The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
How can I get through this doorway?
1 of 5: If you've played the main Half-Life 2 game, you're probably used to bashing such boards with the crowbar.
2 of 5: Since you don't have a crowbar now, you'll have to settle for using the gravity gun.
3 of 5: Hit each board with a Primary Fire burst to knock it out of the way.
4 of 5: The second board is way too high up to get in your way, so you only really have to knock off the lower board.
5 of 5: An alternative is to crouch-walk under the lower board, after which Alyx will shoot it off so she can get through.
