Blast door

A blast door, or shield door, was a type of secured door that was used in numerous types of facilities, including military installations and starships.
==History==
When the Trade Federation blockaded the planet Naboo, blast doors were used aboard their Lucrehulks. These ships also contained external blast doors over entrances to the reactor, that would fail and open if the control tower was damaged; a result of a key structural flaw.
During the Clone Wars, the Rishi Station on the Rishi Moon had blast doors that were infiltrated by the Separatist Alliance in a short battle.
On a massive space station known as the Death Star—during the reign of the Galactic Empire—blast doors were used to secure the station's hangar bays.
==Behind the scenes==
The sound for the doors opening and closing was created via paper sliding into and out of an envelope.Nat (2017-06-15). "The Opening Door Sound in Star Wars is Somewhat of a Surprise". TVOvermind.
