once after Nick vamped out at him... but Nick used his vampire speed to grab him before he fell. He, unlike Angel in the earlier example, does *not* have that pesky uninvited vampire problem.

In the opening of one episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine Jake elaborately plans smashing through a window to catch a perp, despite there being a single door to the apartment he was using as a hideout. He thinks he's incredibly cool, but his superiors are frustrated because they have to fill out extra paperwork.

Iorek Byrnison in The Golden Compass does this after getting back his armor, though in this case it's probably symbolic of him no longer being subservient to humanity (or its etiquette) since he is a giant Ice Bear. Or he opted not to use the door because he knew there'd be guards pointing rifles at it.

Top Secret!:
Done in a way where during a gun fight, one of the defenders breaks a small window in a 5x4 window frame. The next defender breaks a new window and so forth. In the end a very small man shows up and he jumps in front of the window while under heavy fire for about 15 seconds before he manages to break and fire out of the last window, which was on the top row.
Then done again with a 3x3 window, only this time with only two defenders who smash "X" and "O" shaped holes in the windows, when one of the defenders manages to get three "O"-es in a row, the window gets blasted out.
Then again with the black defender "Chocolate Mousse" who grabs a cannon, lights the fuse and rams the muzzle through the window to shoot.

Hilariously inverted in Max Payne, where at one scene you overhear two mafia mooks arguing over how to disarm a bomb planted by the Russians. During their argument, they accidentally set off the bombnote No, not the gree-*BOOM*, killing themselves and severely damaging the wall surrounding the door. The door is untouched, and when Max tries it, the whole wall comes down but leaves the part with the door still standing, with the door still locked.

The Order of the Stick:
Occurs several times, once with Elan, the resident Cloudcuckoolander, bursting through the window with the "the door was open" gag added in. His Dashing Swordsman Prestige Class prevents damage from glass.
It occurs three times in the same scene, with the third one being much more unexpected and lampshaded.
In the prequel Start of Darkness, Xykon, after being transformed into a lich, kicks off his Look What I Can Do Now! sequence by surprising Lirian this way.
In one case, a monster chooses to smash through a wall framing an open door. Given that it's a flesh golem, and formerly Crystal, it's possible that it's just that stupid. Later, she bursts right through the wall of Bozzok and Grubwiggler's abode, intent on revenge.

When the first trailer of Wolverine and the X-Men (2009) came out, fans quickly began to joke about Wolverine's obvious problem with opening doors normally, since the trailer contains at least three scenes of him kicking a door in, with a few more by MRD soldiers. While the first episode does then indeed contain several scenes of Wolverine kicking doors, the second one actually shows him opening a door in Magneto's Citadel. However the same episode also contains a scene of Cyclops blasting dozens of doors open, apparently too lazy to open them by hand. During the rest of show, there seems to be a competition between Wolverine and Cyclops on how many doors to crush in or how many new entrances they can create.

Resident Evil
After solving the carriage wheel puzzle in Resident Evil 2's second scenario, Mr. X comes crashing through the wall. Then when you're back in the hallway, he smashes back through the same wall.
Justified in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis if you choose to run inside the police station instead of battling your titular new best friend. Although he could easily get through that door he just pounds on it for a bit and then leaves, only to come crashing through a window later: He left to get his rocket launcher.
If there is both a door and window into a building in Resident Evil 4, you can always dive through the window instead of taking the door. However, this isn't usually a good idea, since an intact window will slow down Ganados for a second and give you an advantage.

In XCOM: Chimera Squad, the combat is distilled into "breach a room, achieve an objective, rinse & repeat". The main door is usually not the best entrance; you often get the option to go through walls, windows, vents, secured doors, etc. for various advantages. Even the tutorial mission has you breaching through a wall.

In Fortnite, since Everything Breaks, it's trivial to break down a wall to get into any building you like. However, it's also a Stealth-Based Game, and breaking down walls is noisy, so it's best to know where the doors are — if there's a door nearby that you don't know about, and an opponent behind that door, they can slip out (opening doors is also noisy, but much less so!) and blast you in the back of the head before you even figure out what's happening.

This is always an option in Zombies Ate My Neighbors so long as you have a Bazooka to spare. Don't have a key or don't feel like wasting one, or just want a shortcut? Just blow a hole in the wall or fence.

Superman: The Animated Series:
Bizarro isn't the smartest tool in the shed. He smashes through a wall to yoink Lois Lane.
The evil Kryptonians Jax-Ur and Mala just fly through any building they meet in a straight line. This is used to emphasize how they don't care about humans at all. In the same fight, Superman flies around the buildings.

Captain America: Civil War gives us an interesting Lampshade Hanging. The Vision, being able to phase through solid matter, enters Wanda's room through the wall. When Wanda objects, he says that he thought it was okay to come in because the door was open. Cap and Wanda quickly point out that the door being open isn't enough, you have to use it. He promptly exits through the door.

Piedmon from Digimon Adventure tears through several walls when hunting down the Digidestined through his palace. Likely at least some of them is likely because it's a quicker path. But in the end, when chasing TK and Kari, the only two he hasn't captured, he comes across the door to the outside were they'd be trapped. Instead of opening the door, he decides to blow it up to make a dramatic entrance. Large Ham that he is, he lampshades this:

Schlock Mercenary:
The title character tries to burn through a bulkhead with his Plasma Cannon. It doesn't quite work and he ends up very briefly getting stuck halfway through. Fortunately the enemy is more incompetent than he is.
Then Captain Tagon ends up blowing a massive hole in the space station so he can take his entire ship inside!

In Cave Story, Balrog is first introduced doing this. Amusingly, he did enter exactly where the door was, but since he's way too wide to use it, he just busts through the door and the door-sized bits of wall on either side of it. That scene is probably why his catchphrase of "Huzzah!" was changed to a Kool-Aid-Man-style "OH YEAH!" in the re-translation of the console and handheld versions. Later in the game, he tends to make his entrances by crashing through ceilings.

If there is both a door and window into a building in Resident Evil 4, you can always dive through the window instead of taking the door. However, this isn't usually a good idea, since an intact window will slow down Ganados for a second and give you an advantage.

The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes:
Tony Stark moans about this one more than one occasion, like when Thor bursts through the floor rather than coming up the stairs, or the Hulk kicks a hole in the door (even though they open automatically). Understandable, given that it's usually Tony's private property that's getting smashed up.
Hank Pym makes a similar complaint when Ulysses Klaw and his henchmen smash down the door of his lab. "You know, that door didn't have a lock on it. You could've just opened it."

Seconds later, a car comes blazing into the living room and totals the front entrance of their house.

The villains in Superman II do this a lot, especially when they take over the Daily Planet office, with Lex Luthor delivering the line. This is a Call-Back to the first movie when Superman tracks Luthor down to his hidden lair, and dramatically smashes through the wall rather than use the door, causing Lex to quip "It's open! Come in!". In the second movie, then, he's muttering to himself that not knowing how doors work seems to be a problem for Kryptonians in general.

A commercial for The Powerpuff Girls (1998) showed them smashing through the ceiling, only for the hole to be patched with wood, then bricks only to get destroyed each time. The last shot finally shows the hole turned into an opening with an "Exit" sign...only for the girls to break through the wall.

Can arise in Earthdawn due to the Questor for Garlan "Seal Home" power. Garlan grants her questors the power to seal a certain number of windows and doors and keep out any intruders using her magic. Given that, an enemy going up against a sufficiently powerful Questor for Garlan can be better off trying to break through "those flimsy stone walls" rather than a door that has Garlan's power keeping it closed.

The title character of The Legend of Korra does this for her Establishing Character Moment. When she was four years old. Shouting "I'M THE AVATAR, YOU GOTTA DEAL WITH IT!"
Season 3 of Korra has the breakout of the Red Lotus. Despite there being a perfectly functional elevator down to P'Li's prison, Ming-Hua opts instead to tunnel into said prison and climb all the way back up with P'Li in tow.

Red Faction
Red Faction: Guerrilla provides the player with a sledgehammer of unlikely power. You have the option of bashing your way through walls and windows rather than use the door. This can be a lifesaver when rescuing hostages, running from a horde of drones, and so forth.
In the original: "Don't have a key? Create your own door." Generally only works where the plot requires it.
Yet why exactly walls can get shredded by grenades and yet doors remain unscratched in the face of multiple rockets remains a complete mystery.

In one chapter, Jade is at a shrine, going after a Shadowkhan tablet version of a Tome of Eldritch Lore, and is attacked and thrown through the wall repeatedly by the monk guarding the tablet, and when she says she is tired of it, he throws her through the roof instead. After that, though he doesn't say anything, she just bursts through the wall.
In the second Interlude's Big-Lipped Alligator Moment Dream Sequence, Jade bursts through the door of Shendu's palace, smashing it, and he says "I have a door gong."

Smallville:
Clark does this on occasion, but you are not an evil kryptonian if you break down every door you see.
"Kara": Kara pulls an elevator's doors apart. An annoyed Clark says if she had just waited a few seconds, they would have opened. Kara retorts that this "inferior Earth technology" is too slow.
"Absolute Justice, Part 1": Hawkman smashes through the windows of the Watchtower to dump Oliver in front of Chloe.
And in the Grand Finale, Clark crashes through the top of the Fortress and flies into the sky as he changes into Superman. Who cares, it is awesome.

When Ikzauki senses a disturbance around Jade (namely the chi surge preceding her accidental creation of the Leech Khan), he's in such a hurry to reach her that he doesn't bother opening any of the doors in his way, just bursting through them all.

Hellsister Trilogy: At the climax of "The Apokolips Agenda", Superman and other heroes forgo any semblance of subtlety and restraint and tear their way through the roof and walls surrouding Darkseid's chamber. Justified because they were almost out of time to save the universe.

In Interesting Times, the Silver Horde quickly realise that, if all the interior walls in the Emperor's Palace are made of paper, you can just learn the general direction of the throne room and walk there in a straight line. Because Agateans are so conditioned to believe you don't do that, Gossip Evolution gives them the ability to walk through any walls, as befits vampire ghosts.

On The A-Team, there was a first season episode where Hannibal, BA and Murdock were trying to get arrested so they could look into a prison fight ring. They tried pretending to be drunk, but the police let them go. To make sure they got arrested, they drove a car through the front wall of the police station. The clip made it to the opening credits.

In S.W.A.T. (2003), the team uses a huge grappling hook attached to a truck to smash through a house's outer wall and pull out a large chunk. This allows the team to get the drop on the crazy armed man inside. Somehow, the crazy man failed to notice the big truck engine roaring outside, the noise of the winch, etc. (The original TV series was also noted for such lapses in story logic.) In this case, it is marginally excusable, however, as in addition to his schizophrenia, the guy is as drunk as a lord.

The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.: During a fire drill, a shutter blocks off the nearest exit because it passes by the room that's "on fire". Hairo concludes that the obstacle was placed there to test their teamwork, so instead of turning around and walking out the front door, everybody spends 30 minutes tearing down the shutter to get outside. The P.E. coach chews them all out for being complete morons and because he had just installed that shutter last week.

Secret Squirrel:
Secret Squirrel (at least in the original series) would always dismay his boss by never leaving through the door.
In Super Secret Secret Squirrel, it's his method of entrance. Usually non-destructive, though. Morocco Mole's attempt at the same — well, that varies.
Subverted in one episode where Secret actually enter the office through the front door. The same episode that showed the only time the chief was worried where Secret would pop up from today.

Phineas and Ferb:
Perry the Platypus breaks down the door to Dr. Doofenshmirtz's apartment a few too many times. Given the openness of their relationship, Doc doesn't even bother locking it. He even gave Perry his key. So whenever Perry bursts through the wall/door/ceiling/etc., Doofenshmirtz is justifiably annoyed.
At least once, Perry bursts in and Doofenshmirtz declares, "Perry the Platypus! You will PAY!" Perry takes out his wallet and pays for the broken door, and even gives extra when Doofenshmirtz asks if he thinks that door was plywood, not oak. "That's right, fork it over."
Taken to a ridiculous extreme when Doofenshmirtz builds a trap consisting of a door with a Perry-shaped hole in it, claiming to have been inspired by Perry breaking through the door... and the wall... and the ceiling... and the fridge door (apparently Perry was extremely hungry on that occasion).
In "Chez Platypus", Doofenshmirtz reinforces the lock on his door, but not the door itself, so when Perry goes to kick it down, he gets his foot stuck in the hole he made.
In "S'winter", Doofenshmirtz prepared a trap at the front door, but Perry evaded it because the maid forgot to lock the back door.
In "Tri-Stone Area", set in 27,000 B.C.E., Doofenshmirtz's ancestor only grunts and laughs, but when a platypus-like animal breaks through a hole in his cave, he makes primitive noises while pointing to the giant cave entrance, which is about two feet from where Perry broke in.
And when Perry knocked and Vanessa opened, she said Perry would have broken down the door anyway. And sure enough, Perry walks in with a bazooka over his shoulder, probably about to blow up the door anyway. Then the bazooka fires while setting it down, blowing up the wall like some of his other entries do. Doofenshmirtz is understandably upset.
In "The Mom Attractor", Perry must use a giant ape to break in and out leaving Doofenshmirtz even more annoyed than usual.
Norm the Giant Robot Man sometimes enters and exits by crashing through the walls. Doofenshmirtz claims he learned the habit from Perry.

Teen Titans (2003):
Virtually no-one can be bothered to use doors. They just break through windows, walls, and even the doors themselves! It's made even funnier by the fact that most of the doors open automatically.
This is more Robin's schtick in Teen Titans Go!, as he regularly leaves (and enters) Titan Tower through the windows rather than take the elevator down to the front door. Many examples are caused by him being a drama queen. The rest are likely him following in Batman's footsteps (as mentioned in the Comics section above).

The Chosen: Justified when the paralyzed man's friends tear a hole in Zebedee's ceiling, as the entrances to the building are crowded with people blocking the way to the person they knew could heal their friend. Not that Zebedee was particularly thrilled about the hole in his roof.

Uttered word for word in The Fourth Power, from the Kadingir series. The heroes find a village lost in the jungle and immediatelly assume the natives will eat them, so they attack on sight. The villagers's answer is to stun them and leave them in a hut to cool down a bit, but the head explorer and Shell-Shocked Veteran Sura just starts panicking and convinces the others that they must kill or be killed before bursting through the bamboo wall into freedom.

Super Mario RPG:
Lampshaded by Toad when Mario enters his house through the pipe that serves as a chimney. Justified in that Mario was thrown about 1,000 feet into the air and landed in his fireplace.
In another (also not voluntary) instance later in the game, Ma Mole remarks that she thinks Mario and her kids are about to drop in, while Pa Mole says they have to use the door like everyone else. Cue Mario and kids dropping through the roof on a mine cart.
Still later, Mario and his allies have to break down two doors in the Marrymore chapel to crash Booster's wedding ceremony.

This happened at the end of the KYTV episode that spoofed the opening of the Channel Tunnel. A Running Gag through the episode was a reporter standing next to the tunnel, waiting for the first train to arrive. Which it eventually did, bursting out of the wall ten feet to the left of the tunnel.

Superman:
Superman is super strong, super fast, can fly, is invincible, has X-ray vision, heat vision, can time travel, can't work a doorknob. Supergirl is a headstrong, impatient teenager with his same powers. So who cares if there was a door? They are trying to save people and that wall/ceiling was in the way!
Superman does it so often, in fact, that Jimmy Olsen once caught him with the "bucket over the door" gag by putting the bucket over a random spot in the wall, which Supes of course broke right through.
Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?: Superman flies through the wall◊ of the base of Toyman and Prankster. Since they had just murdered one of his oldest friends you cannot blame him for wanting to find them as soon as possible.
Krypton No More: It happens the whole time. Villain Protector breaks into the Fortress of Solitude by blasting a wall (and an armored door). Later Superman bursts in Protector's partner Radion's base by flying through the floor. And in the first panel of the third issue, Superman bursts in mob boss Simeon's lair by demolishing a wall.
Superman vs. the Amazing Spider-Man: When Spider-Man and Superman break into Lex Luthor and Doctor Octopus' lair, Spidey sneaks in the place, but Supes directly bursts through the main door.
War World: Superman bursts through thousands of walls and ceilings when he hurriedly flies inside the eponymous weapon satellite.
Several examples in Kryptonite Nevermore:
In issue #240, a mother and two kids are trapped on the top floor of a burning skyscraper. Superman leaps upwards, falls on the building's roof, breaking it, and lands inside the top floor.
In issue #241 Superman bursts through the wall of the Edge's apartment. This time he had not a good cause.
Doomsday won't go anywhere, unless there's something in his way to smash to pieces. Granted he's basically violence incarnate, so he may just smash stuff because he likes to.
Parodied by Kyle Baker in his Plastic Man's run. Superman is nearly kept from his face-off with (then-president) Lex Luthor because the recent crisis had him rethinking his disregard for public property, and the little old lady receptionist guarding the door wouldn't let him in. Later, it's exaggerated by Superman's imperfect duplicate Bizarro, who refuses to use, not just the door, but the hole he left in the wall the first time.
In the first issue of Supergirl (1972), Supergirl is trying to prevent a murder and she is running out of time, so she flies through a wall to save the would-be victim.
In the first issue of Supergirl (1982), Kara flies in a factory through a smokestack and bursting through a furnace's hatch.
In the 2010 story arc Day of the Dollmaker, Supergirl flew through the wall of the lair of Dollmaker to rescue Cat Grant.
In Last Daughter of Krypton, Simon Tycho is looking for Supergirl as she's tearing his base and his troops down. Right when he is demanding that someone shows him where she is, the ground in front of him explodes and Supergirl flies in through the gap.
In Elseworld's Finest: Supergirl & Batgirl Supergirl breaks through several ceilings when she goes after Luthor.
Demon Spawn: Supergirl bursts through the walls of a burning building to find people, move them to a safe place, and put the fire out.
The Supergirl from Krypton (2004): In the second chapter, Kara bursts through a reinforced door as she runs away from Krypto.
In Bizarrogirl, Supergirl bursts into Bizarrogirl's lair through the ceiling, disregarding the huge hole nearby.
In Who is Superwoman?: Supergirl violently smashes through several walls to save Inspector Henderson from Superwoman. Thanks to her hyper-destructive approach, she arrives just in the nick of time.
Superman: Brainiac: At the climax, first Supergirl breaks through the hull of Brainiac's ship to chase after a missile aimed at the Sun. Then Superman smashes Brainiac through his ship's hull and out into the sky.
Early on, Kon-El had a bad habit of entering and exiting buildings through walls, though he only really did so during fights when he was in a hurry.
In the Wonder Woman Judgment In Infinity story arc, Power Girl bursts into the hotel's lobby where Pestilence is causing mayhem by smashing through a skylight.
The Killers of Krypton:
When Krypto comes to Supergirl's help, he bursts through a bar's ceiling, alarming all patrons.
Kara smashes her way through a starship's hull to capture Harry Hokum.
Strangers at the Heart's Core: When super-villain Shyla Kor-Onn wants to break into the Fortress of Solitude, she literally breaks through the door, even though the key is lying next to the entrance.
Superman vs. Shazam!:
When Supergirl finds the pyramid where Black Adam is crawling, she smashes her way through several dozens of meters of rock until bursting into the pharaoh's chamber.
Later, Supergirl and Mary Marvel burst into Karmang's castle through a wall.
Starfire's Revenge: As running away from Supergirl, Starfire slams a thick oaken door into Kara's face. Instead of wasting time opening it, Kara opts for punching the door off its hinges.
In Reign of Doomsday, Superman bursts through the hull of the spaceship where the Superman Family is imprisoned.
The Girl with the X-Ray Mind: When Lex Luthor is given powers, he does not bother opening his cell's door. Instead, he smashes his way through the wall. Shortly later, he decides to loot the Superman Museum, and he literally bursts into through a wall. When he leaves, he breaks another wall instead of using the hole he has just done.
The Strange Revenge of Lena Luthor: After figuring out the secret of the labyrinth of death traps where she has been dumped into, Supergirl uses her X-Ray Vision to locate her kidnappers and crashes her way through several walls as making a beeline for their room.
In Death & the Family, Silver Banshee shouts a hole through the wall of Inspector Henderson's office to attack the man by keeping her clan's relic.
The Phantom Zone: When Superman's X-Ray Vision tells him Charlie is assembling a Phantom Zone Projector, he smashes himself through his friend's apartment wall to stop him.
The Day the Cheering Stopped: Superman does not waste time when his X-Ray Vision locates Jimmy Olsen tied up and gagged inside a private yatch. Instead of looking for an entryway, he smashes his way through the ship's hull.
The Plague of the Antibiotic Man: When Superman and his cousin spot Amalak's spaceship, the Man of Steel is definitely in a bad mood -what with an incurable plague spreading, Lois falling sick, and him being fooled into believing he killed someone-, so he enters the ship deck by furiously plowing through the hull.
The Death of Luthor: When Supergirl is attacked by a hostile warship as leaving an alien world, she crashes herself through the hull to swiftly tear apart the robots manning the ship.
The Earthwar Saga: Superboy crashes through the hull of a pirate spaceship to rescue his teammate Chameleon Boy.
The Dominator War: When Supergirl's X-Ray Vision finds the Wanderers' secret hideout, the Legion of Super-Heroes crash through one wall and into the place.
Brainiac's Blitz: When Brainiac's ship has used up too much energy to keep its fore-field up, Supergirl smashes herself through the hull to attack Brainiac.
"The Super-Steed of Steel": Subverted. When an alien spaceship strikes Earth, Supergirl's X-Ray Vision cannot pierce through its hull, so she decides to ram herself through a wall into the ship. It turns out that the aliens were ready for that tactic, and fire at Supergirl with Kryptonite-powered ray guns when she bursts through the wall.
Supergirl (Wednesday Comics) starts with Streaky crashing through one window, Krypto smashing his way through the same window, and Kara demolishing the last remnants of window when she flies through the hole in pursuit of both super-pets.
DC Retroactive Superman: Subverted in "The 70's" issue whem Superman and Supergirl believe to see Metallo breaking through a wall into the Fortress of Solitude. However, it turns out to be a hallucination suffered by Superman.
The Life Story of Superman: When Superman frees himself from Luthor's trap, he is in a hurry to defuse a bomb before it explodes, so he smashes his way through the underground lair's ceiling rather than looking for the exit.
"The Super Dog from Krypton": When Krypto is locked up in the dog-catcher's van, he smashes himself through the car's rear to escape.

Done on Knight Rider more times than anyone would care to count. Often justified in that there isn't a door, at least not one that KITT can fit through, anyway. But sometimes, even when there's a proper exit, walls are sacrificed for the sake of speed, or perhaps just because KITT busting through a barrier makes for a really awesome shot.

Battlefield: Bad Company
The same thing is possible in this game, which allows you to blow holes in almost everything. It's often the best way to get to snipers or MG nests.
Invoked a LOT in Bad Company 2. The walls and doors are all destroyable by rockets and grenades and the like (and doors and fences can be shot and knifed). There's one level in single player where you're trying to spend very little time outside for risk of freezing to death, and you need to run from house to house to get warm. Typically the fastest way to do this was to take a rocket launcher and blow a hole in the next building. How the buildings don't lose their heat after this you'll never know. If you're playing multiplayer, and moving at all, odds are you'll end up doing this a few times in just one match!

Kim Possible has a couple of examples where somebody does actually go through the door, but by smashing rather than opening it:
In "Bonding", Ron uses a pair of oversized dogs to bust down the door of Professor Dementor's secret lab. Dementor is the one Straight Man in the show's rogues gallery.
In "Mad Dogs and Aliens", Drakken instructs Warmonga to get rid of Shego, first saying "Show her the door," and then (after she simply tells Shego where to find the door) "Make her leave through the door." The latter instruction is also followed a bit too literally.

Animorphs:
At one point in the series, Jake morphs into a rhinoceros to charge through a compound. He finds that it's easier to rhino through doors than walls, but his vision is so bad in that shape that he has a little trouble seeing which is which in time.
Averted later in the same book when Jake (now a tiger) tells Marco (a gorilla) to open a door. Marco prepares to knock the door off its hinges, for Jake to tell him to try the knob first. He does.

Cerberus Daily News has a justified example. During the "Down with Discord" storyline, the battle converges on Discord's personal quarters. He has his guards with him, and they are covering the door against a small army of mercenaries. Then Desta T'Res takes out a demo charge, and blows a hole in the wall. Justified by the fact that the door was heavily guarded.

Two different cars smash through the wall of his house, causing him to shriek: "Doesn't anyone know where the damn driveway is?!"

The Professionals like to kick down doors all the time, but in "The Female Factor" Doyle insists on investigating the suspicious death of a High-Class Call Girl. The door to her house has a security lock, so Doyle climbs up to the window, casually stands with his back to it and kicks in the glass with his heel, setting off the alarm—which is only just being shut off by an alarm technician when Cowley turns up to give Doyle a roasting.

Helluva Boss
Happens four times in Blitzo's office in the fourth episode. While Loona points out the door would be easier the first time, the fourth time results in Blitzo yelling at everybody to stop breaking his walls as he'd be having Moxxie fix it all. In the same episode, Blitzo jumps through a window to convince his target to go through with suicide while Moxxie and Millie enter through the door next to said window.
It happens again in Season 2's third episode, this time with the hole being made by a helicopter. Blitzø, Moxxie, and Millie later return to the office in the same copter (through the same hole, however).

Happened at least twice in Family Matters:
Eddie, being the designated recipient of each week's Anvilicious Aesop, tries to drive a car after failing his license exam, guilty of the classic cliché, "I did it to look cool and impress my girlfriend"- and promptly wipes out half the front entrance of the Winslow household.
Another episode has Eddie and Waldo trying to make sense of a snowmobile — hilarity ensues.

Ultimate Spider-Man: Spider-Man and Kingpin end up in a kind of passive aggressive war over Spider-Man's tendency to dramatically crash through the windows of Kingpin's office to intimidate him. Kingpin eventually gets fed up with it and has his windows reinforced, causing Spidey to comically smack into one and fall to the street when he tries to interrupt a board meeting.

Keith Moon of The Who had a few instances of this:
Alice Cooper told a story where Keith left his tape recorder in Pete Townshend's room. Unable to wake Pete, Keith dug a hole through the wall to retrieve it. When the hotel manager saw it, Keith claimed rats did it.
During a tour with The Small Faces, he dug a hole through the wall to ask their drummer, Kenney Jones (who would take Keith's place in The Who after his death), if he wanted to go for a drink.
Once, Keith arrived at a hotel in his Rolls Royce. When he and his driver got out, they were told they couldn't park there. Keith took the keys, got behind the wheel and drove the car through the front of the hotel, right up to the front desk. He then tossed the keys to the shocked desk clerk and asked him to have it parked.

Edge of Tomorrow: The protagonists are wearing Powered Armor, so when they need to make use of an abandoned car quickly (knowing that the enemy is waiting in ambush) they just rip the doors off, which also gives them room to dive inside wearing said armor. While they're driving off, an announcer on the radio is advising citizens, "If you are in a vehicle, please lock your doors and stay inside." A Mimic then ambushes them, forcing Cage to tear off the roof so he has a clear field of fire.

In the flashback showing just how macho "El Macho" was, after drinking rattlesnake venom said Macho Latino exits from a bar through the wall.
In the "fire alarm" scene, a Minion tears through the wall with a pair of axes, right next to the door. Another follows through the hole with a hose, and then a third (carrying a megaphone and saying Bee-Do) does use the door.

In issue #240, a mother and two kids are trapped on the top floor of a burning skyscraper. Superman leaps upwards, falls on the building's roof, breaking it, and lands inside the top floor.
In issue #241 Superman bursts through the wall of the Edge's apartment. This time he had not a good cause.

One Piece:
Garp bursts through a wall to beat Luffy's head. When his men ask him why he didn't use the door, Garp claims that his way was cooler. He then puts his men right to work on repairing the hole.
Both Gadetsu and Admiral Garp are prone to this, though Garp is at least polite enough to repair the hole later.
The end of chapter 346. Zoro cuts through a door while Luffy kicks through a wall.
Charlotte Oven introduces himself in the anime by just walking through the Chateau door, melting it on contact thanks to his powers, because he was in a hurry and didn't want to wait for the servants to open it.

Futurama:
Destructor, in the episode "Raging Bender", does this when first introduced. Though it's not like he could have actually fit through the door.
Calculon also does this in his haste to propose to a gender-bent Bender in "Bend Her" (It Makes Sense in Context).
Roberto once breaks himself and Bender out a robot asylum using this technique. He has Bender on a table, and the two have a conversation while Roberto is smashing through walls. When asked when they plan to escape, Roberto responds, "About five seconds ago." Zoom out to them on the lawn, and a hole punched in the building.

Parodied by Kyle Baker in his Plastic Man's run. Superman is nearly kept from his face-off with (then-president) Lex Luthor because the recent crisis had him rethinking his disregard for public property, and the little old lady receptionist guarding the door wouldn't let him in. Later, it's exaggerated by Superman's imperfect duplicate Bizarro, who refuses to use, not just the door, but the hole he left in the wall the first time.

A classic example, where Orpheus opens a portal on the ceiling of the room Doc is stuck in (don't ask) and falls onto the floor covered in ectoplasm, causing Doc to deadpan "We have a door, Orpheus."
In the fourth season finale, Brock does a variation on this trope. He used a grappling gun to get into the ceiling of a building, despite there being a ladder five feet away from him.

One The Fairly OddParents! episode, "Information Stupor Highway," had "parental battering rams", which are used by parents to break into their kids' rooms. They always say "(child's name), I'm respecting your privacy by knocking, but asserting my authority as a parent by coming in anyway" before doing it, and it's transparently obvious they just want to break something because they never give a kid the chance to open the door. Timmy's Dad also did the "never go through the same hole" joke, and mentioned he needs to remember to hire a contractor to repair the wall. Good thing that Timmy can just wish the wall fixed. The same cannot be said for other kids' poor, battered walls. And That's Terrible.

Kevin himself is not above using unnecessary force instead of a more mundane method of entry:
In "Andreas' Fault", the Forever Knights blast a hole in a building where Ben is signing autographs despite a double door being not three feet from one side of the hole. They apparently felt that they needed to enter in formation.
Referenced in "Fused" when bad guy Agregor crashes through the ceiling... twice. The second leading a rather annoyed Kevin to tell him there's a door.

Spider-Man:
Inverted in The Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #303, when Silver Sable has The Daily Bugle contact Spidey to ask to meet with him. Spidey decides to be direct, and simply go to the office waiting room of the Symkarian Embassy; eventually, Silver comes out, upset because he's scaring away her appointments, and asks, "Don't you usually come in through the window?"
Ultimate Spider-Man: Spider-Man and Kingpin end up in a kind of passive aggressive war over Spider-Man's tendency to dramatically crash through the windows of Kingpin's office to intimidate him. Kingpin eventually gets fed up with it and has his windows reinforced, causing Spidey to comically smack into one and fall to the street when he tries to interrupt a board meeting.

The Incredible Hulk:
During Peter David's run on The Incredible Hulk (1968), when he had the brains of Banner in the Hulk's body, he decides to sneak out the back way by creating a back way. Subverted in a later punch up with Captain America, where despite being inside a fragile house, nothing is damaged. He's thrown cleanly out the front door thanks to Cap's judo skills.
Broken subversion in Earth X: Bruce Banner (separated from the Hulk) appears to be telling Hulk to be careful with Dr. Strange's walls. But he tells Hulk "We don't need to use a door here", apparently a typo for "We need to use a door" or "We don't need to make a door". Hulk uses door anyway.

In Deus Ex: Human Revolution, there's an augmentation which lets the player punch through walls. If a guard is positioned behind it, Adam (the protagonist) will snap the guard's neck in the process. This can be annoying if you're trying to do a Pacifist Run.

Fairy Tail:
Natsu does this often. Kageyama lampshaded Natsu's searching method during the Lullaby arc.
Gildarts has the power to destroy anything he touches and he's very absent-minded, which is a very bad combination when structures are involved. He's so accident-prone with his Crush powers that Magnolia actually has a Gildarts Shift that will automatically rearrange the city to have a straight road to the Fairy Tail guild hall, just so he won't accidentally destroy some buildings on his way over.

In Wolfenstein (2009), it is extremely common for scripted battles against Heavy Troopers to begin with them crashing through a nearby wall - the game's initial fight with this enemy type plays out this way, setting the stage for future encounters. Special mention goes to one particular Heavy Trooper in the Cannery level, who is programmed to not only make his entrance via smashing his way out of a train car, but also smash through a second wall to enter a nearby building should the player take cover inside.

The Powerpuff Girls:
It is a Running Gag that the Powerpuff Girls always leave the building they are in by smashing through the ceiling.
In their origin story, it was revealed that the Professor's house did not originally have the three large circular windows on the top floor. The Powerpuff Girls cut them out with their laser vision so they could leave easily and quickly without (relatively) damaging the house.
Mojo Jojo complains a few times that the Girls smashing through the walls of his evil lair has cost him a lot of money in repairs. Mojo lampshades this in the comic book story "Micro Managing" (DC run, issue #68) when Blossom arrives to discuss a matter with him and she knocks on the door:
A commercial for The Powerpuff Girls (1998) showed them smashing through the ceiling, only for the hole to be patched with wood, then bricks only to get destroyed each time. The last shot finally shows the hole turned into an opening with an "Exit" sign...only for the girls to break through the wall.
Lampshaded in one episode where a Hollywood producer making a movie starring the girls has a breakaway wall ready for them to smash through, not that they really need a wall that breaks easily.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic:
Rainbow Dash likes to do this every so often, bursting in from windows or dropping through the roof. Not always intentionally, though.
In "Hearts and Hooves Day", at several points Cheerilee (while under the effect of a Love Potion) opts to break down the doors rather than opening them.
"Games Ponies Play": When Ms. Peachbottom has had as much being indoors as she can take and bolts, and eventually runs through the racetrack, she hops two hurdles but just busts through three more. When a jar of some sort winds up over her head and ramps up her panic, she breaks through a door.
In "Castle Sweet Castle", Bulk Biceps plows through the wall to enter the spa, then plows through it again to exit. Annoyed, Aloe remarks, "I hate it when he does that." Bulk does it again in "On Your Marks", breaking through the Cutie Mark Crusaders' treehouse's floor several times.
"The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows": After Rarity tells Pinkie how horrible it would be to spoil a surprise for someone and living with the guilt FOREVER, Pinkie decides to take her leave... by pinball-ing out of the room and through a wall.
When cheering up Rainbow Dash in "Tanks for the Memories", the Mane Six enter her room the conventional manner, except for Pinkie, who simply hops in through a wall (while saying "Knock knock!"). It's a far less destructive example than most — as Rainbow Dash's house is made of clouds, the hole immediately seals itself.
"A Rockhoof and a Hard Place": To be fair, Rockhoof does use the door to the classroom... it's just that with his large bulk and the shovel on his back, he also resizes the doorframe at the same time. He later bursts through the wall of the same classroom when he believes there's a fire on the second floor, and evacuates the students through the hole.
"Between Dark and Dawn": Celestia and Luna could've went through the door to Sugarcube Corner like anypony else, but they instead decide to destroy the entire doorway.

Doctor Who:
"School Reunion": Children are in trouble, but the doors are locked, and Mickey is desperately trying to think of a way to get in. K-9 just says "We are in a car."
"Rise of the Cybermen": The Cybermen crash the party at the Tyler estate by smashing through the ground-floor windows.
"A Christmas Carol": Upon being asked why he entered through the window, the Doctor answers "Because if I was going out the window, I'd be going the wrong way. Pay attention."
""The Pyramid at the End of the World": The Doctor walks out of his TARDIS to find that it's been loaded onto a UN aircraft flying to the crisis area. When he asks how they got his TARDIS out of the room it was stored in, as the windows aren't big enough, he's told: "They are now."

There are a few straight examples in the Call of Duty series. In Modern Warfare 2, Soap and company need to go through the showers in a gulag by bursting through the wall. (If the player tries to plant the breach charge on the door, Soap will note that the enemies are watching it.) Modern Warfare 3 has a sequence where hostage takers grab a VIP and take him behind a reinforced blast door. Delta Force responds by placing breach charges on the floor above and breaching through the ceiling.

Asterix:
Obélix does use the door. Of course, by "use the door", we mean "punch the door out of its frame, then trample whoever was behind it."
In the animated version of Asterix and Cleopatra, a soldier tries to prevent this by rolling a large stone in front of the door — only to have Obelix crash through the wall right next to it.
He sometimes tries to knock, but even a gentle tap with his superhuman strength is enough to shatter stone, so it doesn't do much good.
He also resizes the door every now and then. And sometimes he doesn't bother punching the door — just walking through it as if it weren't there. He once rips open a cell door just with a belly push.
This frustrates the prison guards to no end. To whit, in "Asterix and the Goths":

Dragon Ball:
A hilarious subversion when Cell arrives at the TV station and blows up the entrance, but the automatic glass door is still intact, and Cell uses the door, despite the big freaking hole around the door. Then it's played straight when he just crushes the floors to reach the right TV channel.
Done earlier in the original series. When Goku is laying siege on the Red Ribbon Army, he comes to a room with no stairs, but there's an elevator. Goku doesn't know what an elevator is, so since there's no stairs he gets up to the next floor by jumping and crashing the floor above him.

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!;
Shaggy and Scooby are trapped in a cabin with the only door locked and the key on the outside (and no manual lock on the inside), so naturally, the two of them HAVE to break out some other way. Shaggy chooses to leap through the window—in order to grab the key, unlock the door, jump back through the window he busted, and open the now-unlocked front door.
As Shaggy and Scooby escape a villain (a supposed ghost of a Chinese emperor), this exchange occurs as they board up a door to hide behind:
This also happens when the gang thinks they have trapped Charlie the Funland robot, only for him to bust through the back of the crate they caught him in, and then through a wall behind that. This clues the gang in that this time they are not dealing with a mere human in a mask. Fortunately for them, at this point Charlie's creator arrives to lend a hand.

The phrase "drive-through convenience store" has become infamous on shows such as World's Dumbest... or similar series that show police archive footage or viewer submissions of crimes caught on tape. Simply put, someone drives their car through the front entrance (sometimes side) of a convenience store, strip mall entrance, or any place that has parking in front. This can range from being just a simple accident caused by a doddering 94-year old lady named Gertrude who floored the car by accident when she was trying to brake and park, drivers falling asleep at the wheel and running off the road, a drunken dumbass at the wheel, or a flat-out breaking-and-entering robbery. If the latter case is true, it's also often used as a means to try and hitch something like a chain from the car to an ATM machine so the robbers can try to uproot it from its post the moment they step on the gas. And if it involves actual people having to run for cover to avoid being hit by the car or flying debris, it turns into something in the same vein of Grand Theft Auto — especially if a gas station pump also gets nailed and bursts into flames, along with any unfortunate vehicles nearby.

In XCOM 2, Andromedons, Sectopods, and Gatekeepers will crash through walls rather than use doors (even big ones), even while idly patrolling their own building if they haven't noticed you yet. It's even worse once they actually notice you and get in attack position, the Sectopod raising several stories tall to wreak even more destruction as it moves.

Diablo III added this in the form of a potion update, allowing you to burst through enemy-summoned walls. Justified, as the "door" may be a yard-long gap filled with lethal toxic puddles, arcane sentry turrets, exploding ice bubbles, lava, or a really angry monster, and your normal teleport ability might be on cooldown or out of gas. So grab your Kulle-Aid and scream "OH YEAH"!

Discussed in Batman: Wayne Family Adventures comic "No Doors Allowed". Jason and Cassandra get on Duke's case because he's defying the trope and it's an unspoken Bat-rule to not use a door. They proceed to showcase iconic Bat-entrances before Duke ultimately tells them if that their enemies are expecting them, just use the door and they won't expect it. It works.

In the Fruits Basket anime it becomes a Running Gag that people keep destroying Harem Nanny Shigure's house, and he says this line at least once when someone bursts through the screen. In Shigure's case, he's probably good-naturedly remarking on that very fact. Kagura is later shown spending most of the night trying (and failing) to fix the screen after she wrecks it even more than usual.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer:
Glory once decides to make an entrance by ripping out the entire wall.
Bad guys liked to smash through the windows all the time. Thank goodness Xander develops carpentry skills. Oddly, despite repeated instances, the windows are never armored. To his credit, Xander does eventually realize the futility of repairing windows that were smashed through on a weekly basis and just gives up. What makes it funnier? Once he gives up on fixing the picture window (which at that point was getting smashed in seemingly every other Tuesday, he just boarded it up with cheap particle board. From that point on, nobody ever tried to break into the house again.
An inversion in a halloween episode: A "Haunted House" has turned into a real haunted house and the front door had disappeared. Luckily Giles shows up with a bag of tricks to create a door and pulls a Boring, but Practical chainsaw from the bag.
The Nerd Trio like to get into buildings at night by fast-roping down from a ceiling entrance, because that's what happens in the movies.

Men with Brooms: Cutter is laying on his bed in his motel room while next door, his former curling team mate Lennox is trying to avoid being beaten into a new reincarnation by a very large, very angry loan shark. At one point, Lennox abruptly gets sent head-first through the wall over Cutter's bed, before being sent through the wall entierly, followed by the giant loan shark. Cutter ends up having to knock the loan shark out by smashing his head in with a curling stone.note Not to worry, the loan shark is Made of Iron and survives one or two more such curling stones to the head with no apparent long term effects. Because it's funny.

This is simple expedience in XCOM, especially on terror missions, where civilians are apt to be standing behind doors blocking your way. As one online guide says, "That farmhouse was probably insured anyway."
The game can force you to invoke this from the inside, no less - having half your team inside a UFO and pinned down with the other half outside and unable to reach a doorway in time can be...aggravating. Tossing a grenade against the inside of the exterior wall will give your guys a clear line of fire.
The remake also allows for this-Yahtzee even mentions it: "I got the Heavy to blow a hole on the side of the UFO, leaving the Sniper to Double-Tap the problem out of existence."
The path finding can sometimes result in soldiers deciding to use a window to enter a building even if using the door would result in them traveling the same distance.
In XCOM 2, Andromedons, Sectopods, and Gatekeepers will crash through walls rather than use doors (even big ones), even while idly patrolling their own building if they haven't noticed you yet. It's even worse once they actually notice you and get in attack position, the Sectopod raising several stories tall to wreak even more destruction as it moves.
In XCOM: Chimera Squad, the combat is distilled into "breach a room, achieve an objective, rinse & repeat". The main door is usually not the best entrance; you often get the option to go through walls, windows, vents, secured doors, etc. for various advantages. Even the tutorial mission has you breaching through a wall.

Referenced in the first episode of Family Guy, and then parodied in several later episodes.
In "Peterotica," a car crashes through the wall of Kool-Aid Man's house, and he remarks "Wow! You know, from the other side, that's kind of annoying." After Kool-Aid has just finished repairing it, he says "Good as new!" — when Peter comes crashing back through the wall, and he shouts "OH, COME ON!!" Also in the courtroom, where the courtroom audience goes "Oh, NO!" and the Kool-Aid Man comes crashing through the wall, "OH YEAH!" When the Kool-Aid Man realizes where he is, he backs out in embarassment. The Judge tells everybody to stop doing that, "'Cause the f*ckin' Kool-Aid Man gonna keep showin' up."
Later revisited in a Call-Back episode to the pilot — this time, Kool-Aid Man misses his cue and looks even more awkward than before. Worse, when he backs out of the room, he falls over on his face and shatters his glass body, causing him to bleed fruit punch and swear at Brian and Stewie for making him screw up.

Superman Film Series:
The villains in Superman II do this a lot, especially when they take over the Daily Planet office, with Lex Luthor delivering the line. This is a Call-Back to the first movie when Superman tracks Luthor down to his hidden lair, and dramatically smashes through the wall rather than use the door, causing Lex to quip "It's open! Come in!". In the second movie, then, he's muttering to himself that not knowing how doors work seems to be a problem for Kryptonians in general.
In Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, Nuclear Man is no better, although he seems to enjoy bursting through floors and ceilings suspended by incredibly obvious wires.

In one of Doug's Quailman fantasies, Dr. Rubbersuit lures Quailman into his lab and then splits him up into a good and evil half in the hopes of enlisting the evil half's help. This backfires when the evil half simply wants to cause wanton destruction without anything to do with Dr. Rubbersuit, and he breaks out of the lab by flying through the roof. The good half then goes after him by flying through another section of roof, causing Dr. Rubbersuit to cry "Hey! At least use the same hole!"

Fantastic Four:
Lampshaded in issue #286, guest-starring The Avengers, where the two teams help Jean Grey get back into her old life after being replaced by the Phoenix for so long. They take her to parents' house but they weren't home, so Hercules breaks down the door and is chewed out by Jean, who points out that there was a key beneath a paving stone meant for her and her sister. Captain America assures her they'll write her parents a check.
This is a common problem for Ben Grimm The Thing in most universes, due to being a giant rock-man. In fact, his first appearance had him involuntarily smashing through a wall and muttering, "Why must they build doorways so narrow?"
In the Ultimate Fantastic Four/Marvel Zombies crossover, Ultimate Reed Richards finds himself trapped in the Marvel Zombie universe with Magneto and a handful of human survivors. They are found by the rest of the Ultimate Fantastic Four and hurry to escape the building. Ben heroically breaks down a wall so they can get out and Reed points out that the door was right there.

Burn Notice likes justified versions of this.
In the pilot, Michael marks areas on a drug dealer's wall with duct tape as targeting for where he'll a) shoot him in the leg with a gun and homemade suppressor, and b) crash through the wall.
In "False Flag", Sam and Mike kick an air conditioner out of a wall so they can escape some gunmen through the resulting hole.
The season 1 finale "Loose Ends" has Michael drive his brother's pickup truck through a warehouse wall. They were in a hurry to rescue Fiona from more gunmen and Mike's voiceover notes that warehouse doors are often reinforced:
The season 3 finale has Sam and Fi drive her coupe through the front of a house. This was purely to scare the living daylights out of the small-time arms dealer on the opposite side prior to interrogation. Remarked on by Sam in the next scene:
In a season 6 episode, Sam uses a washing machine and a pipe to rip a hole in a laundry room wall to escape a gang.
The series finale has the team set up a bomb between a dumpster and a wall to blow their way into a building because all of the windows and doors have been mined.

In some of these maps, you'll encounter walls with gaping holes blasted through them and a doorway left untouched. One notable example has you following the very obvious trail of, and eventually catching up with, a huge fire demon.

Blade Runner 2049: When the Wallace Corporation are attacking Deckard's hideout, an Attack Drone fires a missile through the window, blowing up his spinner as he's running to it. To stop Deckard from being killed in the explosion, Officer K smashes straight through the wall and tackles him. Then a Wallace spinner flies through the broken window into the building and offloads their mooks.

S�suke from Full Metal Panic! tends to do this. In one instance, he ends up blasting a hole in the wall to get to the classroom next door... Instead of, you know, using the door. When asked why he responds that it's more efficient this way, which from his point of view is entirely true: On an actual battlefield, using the door is generally a very poor idea since they're natural chokepoints.

In The Super Hero Squad Show, the Hulk is... about as bad with doors as the other versions. At one point, he's told to use the door, so he rips the doors off of their hinges, and smashes them to pieces. Afterwards, he decided he preferred his way.

One time on The Other Wiki, someone vandalized a page on Kool-Aid saying that he was wanted for causing thousands of dollars of property damage and is still at large. While it wasn't kept, it was moved onto a section of the site dedicated to some actually funny edits.

The infected in Left 4 Dead can go through doors via smashing them to bits, but it takes time to do so unless there's a lot of infected banging on the doors and special infected can break down doors faster. However, the infected will also have no trouble just smashing through certain walls to reach you and forego doors entirely.

In Last Daughter of Krypton, Simon Tycho is looking for Supergirl as she's tearing his base and his troops down. Right when he is demanding that someone shows him where she is, the ground in front of him explodes and Supergirl flies in through the gap.
