Gates are barriers found throughout Hallownest that require specific actions to be interacted with. While some are only opened with the use of leavers or keys, others are only closed during boss fights.

Locked Gates

Locked gates are recognizable by their keyholes and require a certain type of key to be opened. While the majority of locked gates are opened with simple keys, some of them have their own unique keys that visually match their gate. Inspecting these gates describes some of the gates features, giving clues as to which key matches which gate.

Although the door leading to the abyss is also a locked gate, it cannot be inspected.

Lever-Operated Gates

Lever-operated gates cannot be directly interacted with, and can only be opened by hitting their corresponding lever with the Nail. A gate's lever is usually directly adjacent to it, however the gate itself often forces the Knight to take a different route around the gate to reach its lever.

Some leavers open multiple gates at a time.
