Why isn't my Giant Metal Hatchframe spawn command working?

Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalCeilingWithTrapdoorGiant 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.

Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalCeilingWithTrapdoorGiant 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.
