Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Shield doors were employed at Echo Base to seal the interior of the Alliance to Restore the Republic base from Hoth's sub-zero temperatures. Shield doors were used widely throughout the galaxy. Created by the inventors of the Hush-98 comlink, this technology was reliable, and took up very little amounts of energy to run, making it very efficient.

The Shield Doors used a thermal-capturing technology that allowed heat to be built up and distributed throughout Echo Base.
