Prison Cell Gate
Door and hatch,Uncommon,Deployable,Blueprint
The Prison Cell Gate has 300 placed health, and hammer repairs from broken cost 75 Metal Fragments.
What it takes to destroy the Prison Cell Gate with one siege weapon alone, each paid in what its own recipe asks: metal and fuel for the ram, sulfur and the rest for a propane bomb.
A battering ram head is worn out after 9 hits, and one hammer swing on it costs 16 High Quality Metal and gives it 3 more. The ram strikes once every 4.5 seconds with its engine running, which burns at least 0.1 Low Grade Fuel a second.
Every count starts from full health, with the Timed Explosive Charge and the Satchel Charge stuck on the Prison Cell Gate and Explosive 5.56 Rifle Ammo fired from an Assault Rifle.
A Satchel Charge fails to go off 20% of the time and a Beancan Grenade 15%, so carry spares.
What the Prison Cell Gate is looted from
Crates, barrels and NPCs that drop the Prison Cell Gate, most likely first
A repair bench charges 20% of the recipe to fix a broken item, less when it is only worn.
Each swing charges the share of the cost for 50 health, rounded up to whole resources, and restores as much health as it paid for, which can be more than 50. Nothing can be repaired for 30 seconds after it takes damage.

Prison Cell Gate crafting, blueprint progression, and recycling in Rust
Crafting Prison Cell Gate in Rust takes 25 seconds at a Workbench Level 2 once the 30 scrap blueprint node is unlocked, with all ballistics, crafting, and durability values read from the Rust game files. Shredding a spare copy at a green recycler recovers base materials at fifty percent yield (vs forty percent at safe-zone yellow units). Damaged copies repair at a Repair Bench for a fraction of recipe cost.
