Orange Doors are doors that have an orange energy shield across them that can only be disabled by high amounts of heat. Thus these doors can only be opened by the Plasma Beam. They are only found in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. There is a similar Red Door in the original Metroid Prime.
Orange Doors appear at the midway point of the game, most frequently on SkyTown and the Pirate Homeworld. They can also be seen throughout Bryyo and the G.F.S. Valhalla.
