Sure the door can be fixed! Seems petty to quit over something like that. Is that REALLY your only issue with the job?? If so, talk to your boss about it or even HR. If you're that unhappy just quit, no need to give 2 weeks notice as you haven't been there that long. Could still come back to bite you!
You will probably get used to the noise after awhile. If I needed a job to pay the bills I'd stick it out longer to see if it's tolerable and you get used to the noise. If not, then quitting sooner rather than later will be easier on everyone.

I would want my employees to come to me about something like this rather than quit.
These are easy fixes. The could put those interlocking rubber floor mats on the floor and fix the door.
It seems ridiculous to me to be subjected to a loud banging door in an office when there is no need for that sort of noise. I also don't understand how the manager can expect employees to concentrate on their work when people are yelling across the room with hard floors (no carpets nor cubicle walls to absorb some of the sound). I can't believe I went against my gut feelings by accepting the offer but I need to take action asap especially as I am unavailable for on site interviews at other companies as long as I work here Mon-Fri in this remote location.
Staying will make it difficult for you to find another position. Obviously this one is not suitable for you. Do not include this employer on your resume, your period of employment is too short to be informative to subsequent employers. If you need to prepare a list of jobs for a security clearance then mention it, otherwise it is just a bad dream.
It really is better for the employer that you leave ASAP as they may still have backup candidates (going back to the well in HR speak).
I can't imagine working for a company that refuses to provide at minimum a lunch break...
If the decibel level in your workplace exceeds 90db in an 8hr period you have a right to wear hearing protection per OSHA.
How in the world do they not allow a lunch break? Isn't that federal law?
