Also when a ship docks in a bigger ship, it has to go through a airlock so the people can get out -is that what the hangar bay doors are for?

Hangar bays and docking bays are often the same thing, and can be found planet side as well as in ships. They are often used when a vessel needs repairs, or refueling services as well.
