This may be another daft suggestion by me but here goes anyway.... why not
mount the PIRs on the ceiling facing down just in front of the door, as you
oper the door the sensor would trigger before you got into the room (unless
you were running!). You'd probably need another sensor 'further in the
room'
for once-you-were-in-there detection. This assumes that you close doors
behind you though...
