Metal door from Super Metroid.
Metal Doors are similar in appearance and accessibility to De-energized Doors, and appear in the 2D Metroid games. When Samus enters a room, the door behind her may lock and other times, she will find an area with several Metal Doors already in place. Usually they will only deactivate, allowing Samus to open them, after she has completed a task. The task usually involves purging the area of enemy hostiles, killing a boss, or returning power to machinery, however, some Metal Doors will never open and serve as one way passages through an area.
Note: Any Doors can "become" Metal Doors, there are not actually any Doors like this normally. The Sealed Doors and Blast Shields of the Prime Series are most likely the same as the Metal Doors.
