The Metal Dinosaur Gateway is designed to house the  Metal Dinosaur Gate. Together, they provide protection against the outside world and keep dinosaurs contained inside of an area.

Construction

A Metal Dinosaur Gateway can be placed directly on the ground, without the need of first placing a Fence/Standard foundation. While it does not snap-fit to foundations or pre-existing walls, it will snap to fence foundations.

A  Gate can be placed in the hole and locked to provide a way to restrict access to the area while still allowing you and your dinosaurs a way through.

Incompatible Creatures

These creatures are too large to fit through a Metal Dinosaur Gateway.

The Managarmr and Morellatops can fit through this gateway if it is not equipped with a gate. This differs for the  Dinosaur Gateway and  Stone Dinosaur Gateway.

Notes/Trivia

  • The Gateway is 4 Wall Panels high and 2 Wall Panels wide. It fits exactly into a 2x4 hole.
  • Note that the Giganotosaurus cannot destroy nor walk over this gate, so it is somewhat cheap and proficient in giga-proofing your base if done correctly.

Painting and Color Regions

The  Metal Pillar and  Metal Dinosaur Gateway share the same paint regions.
