I have ADDED outlets by doors for convenience using things like vacuums and floor scribbers.

I have an outlet beside a door. Wait a minute ... make that 2 outlets beside doors. Oh, no ... make that three ... there's the one on the back deck by the sliding door. No code up here that says there's a required minimum distance.
