About

The Giant Metal Trapdoor is a buildable structure that spans a larger opening than standard trapdoors, making it useful for sealing off areas to creatures or players without the footprint of a full doorway setup. It functions as a hinged barrier that can be opened and closed, and like other metal structures it offers moderate durability and resource cost.

Use it in taming pens, breeding rooms, or any passage where you need flexible access control. Since it does not require a door frame to mount, it can fit into tighter architectural layouts than framed doors. Spawn one directly into your inventory with its GFI code if you need to test placement or stock a building project quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I spawn multiple Giant Metal Trapdoor at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalTrapdoorGiant 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Giant Metal Trapdoor. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
Is the Giant Metal Trapdoor spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?
Yes. The Giant Metal Trapdoor's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.
Why isn't my Giant Metal Trapdoor spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemStructure_MetalTrapdoorGiant), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalTrapdoorGiant 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
What's the full blueprint path of the Giant Metal Trapdoor?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Metal/PrimalItemStructure_MetalTrapdoorGiant.PrimalItemStructure_MetalTrapdoorGiant'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Metal/PrimalItemStructure_MetalTrapdoorGiant.PrimalItemStructure_MetalTrapdoorGiant'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Giant Metal Trapdoor?
