Have a peek through the peep hole, and if you think that it is safe to do so, open the door and ask the person who is knocking!

It worked well for Quentin Bryce.

Usher of the Black Rod?
The Opening of Parliament:
Black Rod, please let the members of the House of Representatives know that I desire their attendance in the Senate chamber.
Black Rod will bow to the Governor-General and proceed across the Members’ Hall and knock three times on the door of the House of Representatives. Having been announced by the Serjeant-at-Arms, Black Rod will advance to the Bar of the House where he/she will bow to the Speaker.
