'''Shield doors''' are [[Covenant]],<ref>'''[[Halo 3]]''', ''multiplayer map [[Snowbound (Level)|Snowbound]]''</ref> [[Forerunner]]<ref>'''[[Halo 3]]''', ''multiplayer map [[Epitaph (Level)|Epitaph]]''</ref> and [[human]]-created [[energy barrier]]s that allow people through while repelling [[plasma]], gunfire, [[vehicles]] and virtually any other objects.
