About this sound

“Sometimes force is needed to open a locked door.”
Jayden, when he first posted this sound on YouTube in December 2023

That's somebody kicking a door twice, and the second one knocks it open. Both hits are loud, a woody crack and a short rattle after, with quiet in between. The clip's just over 6 seconds. Good for a raid scene.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • It gets loudest 0.19 s after it starts (0.31 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
  • It's done by 3.13 s. The last 3.03 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
  • It peaks at +1.6 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 3 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
  • It's −10.7 LUFS, about 8 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
