When it comes to the number of satchels you need for an armored door, it really depends on the material it is made of. For example, stone walls are incredibly resistant, and they can only be damaged by Timed Explosives (C4). The average number of rockets needed to destroy a sheet metal wall is two, while an armored door will take up to six rockets.

Timed Explosives
To make Armored Doors, you’ll need a pair of Timed Explosive Charges. These explosives will detonate an armored door or wall, dealing up to 275 damage per explosion. This item can be found in the Launch Site and can be crafted for x20 explosives, 5 cloth, and 2 pieces of tech trash. After crafting, it will begin a 10-second timer to detonate the door or wall.
If you are in the mood for raiding, this explosive is probably the most useful you can use. You will need 20x Explosives, 5x Cloth, and two Tech Trash to craft a Timed Explosive Charge. Using a Timed Explosive Charge on an Armored Door can destroy it in seconds. Timed Explosives for armored doors are a great way to end a raid, as you’ll never be caught off guard again.
Beancan grenades
There are two ways to upgrade your doors: one is by using the Beancan grenade, which can be dropped by clicking the right mouse button. Alternatively, you can use a satchel charge, which does more damage but requires fewer grenades. The other option is to create a satchel charge by using raw materials such as coal and Sulfur.
In addition to their raiding ability, Beancan grenades can also be used to break doors and walls. As a bonus, they are a component of the Satchel Charge, a move in which a player must satchel the weapon. However, you cannot make a beancan grenade from an empty bean can. Therefore, you should always have a supply on hand.
Fire arrows
Besides slaying enemies, players can also use fire arrows to open doors. They have the additional advantage of connecting to the door crank. This will allow you to set enemies and items on fire. Moreover, fire arrows have higher damage value. This is an excellent early game raiding tool. To make fire arrows, you should research and find scraps from the Tier 1 Workbench tech tree. To find these, you can find small red toolboxes on ocean floats, monuments, and roadside trash piles.
Traditionally, fire was used to burn inflammable objects. The enemy had to divert his manpower and resources to make sure that the fire arrows did not hit the target. Fire arrows could set a target on fire in seconds if they were hit with just one or two good shots. However, flaming arrows are heavier and require some preparation. The flaming arrows can also cause damage to armored doors.
Explosives
If you are looking to break a sheet metal door, 4 satchels and 3 beancan grenades will do the trick. But how many satchels do you need for an armored door? The answer varies depending on the type of armored door. Three satchels are sufficient to break a sheet metal door, but you’ll need more to break a stone wall. You can even attach a C4 to a dino and detonate it to the door for maximum damage.
When aiming to shoot an armored door, use explosive charges or satchel-related items. They are more effective against sheet metal doors because they deal less damage and can be applied repeatedly, which is convenient if you’re attacking a single building. Satchel-type explosives also tend to have no splash damage radius, and are effective against doors made from sheet metal. However, you must aim to place the satchel on the door frame.
Explosives vs Satchel Charges
When it comes to attacking armored doors, there are several ways to take out these structures. Explosives, which can be found in monuments, deal a greater amount of damage than satchel charges. Satchel charges can also be researched for 125 scrap, making them more affordable than explosive satchels. Satchel charges can also be used to breach an enemy base through a weak spot.
The two most common ways to destroy armored doors are to use bombs and satchel charges. In general, you need three bombs for a metal building, while four for an armored one. Both types of armored doors have the same number of hit points as a ladder hatch, but they are much more powerful. If you want to destroy an armored door with just satchel charges, you should first try to demolish the foundations, wall frames, and any other structural elements before using explosives or rockets.
Crafting satchels
In order to craft satchels for an armored gate, you will first need 240 Gunpowder, 80 Metal Fragments, 1 ft Rope, and Beancan Grenades. Then, combine these items with 240 Gunpowder to create a Satchel Charge. It will take an additional 12 satchel charges to destroy an armored door. During the process, you may experience a delay, where the grenade explodes too close to you or blows up when you pick it up. This is a common problem, which can be addressed by crafting a satchel with a shorter fuse.
Another advantage of satchels is their damage, which is about the same as that of wooden doors and sheet metal. They will cause less damage on walls and armored doors, making them perfect for early raiding. However, satchels are unreliable, taking random times to detonate or not detonate at all. This makes rearming a satchel a risky endeavor.
