Sheet Metal Door

The Sheet Metal Door is a highly popular choice in the survival game Rust for securing player bases. Known for its balance between cost-effectiveness and durability, it provides a solid defense against melee attacks and fire damage. While it's more resistant than basic wooden doors, it's important to note that the Sheet Metal Door is still vulnerable to explosives. Players often prefer it as an early to mid-tier door because it offers increased security without the high expense of the Armoured Door, which is considered its superior version in terms of blast resistance.

Building a secure base is crucial in Rust, and the Sheet Metal Door plays a significant role in this. It requires 150 Metal Fragments to craft and can be locked with a Code Lock or Key Lock for added security. It's a step up from the wooden door but still an affordable option for players looking to upgrade their defenses. Keep in mind that savvy raiders with enough explosives can overcome this barrier, so consider reinforcing your base with additional layers of protection or eventually upgrading to an Armoured Door as your resources permit. Also, Sheet Metal Doors are susceptible to damage from Timed Explosive Charges (C4) and rocket launchers, making it important to assess and improve your base's defensive capabilities regularly.
