Hi,
Yesterday we learned about the order of Chanukah and Shabbat candles.
On Shabbat one may not perform an action which will definitely result in a violation of Shabbat, even if that result is unintended. Therefore, one may not open a door opposite a flame if the resulting draft is guaranteed to increase or diminish the flame.
Therefore: When lighting the Menorah on Friday, make sure that the Menorah will not be directly exposed to open doors as you enter or leave the room on Shabbat.
[Note: The same will apply, every week, for Shabbat candles!]
(Code of Jewish Law Orach Chaim 680:1; Mishneh Berurah 680:2, 4),
Have a great day,
Mordechai
