I would like to know what techniques there are. I am interested particularly
in airlocks that can be opened from the inside (realistically, by minifigs);
affect the outside more than the inside and allow spaceships to dock with
others (this is for a spaceship model). Examples from previous MOCs would be
appreciated. I am also interested in interior airlocks (that don’t obstruct
the minifigs inside).

The Tribunal has 3 different
types of airlocks.
There’s the sealing door airlock that uses martian arms as a double-hinge
mechanism to allow the door to seat into the frame:
There’s the standard plate hinge door that is used all over the place by people
to make interior airlocks.
Then there’s an interior sliding door that works great for cabins, and uses only
2 bricks thickness. If you sink the tile at the base into the floor, the studs
around it hold the bottom in place, and the plate/tile construction holds the
top in place so they don’t fall out.
