Do you mean those sentences are not grammatically correct and natural in any situations?

@hhoc2000
1. "I made him stand at the door." is correct.
This sentence sounds like "command" or "order".
(**Note: it should be "stand" and not "standing")
2. "I had him standing at the door." is grammatically correct.
But, it actually means "I had him *waiting* at the door".
