Metal Door — Detailed Guide

A lockable metal door

Doors in ARK: Survival Evolved close off the entrance to a structure and keep the elements out, and the Metal Door is the fourth one available, according to the ARK Wiki. Its item text describes a stable door of concrete plated with metal, one that can be locked for security.

Placing and locking it

The door only fits inside a doorframe. Once installed it can be locked or unlocked, letting tribemates through while keeping others out. The wiki adds that doors make no difference to a house's insulation, whether they are open, closed or missing.

Crafting the door

The engram unlocks at level 45 for 12 engram points. The door is crafted in a Smithy or on an Argentavis Saddle from:

10 Metal Ingot or Scrap Metal Ingot
4 Cementing Paste or Achatina Paste

Our records give a crafting time of 3 seconds. A door weighs 4 and doors stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 400. In all, 72 crate types can contain one, including the Aberration Red and Aberration Surface Red crates.

What can break it

The game treats it as a metal structure, and the wiki lists the only things that can damage it: titans, bosses, corrupted and enraged creatures, the DodoRex, a Titanosaur, an Arthropluera, explosives, the Tek Rifle and Tek Saddles.
